Together with c3, the total number of seats in Manila amount to
over 1000. The total number of clients served by SOC, SOCA and c3
are 22. These clients include multinationals and Fortune 500 companies
in different verticals like pharmaceutical products, consumer electronics

Commenting on the SOC acquisition, HTMT COO K observed: "Source
One is an excellent strategic fit to our past acquisition of c3.
The current acquisition is a definitive step in the evolution of
HTMT into a global ITES company. Cross selling BPO, call center
services with multi lingual capabilities, and IT in diversified
verticals across different geographical locations now provides HTMT
a competitive edge against its peers leading to potential scaling
and higher profitability. We believe that the scaling up of both
SOCA and c3 operations based on excellent customer response to the
quality and competitiveness delivered, is likely to considerably
improve the topline and bottomline of the entities."
