In dollar terms, the net profit stood at USD 118 million and revenues were USD 900 million in the period under review.
"Robust growth in key verticals this quarter underpins our belief in our strategy of continuous investment in capabilities," Tech Mahindra Executive Vice Chairman Vineet Nayyar said.
