The company reported net revenues of Rs 6,944 crore, up by 17.3% from the year-ago period. Even in dollar terms, HCL Tech’s revenue and net profit were well above market expectations, dispelling doubts that the company’s gains have been solely due to the depreciation of the rupee against the US dollar. Net profit in dollar terms stood at $214 million, up by 37.3% from a year ago.
HCL Tech’s quarterly results were better than its larger peers Infosys and Wipro.
HCL Tech reports its financial year from July to June. The company’s annual revenues grew 22.4% to Rs 25,734 crore.

“We have consolidated our leadership position in the infrastructure management services and verticals like financial service and life sciences and healthcare,” Gupta added.
Roshni Nadar Malhotra, daughter of HCL chairman Shiv Nadar, has joined HCL Tech’s board as a non-executive director.
