Commenting on the progress for the quarter, Founder and Chairman Dinesh Saparamadu noted: “We remain committed to our long-term strategic objectives of carrying out product and market development initiatives. To support these initiatives, we are now in the midst of revamping our sales strategy and team at hBS. We are also committed to investments in retaining and recruitment of talent to support our growth story. To this end, the quarter saw hBS strengthen its investments in talent, particularly across the APAC region.”

The commencement of Phase-II of the Ugandan Government project in particular, was a key milestone for the company during the quarter. We believe that completion of Phase-I in FY22 is a testimony of PeoplesHR’s robustness and ability to deploy at a very large scale. In addition, we continued to see our efforts in markets such as Bangladesh, Philippines and the Maldives taking shape with stronger deal closures.
