Quarter overview

Quarterly earnings analysis

01

Profit before tax was ₹65.29 Cr for the reported quarter. EPS was ₹2.32 for the reported quarter.

02

For Q1 FY27, revenue stood at INR 287 crores, reflecting a growth of about 21.6% on a Y-o-Y basis, while showing a marginal sequential decline of about 0.6% in rupee terms. Dollar revenue came in at USD 30.3 million, representing a sequential shrinkage of about 3.5%, which was slightly higher than the anticipated guidance of 1.5% to 2%.

03

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was INR 58.6 crores, representing an adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.4%, impacted by annual wage revisions for approximately 70% of the workforce and seasonally high visa and marketing costs.

04

Sequential revenue decline was driven by delayed extensions and lack of follow-on work for certain CPG project-led engagements within Decision Point, the full-quarter impact of insourcing in a large tech account, and client-specific volume discounts in the BFSI space.

05

Profit after tax was ₹47.10 Cr for the reported quarter. EPS was ₹2.32 for the reported quarter.

02 · Why it moved

Why the quarter looked the way it did

What drove margins

Wage Revision Impact on EBITDA

Conducted wage revisions for approximately 70% of the workforce during Q1, delivering an average wage hike of about 8% across the organization, which created a 2.7% margin headwind.

Primary AI Margin Dynamics

Primary AI engagements currently involve higher on-site and forward-deployed engineering mix, creating a temporary margin drag, though management expects them to become margin-accretive over the medium term.

03 · Demand, customers & order book

Where demand is coming from

AI Revenue Classification Breakdown

Primary AI work (where clients directly interact with an AI solution) accounted for 35% of Q1 revenue, while total work impacted by AI (including secondary productivity-enhancing AI) reached approximately 80%.

CPG Practice Recovery Pipeline

Management expects a strong Q-o-Q growth bounce back of 25% plus in the next quarter within the consumer goods practice, backed by USD 2 million in extension opportunities and a broader pipeline of close to USD 26 million.

AI-Led Opportunities and Forward-Deployed Engineering

Generated 15-plus opportunities from AI prototypes and solutioning, with 14 additional opportunities under pursuit that could yield USD 0.5 million each in current-year revenues; the company is increasingly deploying a forward-deployed engineering model.

04 · Segments, products & geography

Which parts of the business are doing the work

Geography and market mix

Rest of World Revenue Contraction

Sequential decline in Rest of World revenues was tied directly to the CPG practice softness in Latin America and Europe following the completion of regional one-off projects.

05 · Capacity, projects & execution

What is being built, commissioned or delivered

Capacity, production and utilisation

Intensified AI Workforce Training

Accelerating internal learning and development with over 200 employees enrolled in Anthropic certification programs, building upon existing partnerships with Anthropic, OpenAI, Databricks, Snowflake, and major hyperscalers.

Restructuring into Chief Technology and AI Officer Organization

Creating a new Chief Technology and AI Officer organization to centralize AI products, agent foundry, alliances, and service delivery excellence into a unified center of excellence.

Agent Foundry Platform Initiative

Building an internal agent foundry platform designed to house reusable agents with governance, observability, and guardrails, which may eventually enable software-agent-based pricing models.

06 · Reported developments

What changed operationally

Strong Sequential Growth in TMT and Financial Services

Despite headwinds in the CPG segment, the TMT practice grew by about 4% sequentially, and the financial services practice demonstrated very strong execution, offsetting softness elsewhere.

New Logo Additions and AI Infrastructure Wins

Added six new accounts across financial services and auto components during the quarter, including a strategic win in the AI data center infrastructure space to support analytics on energy consumption and cooling metrics.

07 · Pressure points & risks

What is not going smoothly

CPG Segment Lumpy Project Impact

The CPG practice experienced a sharp dip due to fixed-fee, fixed-scope Decision Point projects not securing immediate follow-on work and delays in extensions, amounting to approximately USD 800,000 to 850,000 of non-recurring project revenue.

Tech Account Insourcing and BFSI Discounts

Full-quarter impact of client insourcing in a large tech account resulted in an impact of about INR 500,000, alongside a USD 400,000 one-time volume discount granted to a rapidly growing BFSI client.

08 · Management guidance & targets

What management is targeting from here

Full-Year Revenue Growth Guidance

Retained the full-year revenue growth guidance of 12%, underpinned by confirmed Q2 numbers and expected pipeline conversions, with potential upside if additional pipeline items materialize.

EBITDA Margin Guidance Range

Maintained full-year EBITDA margin guidance in the 21% to 22% range, noting that upcoming investments in the Chief Technology and AI Officer function and partnerships will offset potential currency tailwinds.

Important analyst Q&A

3 key points
Guidance Confidence and Pipeline Dependency

Management clarified that the 12% full-year guidance is supported by confirmed numbers for Q1 and Q2 alongside visible pipeline extensions, with further upside possible if larger prospective deals close.

Tokenization Costs and Client Environments

Management noted that tokenization costs are currently incurred and monitored directly by clients within their own tech stacks in 95% of use cases, shielding service providers from direct token cost exposure.

Contract Structure Breakdown

Project-led work accounts for 15% to 18% of the portfolio, managed services comprise 65% to 70%, and pure T&M/augmentation work makes up the remainder.
