Here’s a challenge. Using the five clues below, identify the company that is being talked about here.
1 I started as a service provider division to my parent company more than 50 years ago and got spun off last decade to become an independently-listed company.
2 My market capitalisation is now more than double of my parent company. Despite the recent sharp decline in valuations, I have delivered more than 50 per cent CAGR to shareholders over the last five years.
3 Both my Chairman and MD completed their Master’s at Cambridge and MBA at Wharton.
4 A domestic market share of 60 per cent and presence in more than 80 countries have helped me become a top-three player globally in my addressable market.
5 Though I have a shareholder base of over one lakh, 1 per cent of shareholders own almost 95 per cent of equity, resulting in a negligible retail shareholder base.
