Infosys, one of India's largest IT companies, reported a 4.7 per cent rise in net profit in the September quarter. Despite a tough global economic environment, the company added about 2,500 employees in the quarter, reversing a six-quarter hiring downturn. This is an important development for Infosys, which has been struggling to retain employees in recent years. The company's strong financial performance and increase in employee strength signals growth and stability for the IT giant, making it a market leader in the tech industry.
