In Q4FY24, revenue witnessed a growth of 3.6% on a sequential basis and 21.7% on a YoY basis. The recent acquisition of Decision Point Analytics marks a significant milestone, which will further bolster our capabilities in the CPG vertical and open a new geography in Latin America.

This was in-line with our commitment to improve margins driven by operating leverage from revenue growth and exercising strong fiscal discipline. Our investment strategy remains steadfast, encompassing both organic and inorganic avenues for growth. The acquisition of Decision Point Analytics will be partially funded through IPO proceeds and balance from the existing cash reserves.
