Happiest Minds Technologies, a mid-tier IT services firm, reported a 16% year-on-year drop in its profit after tax (PAT), which fell to ₹50 crore. The decrease was mainly due to higher finance costs.

Despite the lower PAT, the company’s revenue grew by 27.5%, reaching ₹553 crore compared to the same quarter last year.

Healthy Demand Across Sectors

Joseph Anantharaju, Executive Vice Chairman and CEO of Product and Digital Engineering Services (PDES) noted strong demand from sectors such as BFSI, healthcare, consumer packaged goods (CPG), and manufacturing. He also mentioned that even larger IT services companies are beginning to see improvements after a prolonged downturn.

Strategy and Future Plans

Happiest Minds emphasises its focus on delivering high-quality digital services. The company is working on increasing its net new growth opportunities and expanding its large customer base. It is also diversifying its revenue through recent acquisitions, which help spread its business across different regions and industries.

New GenAI Initiatives

Looking ahead, the firm plans to establish a GenAI business unit, organise its operations into 6 industry-specific groups, and appoint a Chief Growth Officer. Executive Chairman Ashok Soota mentioned that the company aims to integrate generative AI features into its products and services, providing a competitive edge. Currently, Happiest Minds has generated revenue of $3 million from GenAI projects and has about 15 projects in the proof-of-concept stage, which are expected to result in significant orders in the next financial year.
