Consolidated revenues rose by 14.2 per cent to Rs 587.3 crore in October-December quarter this fiscal compared to Rs 514.4 crore in the same quarter of 2012-13 fiscal. NIIT Technologies also announced that it secured a large $300 million deal with a 10-year period from a US-based client in the BFSI segment. Commenting on the performance, NIIT Technologies CEO and Joint Managing Director Arvind Thakur said: 'Strong growth in western markets, particularly in the US, contributed to the sequential growth in services.'

On decline in net profit, NIIT Technologies CFO Pratibha Advani said: 'There was a loss in other income as a result of revaluation of foreign currency assets and liabilities due to period end exchange difference resulting in a decline in net profits.'
