Datamatics Q1FY25 Revenue at ₹ 394 crore; EBITDA at ₹ 51 crore
1st August, 2024, Mumbai: Datamatics Global Services Ltd. (DGSL), a global Digital Technologies, Operations, and Experiences company, announced its standalone and consolidated financial results for the first quarter that ended June 30, 2024.
Commenting on Q1FY25 results, Rahul Kanodia, Vice Chairman and CEO, said, “Datamatics' Q1 revenue increased by 0.7% YoY to ₹ 394 crore, with Dextara contributing 3.1% to this growth. Organic growth, however, declined by 2.4% primarily due to market slowdown in the US and Europe and stagnant business growth. In Q2FY25, we expect to grow our topline and improve EBIT margin by 150-200 bps..”
He further added, “We remain bullish on the opportunities that AI offers. We are excited to announce that Datamatics has become one of the early receivers globally to earn ISO 42001:2023 Certification for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems. It also demonstrates our commitment to responsible and ethical AI, transparency, and continuous learning. This certification will help our customers manage risks and opportunities associated with AI while balancing innovation with governance for their enterprises.”.
