The company earns its revenue by offering the following services:
The total income for FY 2023-24 has increased by 31.71% to ₹69.54 crores in FY 2023-24 from ₹52.80 crores in FY 2022-23. Revenue from operations has increased by 31.48% to ₹ ₹69.29 crores against ₹52.70 crores for FY 2022-23 due to the addition of new customers in the customer portfolio and additional services from the existing clientele. Other income has increased to ₹0.25 crores in FY 2023-24 from ₹0.10 crores in FY 2022-23, which was mainly due to an increase in interest income.
The company faces competition from various domestic and international players. The industry in which they operate is unorganised, competitive and highly fragmented in India. They compete based on a number of factors, including network of offices, client relationships, technological and operational excellence, and organic and inorganic growth and integration.
However, the company has over a decade of experience in the human resource segment, and they believe that they will not only maintain but also further enhance their position in the industry.
