ICICI Lombard General Insurance has officially confirmed an incident where one of its designated employees inadvertently disclosed unaudited draft financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025-26 (Q3 FY26) on a personal WhatsApp status. The incident occurred on January 9, 2026, around 5:44 p.m. IST, when the confidential data for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2025, was mistakenly uploaded. Upon becoming aware of the accidental sharing, the employee promptly deleted the WhatsApp status within approximately one hour. Following this, ICICI Lombard General Insurance informed the stock exchanges about the breach, emphasizing that the leaked figures were preliminary and subject to changes during the ongoing audit process. The company has initiated a thorough internal inquiry in compliance with SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, which include strict insider trading rules. As a precautionary measure and in adherence to good corporate governance practices, the insurer explicitly advised investors and the public not to rely on any information pertaining to its financial results until officially disseminated post-board approval. The company's board meeting to consider and approve the audited Q3 FY26 financial results is scheduled for January 13, 2026. This event highlights growing concerns about inadvertent disclosures of price-sensitive information through digital and social media platforms, following a similar incident reported by Hatsun Agro Product Ltd recently.
