Personnel Expenses

Personnel Expenses for the year amounted to

`

22,739.98 Million against

`

21,497.09 Million for the previous year, showing an

increase of 5.78%. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses were 67.56% during the year as compared to 70.86% in the

previous year,

The main reason for increase in Personnel Expenses is due to increase in headcount. The utilization of billable headcount

increased to 81.1% as against 79.2% in the previous year. The year also witnessed a shift of some of the onsite work to offshore

for few customers. These were the main reasons for the drop in the expenses as a percentage of revenue.
