Consolidated net profit for the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30 rose to Rs 1,210 crore (Rs 12.1 billion) from Rs 854 crore (Rs 8.54 billion) a year earlier, HCL Technologies said on Wednesday.
That compares with the 10.6 billion rupee average of 24 analysts estimates according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S for the company, whose customers include Nokia Oyj, Xerox Corp and AstraZeneca Plc.
HCL Technologies follows a July-June fiscal year.
Bigger rivals Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys and Wipro beat expectations and provided brighter-than-expected outlooks earlier this month.
