The club then entered what would be a relatively short month compared to the other months of the season as they only played two matches in the I-League before the month long break till March. Dempo played their first match of the month on 2 February 2013 against Mumbai at the Duler Stadium in which the club had to score two goals in the final five minutes to draw the match 2–2 after both Evans Quao and David Opara scored for Mumbai in the 40th and 67th minute respectively and Peter Carvalho and Koko Sakibo scoring for Dempo in the 86th and 89th minutes respectively.[23] Dempo then ended the month on a sad note when they fell 2–1 to Air India at the Balewadi Sports Complex on 10 February 2013; Prakash Thorat and Henry Ezeh scored for Air India while new loan signing Johnny Menyongar scored the conciliation for Dempo in the 83rd minute.[24]

Dempo then began the post-break part of the I-League with yet another defeat at home to Sporting Goa by a score of 1–0 due to a 51st minute own goal from Rowilson Rodrigues.[25] The club then succumbed to their third defeat in a row on 28 March 2013 against Pune after giving up goals to Sukhwinder Singh and James Moga.[26] The losing streak then continued three days later when Dempo suffered their fourth defeat in a row against Mohun Bagan at the Kalyani Stadium in which Syed Nabi and Odafe Onyeka Okolie gave Bagan a 2–0 lead before Peter Carvalho scored the only goal for Dempo as the match ended 2–1 to Bagan.[27]
