Guidance & outlook
- Starting with financial highlights for Quarter 1 FY27: Q1 FY27 has been a quarter of broad-based revenue growth with profitability improvement and meaningful strengthening of the balance sheet, giving us a strong start to the financial year.
- While a sequential moderation of 20 basis points was largely a function of the annual merit cycle and variable pay reset that typically flow through in the 1st Quarter, along with an 11 basis point contraction in margin in Q1 over Q4 FY26 due to the one -time pass-through revenue of Rs 176 crore for the Labor Code.
Growth & demand
- 4,182 crores, reflecting a 15% year-on-year growth while a 7% quarter -on-quarter growth.
- This is a 21% year-on-year growth with a margin at 2.02%.
Margins & costs
- Our gross margin to EBITDA conversion remained healthy 50%, with double -digit EBITDA margins even after absorbing the annual merit cycles and the payouts which are typically for the end of the year, underscoring the structural strength of this business of ours.
- Malaysia delivered 55% year-on-year revenue growth, scaling to 873 headcount with an EBITDA margin of 4.1%.
Capex & expansion
- We continued to focus on higher-value segments such as construction, Manufacturing and VAS, supported by the investment in technology and AI-led sourcing and productivity initiatives.
- EBITDA for the quarter came in at Rs 85 crore, up 21% year-on-year, though down 2% quarter- on-quarter with margin at 2.02% and expansion of 11 basis points on a year-on-year basis.
Balance sheet & cash
