What is the story about?
ICICI Lombard General Insurance said a designated employee inadvertently uploaded information related to the company’s unaudited draft financial results for the third quarter (Q3) and nine months ended December 31, 2025, on their personal WhatsApp Status on January 9 at around 5:44 p.m.
The company said the post was deleted within an hour of being uploaded. While the information was in draft form and subject to changes during the ongoing audit, ICICI Lombard reported the incident to the stock exchanges as a precaution and in line with corporate governance practices.
The insurer has initiated an internal inquiry under SEBI’s Prohibition of Insider Trading Regulations, 2015, and its own Insider Trading Code. The outcome of the inquiry will be shared with the stock exchanges once concluded. The company also said the matter will be discussed in the upcoming meetings of the Audit Committee and Board of Directors.
ICICI Lombard cautioned investors not to rely on any financial information unless officially released by the company following board approval of audited results. The company will also make information about the incident available on its website.
This follows a similar incident on January 5, when a key managerial personnel at Hatsun Agro inadvertently shared draft Q3 financial results on their WhatsApp Status.
