Revenue from the general staffing business - which contributes more than 90% to the total - rose 6.7%. The division provides contractual roles across non-IT sectors, including manufacturing, retail and telecom. This lifted total revenue by 8.4% to 30.32 billion rupees. Revenue from the specialised staffing division - its second-largest vertical - rose 34.3%, driven by robust demand from global capability centres (GCCs), which offer software, finance, and R&D support to their global parent firms. "GCC focused approach in specialised staffing with diversified product offerings had helped with growth momentum in both revenues and profits," Managing Director Ashok Reddy said in a statement. "While BFSI headwinds in general staffing persist, contribution from retail, e-comm, consumer and telecom verticals are promising," Reddy said.
