Harish Chopra, founder of HCCA and current CEO, will now become a part of HGS and drive the HRO practice.

This acquisition marks HGS’ entry into the HRO domain. It builds on HGS’ global delivery capabilities and presents both companies an opportunity to cross-sell to their existing clients. Consequent to the transaction, HCCA would become a wholly owned subsidiary of HGS. This also enables HGS to get a footprint in the Middle Eastern market.

The HCCA transaction is the second acquisition by HGS in this month. Earlier this month, HGS had acquired On Line Support Inc (OLS) a profit making Canadian customer relationship management company with FY 2011 revenues of C$63.4 million. These two acquisitions, will add revenues of around $68 million annually to HGS. This will take HGS’ revenues from $242 million in FY 2011 to $320 million on an annualized run rate basis. i.e. an increase of over 30%. As both the acquisitions have healthy profits, the overall EPS of HGS is expected to increase.
