Applauding this achievement, Vineet Nayar, Vice Chairman & CEO, HCL Technologies said,“We have doubled our quarterly revenues in just three years (JAS 2008 to JAS 2011) and crossed $1 billion quarterly revenue mark despite the tough economic environment. This tremendous momentum has been achieved thanks to our Employees First philosophy which has created a high performance organization and transformed our employees into unparalleled value creators.”
“This ‘Milestone Share Program’ is a small token of appreciation of our employees who are the reasons for all our success”, he added.
