Infosys is among the major job creator in India, and the December 2018 quarter (Q3FY19) was no different as a total 7,762 employees were added on this quarter. However, even though the company increased its workforce, the Infosys Q3FY19 result was an utter disappointment in rupee terms. On the other hand, growth was positive in terms of constant currency. In its financial audit report, Infosys revealed that their employees base stood at 2,25,501 people as of December 2018. This was higher compared to 2,17,739 employees in September 2018 quarter.

Pravin Rao, COO at Infosys said, “Volume growth was strong and revenue productivity was stable despite Q3 being a seasonally weak quarter.
