Shares of Sasken Communication Technologies (Sasken) have jumped 50.76% in four trading days from recent low of Rs 208.10 on 26 June 2014. The gains caught momentum after Sasken on Tuesday, 1 July 2014 received an arbitration award in its favor in the matter of Spreadtrum Communications Inc. The Sasken scrip jumped by maximum permissible level of 20% to settle at Rs 265.55 on Tuesday, 1 July 2014 boosted by the announcement.
Sasken during trading hours on Tuesday, 1 July 2014 said that the award recognizes that the agreement between the parties is in full force and as a result, Spreadtrum has been directed to pay $31.7 million within 30 days, towards royalties and interest on unpaid royalties. Further the arbitrator had directed Spreadtrum to continue to provide royalty reports and pay the contracted royalties on an ongoing basis.
In December 2012, Sasken approached American Arbitration Association's International Centre for Dispute Resolution over non-payment of royalties, which was contractually agreed by Spreadtrum for the software/IP licensed by Sasken as part of the joint development project undertaken by both the parties. Spreadtrum failed to meet the obligations to Sasken, a decision that resulted in arbitration filed by Sasken before the American Arbitration Association's International Centre for Dispute Resolution.
Spreadtrum is required to pay within 30 days an amount of $31.70 million and further continue to pay royalties for the Foreground IP provided by Sasken.
Sasken's consolidated net profit declined 18.4% to Rs 9.07 crore on 2.8% growth in revenue to Rs 116.32 crore in Q4 March 2014 over Q3 December 2013.
Sasken is a leader in providing engineering R&D and productized IT services to global tier 1 customers in the communications & devices, retail, insurance and independent software space.
