1. At a Glance
Hexaware Technologies is doing all the right things—AI, cloud, acquisitions, and “offices in Chicago with good coffee.” Q1 FY26 revenue at ₹3,261 Cr (+11% YoY), PAT at ₹380 Cr (+38% YoY). And they just acquired SMC Squared for up to $120M. So yeah, Hexaware’s not here to code quietly. It’s here to scale loud and scale global.
2. Introduction with Hook
Hexaware is that IT company you almost forgot existed—until it threw $120M at a US acquisition, got cozy with Fixie.ai and Abluva, and said, “Let’s do AI… the enterprise way.”
Think of it as TCS’s Gen-Z cousin — obsessed with GenAI, faster on the cloud, and now opening delivery centers like it’s launching Starbucks outlets.
3. Business Model (WTF Do They Even Do?)
Hexaware = AI-first digital IT + enterprise cloud + GCC solutions.
Their offerings include:
Digital Core Transformation (SAP, Oracle, MS)
CloudOps + DevSecOps
Data & AI services (with Ultravox AI voice bots)
GCC Enablement (SMC Squared acquisition is key here)
In short, they automate your backend while pitching like it’s ChatGPT-powered magic.
