Hexaware Technologies expects its margin to improve by 100 basis points on account of Rupee depreciation. The company, which expects 10% growth in Calendar Year (CY) 13, expects the revenue growth to be better in the second half of the year.
Escalating worries over about the current account deficit and complicating the task for policy makers looking to revive an economy that grew at its slowest in a decade in 2012/13, Indian rupee has depreciated to record low level. Depreciation of Rupee usually augurs well for technologies companies, which derive major chunk of their revenue in foreign currencies.
