Risk factors
As stated in the offer document
Customer Concentration Risk
The top 10 customers contributed 49.84%, 52.17%, 45.30%, and 41.04% of revenue from operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, and Fiscals 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Loss of any key customer due to contract termination, financial deterioration, or competitive switching could materially and adversely impact the company's business, financial condition, and cash flows.
International Revenue Concentration and Geopolitical Risk
The company derives 90.06%, 88.71%, 80.59%, and 76.22% of revenue from operations from customers outside India, with North America alone contributing 79.56%, 81.70%, 75.34%, and 69.53% for the respective periods. Geopolitical tensions, trade restrictions, currency fluctuations, and anti-outsourcing legislation in these regions could significantly disrupt operations and financial performance.
Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Risk
As a technology-enabled CX and BPO provider, the company processes, stores, and transmits sensitive data including health records, banking information, and personally identifiable information, exposing it to cybersecurity threats such as hacking, ransomware, and phishing. Non-compliance with data protection laws across multiple jurisdictions (including GDPR, HIPAA, DPDPA 2023) could result in regulatory penalties of up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, reputational harm, and operational disruptions.
High Employee Expense and Attrition Risk
Employee expenses represented 67.53%, 65.62%, 65.83%, and 68.82% of revenue from operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, and Fiscals 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively, with CX employee attrition rates of 31.20%, 26.50%, 30.56%, and 32.15% over the same periods. Rising wages, competition for skilled talent, and inability to manage attrition could adversely affect margins, service quality, and financial performance.
Foreign Exchange Risk Without Hedging Arrangements
The company transacts a significant portion of its business in foreign currencies, primarily the U.S. Dollar, while reporting in Indian Rupees, and recorded net foreign exchange losses of ₹14.41 million and ₹25.45 million in Fiscals 2025 and 2024, respectively. The company currently has no hedging agreements in place, leaving it fully exposed to exchange rate volatility, which could materially impact profitability and margins.
Acquisition Integration and Inorganic Growth Risk
The company's growth strategy is heavily dependent on acquisitions, with future inorganic initiatives planned using IPO net proceeds for unidentified targets. Failure to identify suitable targets, integration difficulties, over-valuation, or inability to realize anticipated synergies could adversely affect growth, results of operations, and cash flows.
Goodwill and Intangible Asset Impairment Risk
Goodwill and other intangible assets represented 33.95% and 33.83% of total assets as of June 30, 2026, and March 31, 2026, respectively, with goodwill alone at ₹3,626.43 million as of June 30, 2026. Any future impairment to these assets could result in reported losses and materially adversely affect the company's reputation and financial condition.
