Go ahead, sir. Aditya Krishna: Thanks, Vinay. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us for Saksoft's earnings conference call to discuss our performance for the first quarter of financial year ‘27. I hope all of you have had the opportunity to review our financial results and investor presentation. I will begin by sharing the key business developments during the quarter, following which my colleague and our Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Niraj Ganeriwala, will take you through the financial performance in greater detail. The IT services industry continues to navigate a period of significant transformation. While macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainties have resulted in cautious customer decision- making, the underlying technology opportunity remains strong, where enterprises increasingly prioritizing AI, cloud modernization, cybersecurity, data, and automation. As AI moves from experimentation toward skilled adoption, we believe the industry is entering a new phase of growth, creating meaningful opportunities for companies that can combine technology expertise with deep understanding of customer needs and deliver measurable business outcomes. Q1, FY27 reflected the continuation of the demand softness that began to emerge toward the third quarter of the previous financial year. Customer decision-making has remained cautious in certain segments, and our top few clients continue to face near-term pressures that impacted technology spending and the timing of renewals and new engagements. In this environment, our diversified growth strategy is beginning to demonstrate its resilience. Our broad-based capabilities, presence across multiple industry segments, and focus on building deeper relationships with clients provide us with a strong foundation to navigate periods of uneven demand. We remain mindful of the near-term environment. Parallelly, we continue to make focus investments in our artificial intelligence capabilities, accelerators, and solutions. These investments are increasingly becoming an important differentiator in our ability to engage with customers around their evolving technology priorities. By combining our domain expertise with AI-led solutions, we are enabling customers to Page 2 of 12 Saksoft Limited August 10, 2026 accelerate transformation initiatives, improve productivity, reduce complexity, and generate measurable business value. Our AI capabilities are also helping us move higher in the customer value chain, strengthen our strategic relevance, and broaden the scope of our engagements. Our focus remains not only on developing technology capabilities, but also on ensuring that these capabilities are closely aligned with specific customer requirements and business outcomes. We therefore continue to invest in talent, industry-specific solutions, delivery excellence that can help us respond more effectively to changing customer needs. These investments are intended to support both near-term client priorities and longer-term opportunities arising from technology-led business transformation. We believe this combination of strong client relationships, differentiated capabilities, domain expertise, and disciplined investment will allow us to deepen existing relationships and expand our share of customer technology spending over time. During the quarter, we also strengthened our leadership team through a number of strategic appointments, including the appointment of Chief Growth Officer for Europe region and Business Unit Head for Emerging Verticals. These additions are an important step in strengthening our organizational capabilities and sharpening our focus on growth opportunities across our select industry verticals and regions where we are present. The enhanced leadership structure is expected to further strengthen our sales engine, improve market coverage, deepen customer engagement, and enhance alignment between our go-to-market and delivery organizations. As we look ahead, we remain focused on executing our strategy with discipline while continuing to invest selectively in the capabilities that will shape the next phase of our growth. Our focus investments in artificial intelligence, digital transformation, cloud, data, cybersecurity, automation, and industry-specific solutions, together with our strong and trusted client relationships, position us well to improve our growth trajectory as demand conditions normalize. We recognize that the near-term operating environment may continue to remain uneven, and we will remain disciplined in managing costs, prioritizing investments, and maintaining operational agility while pursuing attractive growth opportunities. With that, I would now like to invite Niraj to take you through the financial performance for the quarter. Niraj Ganeriwal: Thank you, Aditya.
