Last year, after our analysis of Compaq’s performance, and also, after reviewing information from market sources, we concluded that Compaq did not have much to cheer about during the FY 2000-01. It registered NI revenue of only Rs 30 crore—showing a negative growth when compared to the Rs 60 crore NI revenue in the FY 1999-2000. Telecom and ISP are the segments from which a majority of its revenue come. And these segments were severely constrained when it came to spending. What seems to have affected Compaq’s performance, is the fact that big ISPs, which supposedly have big bucks to spend, do not form part of its portfolio this time. Caltiger was the only exception. Even, it had problems in paying up.
