He ruled out any layoffs and asserted that the company will in fact hire 1,000-plus people in the current financial year, over 800 of them in India."Infogain's global headcount currently stands at 6,000 and almost 5,000 of them are in India. On the market sentiments and tech spendings, Nevatia said there is some softness in the market but was quick to add that businesses have realized the importance of digitization during COVID and digital transformation for most companies is now a necessity.Given the focus on digital transformation, customers continue to spend, and not cut back, although in some cases, they may want more work in the same amount or demand sharper business cases."A quarter back there was a huge amount of uncertainty, but now I think the risk of things falling off the cliff is not there. Of course, the uncertainty continues. Customers, however, continue to spend money on digital transformation and so the impact is minimal," Nevatia.
