Robust annual EBITDA of ₹462 Cr at 21.4% margin, reflecting consistent operating profitability

BENGALURU, India and SEATTLE and LONDON, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Happiest Minds Technologies Limited (NSE: HAPPSTMNDS), a ‘Born Digital. Born Agile’, a digital transformation and IT solutions company, today announced its consolidated results for the Fourth quarter ended March 31, 2025, as approved by its Board of Directors.

Ashok Soota, Chairman & Chief Mentor, said, “Happiest Minds continues to show above-industry-leading growth this fiscal year. The ten strategic transformational changes that we rolled out are shaping Happiest Minds’ future. Our strategic initiatives, along with the continued commitment of our teams, have us well-positioned for strong double-digit organic growth in FY26 and beyond. Economists are projecting a slowdown in some of our largest markets; I want to emphasize that we have healthy pipelines of demand and do not see any recession-driven slowdown.”

Joseph Anantharaju, Co-Chairman & CEO, said, “The transformative initiatives we have launched over the last year are beginning to yield results and are laying a robust foundation for future growth. Our move to a vertical structure has resulted in accelerated growth in several verticals like Healthcare and BFSI. We continue to see an increase in the share of the Healthcare vertical, which saw large new deals totalling $20 Mn from 4 customers and these are likely to be repeated next year. The two transformations that we initiated around GenAI BU and the independent NN hunting team have seen a good buildup in the pipeline that should result in revenue growth. Our other initiatives around High Potential accounts, GCC and Private Equity pursuit are beginning to take hold and should start yielding results in the ensuing quarters.”

Venkatraman Narayanan, MD & CFO, said, “I am extremely happy to report on an annual growth of 26% in constant currency with an EBITDA of 21.4%, the latter, well in line with our guidance. Adjusted for a one-time bad debt and continued investments in Gen AI and Sales teams, Operating margin and EBIDTA continue to be industry leading and comparable to the previous year. PAT and EPS adjusted for acquisition related costs and exceptional item, a reliable measure of performance, continues to remain steady.”

Booking.com’s Latest Travel and Sustainability Research Reveals Australian Generational Paradox

Published

on

May 3, 2026

By

SYDNEY, May 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today Booking.com released its 11th annual research report into consumer attitudes and understanding of the social and environmental impact of travel. With insights from 32,500 travellers across 35 markets globally, including 1,000 from Australia, this year’s research highlights a generational paradox.

While 83% of Australian travellers say that more sustainable travel is important to them, older generations demonstrate greater commitment through concrete actions, despite younger generations often expressing stronger sustainability intentions.

Older generations demonstrate greater commitment through concrete sustainable actions, with almost two–thirds of Boomers across Asia Pacific (63%) saying they will shop more at local, independent stores on their trips, three–quarters (75%) planning to reduce general waste, and 63% intending to reduce energy consumption, higher than Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z.However, younger travellers are leading in cultural and conservation management; more than a quarter of Gen Z (27%) and Millennials (26%) participated in a tour or activity that contributed to the health or conservation of the local ecosystem or wildlife.Extreme weather is actively reshaping travel choices. Nearly three-quarters of Australian travellers said they consider extreme weather risk when choosing both destination (72%), and timing (75%), and 27% reported having cancelled or changed trip plans in the past twelve months due to extreme weather or natural disaster.Australian travellers are shifting when and where they travel, seeking reliable climates and comfort. 43% say they plan to avoid overcrowded tourist destinations, 42% plan to travel outside of peak season, and 26% will seek out destinations with cooler temperatures.In 2025, travellers booked more than 100 million room nights on Booking.com at accommodation partners with a third-party sustainability certification, including at 363 third-party certified Australian properties.
