Guidance — 20 items
Question
qa
Are you confident of scaling even beyond USD 25 million order booking per quarter in the next year or next two - three years or will it be much above that, because we have not crossed that.
Answer
qa
But that will also eventually iron out in next two quarters, that you will be start seeing revenues, catching up with the equivalent of order booking.
Question
qa
For next two quarters, what would be your guidance?
Answer
qa
Revenue guidance per se, we normally don't give.
Answer
qa
But we have indicated that the order booking will be better than the previous two quarters.
Answer
qa
For the year also, it will be too much to expect even internally.
Answer
qa
We have said even in the earlier con call that our first target is to bring up the business to the normal, i.e., the pre COVID time order booking and only a year after that can be a better one.
Answer
qa
And that is the reason the revenue adjustment you'd see from the previous periods in 2017 and 18, roughly more than 50% used to be the licenses, what we used to book but that is not good for the company in long run, because it will be perpetual licenses you will sell and you will not be able to get the high recurring revenues.
Question
qa
Are we talking this for HCM business also, because ever since this business has been separated as into a separate Business Unit and the revenue data has been given, we have always talked about this business will be very cloud centric.
Answer
qa
So, suppose, if it is a five year if we book that will be consumed over the five-year period rather than in any one year.

Answer
Looking at the performance of HRP business, it’s very difficult to match the commentary with the performance.

Q&A — 2 exchanges
Q
From 2017 we started pivoting our company and its cloud, its HCM and we have divided this into three different business units, Aviation, HCM and ERP. We also started pivoting in terms of going into advanced markets. I'm only seeing the results - So I'm not seeing what is happening behind the scenes, maybe its moving there. Are we not getting our go to market strategy right? Or are we facing a lot of competition or our products are not up to the mark? or Is our competitive positioning is weak? What are the challenges that are not allowing us or maybe as investor I’m not able to see the results
Answer
This we had addressed in the last few investors calls, we can repeat again. One of the major business area is HRP, which basically if we see our competitive positioning is - we are having 65 plus countries payroll we have built on our own and majority of them in the Asia Pacific region, which has a severe impact for us from the go-to market, because the markets were shut and that region used to be the very high order booking region. This region is warrants meeting people and not digitally and remotely, otherwise, you won't be able to close the order. We also had unexpected downtime in our orde
