Special Correspondent

CHENNAI: Even as the its new 1,000-seater Rs. 38 crore state-of-the-art facility is set to go on stream on July 23, Allsec Technologies, a third party voice-based BPO (business process outsourcing) service provider, said that it would add another 1,200 jobs by March next.

Addressing a press conference here on Thursday, Adi Saravanan, Founder and President, said that Allsec had increased its headcount by 500 to 1,800 over the past three months. This number would go up to 3,000 by the end of the current financial year. The company had added couple of new clients during the first quarter, taking the total to 12.

To a question, Mr. Saravanan said 90 per cent of the company's revenue came from the U.S. With the commissioning of the new facility, he hoped the company could garner business from other countries like the U.K. and Australia.
