Looking forward to a strong year next fiscal despite global uncertainty:...

Key Highlights

• At least now, Harris said,”Whether we like the current environment or not, we’ve got certainty.
• What we are seeing is customers, against that uncertainty, make decisions which prompt an investment, and that’s what we’re looking to.
• That’s what we are intersecting with, and that’s what’s inspiring the confidence that we’ve got about Q4 and the next fiscal year.” He was responding to a query on the growth outlook in the midst of tariff wars and geopolitical uncertainty.
• For FY26, he said,”We will look to drive sequential double-digit growth (from) Q3 to Q4 and then we expect double digit growth organically next year.” In the third quarter ended December 31, 2025 the company had posted a consolidated revenue from operations at Rs 1,365.73 crore as against Rs 1,317.38 crore in the year-ago period.
• Referring to the company’s 75 million euros (over Rs 775 crore) acquisition of Germany-based ES-Tech GmbH and its subsidiaries last year, Harris said,”…that will represent about USD 40 million of additional business for us and we expect that business to grow…In addition to the organic double-digit growth, that business will be included in our numbers.” Noting that the company expects volume to translate into significant margin improvement, he said,”We are looking at a very good year next year, both top line and and bottom line.” When asked about possible hiring to meet growth expectations, Harris said,”As we move into the year (next fiscal), we don’t need any more resources, but as we move through the year and as the anticipated growth continues, then we will need to start to add headcount.” Despite the company investing very heavily in AI, he said,”We do not need to do any retrenchments in a material way, and we will drive incremental growth next year but it will be in a way that will complement the investments we are making in AI and digital.” The company has been investing very heavily and reskilling its teams to ensure that the capability matches the demand in the market, Harris said, adding “we have been relatively lean in terms of things like overhead and bench”.
