The net profit revved up from Rs 1,102 crore in March quarter 2020-21.

The results were declared after market hours. 

The company, however, pointed out that there had been an impact of one-time payout in March 2021 quarter, which had depressed the bottomline numbers for that period. HCL Tech explained that seen on a comparative basis, the Q4 FY22 net profit is up about 24 per cent year-on-year.

"For comparison purposes, net income of Q4 FY21 and full year FY21 excludes the impact of one-time milestone bonus paid to employees ($78.8 million) and the DTL on Goodwill impact in the tax expense ($165.1 million) in Q4 FY21," a company statement said.
