"Business will grow by 12 to 13 per cent. We are confident about that, depending on where the dollar and rupee would go. But if you compare it with the previous years, we will probably add about $20 billion extra revenue this year. Last year we only added about $16 billion", he said.
According to him, IT and services sectors touched $148 billion revenues last year. On the impact of floods in Chennai on the IT industry, Reddy said most of the big companies have already taken precautionary measures and avoided troubles.
