HCLTech Q3 FY25: Attrition and Headcount

HCLTech reported an attrition rate of 13.2% over the last 12 months, a slight increase from 12.8% in Q3 FY24.

This modest increase in attrition indicates the challenges the company faces in retaining its talent amidst a competitive job market.

New Collaborations and Partnerships

During the quarter, HCLTech secured new deals with a total contract value (TCV) of $2.1 billion.

One significant move was the acquisition of HPE’s Communication Technology Group assets, further expanding HCLTech’s capabilities and market presence.

These collaborations and partnerships are expected to drive future growth and innovation.

HCLTech is optimistic about increasing its workforce to support growth initiatives, particularly in areas such as artificial intelligence (AI) and digital transformation.
