PD
Mundhra, ED at eClerx Services Ltd, said
the growth outlook, even if they have a
flat Q4, may result to about Rs. 122
crore for the full year. It represents a
good 40-45% growth over the last year,
he told CNBC-TV18. He also said that
they don’t see any major signs of a
slowdown in the financial services
segment.
Excerpts from CNBC-TV18's exclusive
interview with PD Mundhra: |

Q:
A: |
Can you give us your numbers in terms
of topline and bottomline for the third
quarter?
Our
topline for the third quarter was about
Rs. 34.7 crore and net profit was about
12.5 crore. |

|
Q:
A: |
Give us an idea of what kind of a
growth you hope to be able to clock for
the full financial year going ahead?
As you
are aware, SEBI restrictions prohibit me
from speaking about that. If you compare
our H1 numbers and Q3 numbers, over the
nine months we have done about Rs. 87
crore in topline and even if we have a
flat Q4, then it may result to about Rs.
122 crore for the full year. So even at
those levels, I think it represents a
good 40-45% growth over the last year. |

Q:
A: |
Last time we spoke to you, you had
said that you were looking at
acquisitions in US and in Europe, how
close are you to signing one up?
Frankly,
we continue to look at opportunities all
the time, but not much has changed since
we last spoke on that subject, so I
wouldn’t say that there is something
very imminent. |

Q: |
How much growth do you see come in
from the inorganic space in FY09 since
that’s the financial that everybody is
watching out for in terms of growth? |
|
|
A: |
We operate in two major segments, one is
financial services, and other retail and
manufacturing. Both for this year and
the next looks like growth in both
segments will be approximately similar.
We don’t really see any major signs of a
slowdown in terms of our practice in
financial services. |
