Nazara's operating performance also came under pressure during the quarter. Ebitda declined 48% year-on-year to Rs 24.7 crore from Rs 47.4 crore a year ago.

Board To Consider Fund Raise
The company also said its board will meet on August 6 to consider a proposal to raise funds by issuing equity shares, convertible instruments or other eligible securities on a preferential basis, subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals.
