From the CMD’s Desk
Commenting on the company’s performance, Mr. Srinivasagopalan Rangarajan, Chairman & Managing Director, Data Patterns (India) Limited said, “We are pleased to report healthy and improved margins during H1 of FY 2024-25 driven by our continued focus on operational efficiency and more favourable product mix. Revenue for the quarter was impacted due to deferment of delivery schedule by the customer, of completed products. Our order inflow has been slower than anticipated in the first half which we expect to pick up during the second half. We are committed to continued growth trajectory while maintaining the healthy revenue growth and profitability.”
