Ashok Soota, who was the founding chairman and managing director of MindTree Limited, also served as the vice-chairman of Wipro Limited.

“Digital is growing much faster than the traditional market and, therefore, we are able to grow at 20-plus per cent compounded whereas the industry has come down to 8-10 per cent,” the news website reported quoting Soota.

He also added that the company’s 76 per cent business witnessed no influence amid the pandemic, at a time when novel coronavirus has impacted the IT industry, drastically.

All those who are willing to subscribe in the company’s IPO should take note that the revenues are highly dependent on a limited number of industry verticals. The revenues might get impacted in case of any decline in demand for outsourced services.
