Too early to decouple revenue, headcount, says Coforge CEO
Business Standard
|October 28, 2025
Mid-tier IT services company Coforge believes it is too early to call out whether the industry has started decoupling revenue from headcount growth due to the impact of artificial intelligence (AI), which is expected to improve productivity and efficiency.
The inextricable link between revenue and employee strength is a metric that has been used for the last three decades as a barometer of the health of the $284 billion industry.
This comes in the backdrop of the company reporting revenue per employee (RPE) of $70,000 for the second quarter September 30, 2025.
The company, however, did not share the previous year's number.
"I don't want to at this stage. I will exaggerate the impact. There has been good positive movement but it's still early days. I don't want to put a stake on the ground and say that this decoupling has started happening," Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Sudhir Singh told Business Standard during an interaction.
