Vishnu R Dusad , CEO and Managing Director , Nucleus Software said : “ We are a Product Company and Product companies’ revenues by definition have to be looked at with a long term perspective as they do depend on the timing of booking of new orders and the start date for implementation. While our markets are not affected significantly by the prevailing economic conditions, we have observed delays in conclusion of order negotiations.

In this quarter, the number of new project starts has fallen and has affected the reported numbers. The performance appraisal cycle for the Company is April and a Rs. 4.crore addition to cost has also happened at the same time. We believe that quarterly figures do not truly represent the long-term potential of the Company and that with our constant efforts to deliver quality and price performance, we will continue to grow both revenue and profits in the medium term “
