Ours is a highly motivated and committed team, and we believe in recognizing latent talent and encouraging excellent performers. Competition is fierce in this dynamic industry and thus we have to keep our best resources closer. These initiatives go a long way in building up employee confidence in the organization.
I am pleased to announce industry leading increments for our employees and the fact that the same has been announced even before the end of the financial year, which surely has pleasantly surprised our employees. The icing on the cake is 5 days filled with fun and frolic including an all-expenses paid excursion and R&R event in Bangkok, Thailand. We are flying over 600 employees for this gala event and will be spending, or shall I say investing Rs 5 Cr for the same.
