Krishnakumar Natarajan, co-founder and executive chairman of Mindtree, says the timing of the L&T offer is worrisome as the company is just about to yield benefits of efforts it had put in the past so many years. In an interview with Debasis Mohapatra & Bibhu Ranjan Mishra, Natarajan says focus is to ring fence customers and employees. Edited excerpts:
Where do you stand today as far as L&T open offer is concerned?
As far as we are concerned, it's back to business. Our focus is on Mindtree and Mindtree Minds (employees), and also ensuring that we don't miss a bit of business.
