Sudhir Singh, chief executive officer, Coforge, said, “FY24 was an exemplary year where the firm grew 13.3% in CC organic terms, thus becoming one of the very few firms across the industry that was able to deliver on the annual growth guidance given at the beginning of FY24. The $400 Mn TCV deal signed in Q4, the 56% YoY increase in order intake and the 102-bps sequential margin improvement in Q4 set us up strongly to deliver robust growth in FY25 with expanded margins.”

The acquisition is expected to be completed by Q2FY25.
