HCLTech Q2 results show quarterly net income of ₹5,132 crore, up 21.2% from a year earlier, for the period ended September 30, 2026. The October 12 announcement also reported revenue of ₹35,620 crore and a dividend of ₹12 per share.
The practical question is which measure is growing. Rupee revenue, dollar revenue and currency-adjusted revenue are different comparisons; they should not be presented as one growth rate.

Why the currency basis matters
HCLTech reported 11.5% growth in rupee revenue, compared with 2.2% in US dollars and 2.6% in constant currency. Constant currency is a comparison intended to remove exchange-rate movements. Using the rupee figure alone to describe currency-adjusted growth would misstate the release.
The AI number is quarterly, not a full-year result
Advanced AI revenue was $219 million in the quarter. The company expressed that as $876 million annualized: a full-year pace based on the quarterly figure, not four completed quarters of revenue. It should not be treated as a forecast or an assured annual outcome.
For FY27, HCLTech set company revenue-growth guidance at 2.5%–4% in constant currency and an expected EBIT margin of 17.5%–18.5%. EBIT means earnings before interest and tax. These ranges are management expectations, not achieved results.
Dividend amount verified; dates not claimed here
The release confirms ₹12 per share. This report does not establish a shareholder’s eligibility, record date or payment date. Those details require the relevant dividend notice. It also makes no claim about the next trading session’s share-price reaction.
