Apart from the value buying and the technical cues in the market, expectations were also around the company’s final dividend announcement ahead of the fourth quarter results, considering Sonata Software has consistently issued dividends in the financial year ended 2025-26.
NSE data showed that Sonata Software issued a dividend of ₹4.4 per share in July 2025, then a ₹1.25 per share interim dividend in August 2025, and another three ₹1.25 per share interim dividends in August, November and February 2025, respectively.
In March 2026, Sonata Software announced that it had been recognised as a Microsoft Frontier Partner delivering an AI-first human-led approach that combines AI agents and human ingenuity to scale innovation and impact across Cloud & AI Platforms, AI Business Solutions, and Security.

In February 2026, the company announced that it had achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) Premier Tier Services Partner status in the AWS Partner Network (APN) by demonstrating expertise and a proven track record in helping customers design, architect, build, migrate, and manage workloads on AWS.
The company's plans are in line with these achievements as the IT firm aims to strengthen its offerings across cloud migration, application and data modernisation, AI-enabled engineering, and industry-specific accelerators.

The company’s surge in net profit was fuelled by the 53% rise in the revenues from core operations in the third quarter to ₹371 crore, compared to ₹241 crore in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year.
