“The entry of new mid-sized GCCs and the expansion of long-standing clients underscores Awfis’ ability to cater across the full spectrum of client requirements. This momentum is reflected in the growing contribution of large cohorts, with the 500+ seat cohort now representing 34% of our total portfolio highlighting the maturity, stability, and stickiness of our enterprise client base,” Awfis CMD Amit Ramani said.

The company also said that its board gave its in-principle nod to sell its “design and build” business to a wholly owned subsidiary. This subsidiarisation of its “Awfis Transform” business would enable the next phase of growth in the segment, Ramani said.
