Companys performance
The Company delivered a total revenue of 430 Crore in 2024 25 representing a 17% growth over the previous year. This growth reflects continued momentum across both the Products and Solutions and Customer Support Services (CSS) segments.
Revenue from the Products and Solutions segment increased by 15% to 307 Crore, up from 267 Crore in the previous year.

The Customer Support Services (CSS) segment delivered a robust performance, with revenue rising to 123 Crore from
