The Enterprise clientele grew by 50% since last year with major global partners across GCCs, Automobile, ITes, BFSI, Manufacturing and Services coming from US, UK, and Europe.
“It’s been a good consolidation year for us – we integrated core business operations and entities to drive efficient and scalable outcomes. We’re tracking FY25 very closely and expect stronger growth and profitability. We are well-capitalized, have zero net debt, and continue to generate a strong ROCE. upGrad’s integrated model is playing out very well as we straddle all aspects of formal and informal online learning & skilling for higher education and working professionals. Our Enterprise business is now a meaningful part of our current and future growth, as our international expansion – including key markets like North America and EMEA, continues to build on our vision of upGrad for the world, out of India,” said Mayank Kumar, Co-founder, upGrad.
