DAVOS: Infosys Technologies, India's No. 2 software exporter, sees the debt crisis in Europe as one of its top concerns.
"Although we can't do much about it, we can actually increase our footprint and get more customers," Chief Executive Kris Gopalakrishnan said at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Infosys, which counts Goldman Sachs, BT and BP among its clients, plans to hire more people in the new fiscal year, increasing its staff by around 25,000 from its current 127,000.
Infosys said it added 5,311 employees in October-December quarter of 2010. The company hired 11,067 employees in the third quarter this fiscal, but nearly 5,756 employees left the organisation during the same period, bringing the net addition at 5,311, the company said.
The company has also revised its revenue guidance upwards for the fiscal 2010-11 for the third consecutive time on a healthy double digit growth of 24 per cent year-on-year during the third quarter (Oct-Dec).
In a regulatory filing, the IT bellwether said its consolidated revenue for the fiscal under review would be Rs 27,445 crore, projecting 21 per cent year-on-year growth, according to the Indian accounting system.
