Geographic Revenue Split
Specific percentage split not disclosed, but the company noted a significant reduction in Export Service sales, which directly contributed to a 33% decline in the Net Profit Ratio. Industry-wide, Indian IT exports grew 9.2% to $181 billion while domestic revenue grew 5.6% to $64 billion.
Profitability Margins
