Happiest Minds sees need for strategy alignment as customers turn cautious

Mid-cap IT services firm Happiest Minds Technologies, which reported revenue growth of 18.7 per cent at Rs 464 crore, said the macro environment continues to be uncertain and clients are more focused on short-term rather than long-term impact.

Joseph Anantharaju, executive vice-chairman, said, “Overall, customers will be careful about how they spend money. They are prioritising initiatives that will give them either a cost or revenue advantage in the near-to-medium term. I think we need to find out what those initiatives or priorities are and align accordingly with the customer. That’s going to be key.”
