      Guten Abend,

      ich möchte auf eine sehr interessante Aktie aufmerksam machen, die innerhalb seit dem 28.11.2005 bereits 40Prozent zugelegt hat. Ich bin davon überzeugt, dass die makroökonomischen und auch mikroökonomischen Vorrausetzungen, in Bezug auf dieses Unternehmen, stimmen.
      40% wird wahrscheinlich für die Penny Trader zu wenig sein, jedoch ist diese Aktie sehr zu empfehlen. Indien hat ein beachtliches Wirtschaftswachstum aufzuweisen und es ist z.B nicht der Agrar-Sektor, der maßgebend dazu beiträgt, sondern der Dienstleistungs-Sektor. Und Unternehmen wie Sify werden zu den Big-Playern gehören.
      Aber anstatt hier einen Vortrag zu halten, können Sie das Posting, bei Interesse durchlesen.


      We are India`s pioneer & leader in Internet, Networking and e-Commerce services, and the first Indian Internet company to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market in the US . We provide integrated end-to-end solutions for both corporates & consumers, with a range of products and services delivered over a common Internet backbone infrastructure .

      Hallo zusammen,

      ich bin vor 5-6 Jahren mit etwa 6000 Euro eingestiegen. Jetzt sind die Teile nur noch 1/10 von dem Wert, was man in der Internet-Hype dafür zahlen musste. Der Wert wurde, neben Infosys (was definitiv besser gelaufen ist) im Emerging Markets Investor angepriesen. Seit dem aber nicht mehr erwähnt.

      Schön, dass es jetzt einen Thread gibt.

      Guten Tag,

      unglücklicherweise hast du auch investiert, als die große Technologieblase 2000 gewesen ist. Du bist nicht der einzige, der riesige Verluste gemacht hat.
      Nichts desto troz bin ich überzeugt davon, dass Sify vom momentan sehr starken Wirtschaftswachstum Indiens profitieren wird.
      Sify hat ein eine feste Stellung auf dem indischem Markt und die Machtstrukur in diesem Marksegment gleicht einem Monopol.
      Im Gegensatz zum Aggrarsektor, der von Jahr zu Jahr schrumpft, wachsen die Branchen, wie der IT-Sektor mit am stärksten.
      Das Konsumverhalten des durchschnittlichen Inders steigt jedes Jahr, da die Löhne kontinuierlich wachsen und davon profitiert natürlich Sify.
      Mehr Menschen sind in der Lage sich das Internet zu leisten und wenn man bedenkt was Indien für einen Milliardenmarkt zu bieten hat, dann kann man sich wohl denken, was das für den Kurs von Sify bedeuten würde.
      Es ist absolut realistisch das Sify wieder alten Höhen
      erreichen wird.
      Der Handel in Amerika ist beachtlich. Im Gegensatz was sich auf den deutschen Börsenplätzen abspielt, bin ich davon überzeugt, dass die amerikanischen Investoren sich im Klaren sind, wieviel Potential Sify hat.
      Natürlich gibt es Faktoren, die beachtet werden müßen, in Bezug auf einen Kurscrash von Sify.
      Aber diese Risiken muss jeder für sich selber einschätzen.

      Viele Grüße

      Nachkaufen! Du kannst für wenig Geld die Aktienzahl verdoppeln oder verdreifachen oder noch mehr aufstocken, und der Break-evan rückt in realistische Bereiche.

      Übrigens wird im Sohu-Thread auch über Sify geredet.

      hallo alle zusammen!!!
      sify`s faire Bewertung wäre Momentan bei ca. 50 Dollar!!! Denn solche Fantasievolen Aktien werden sonst fast immer mit dem 20 fachen des umsatzes bewertet.
      Signifikant ist auch die Tatsache das der Großinvestor Raju Vagesna 40% an Sify hält und ist jetzt auch nun der chairman!!
      Meiner Meinung nach werden wie die 50 Dollar dieses Jahrauf jeden falll erreichen. Was aber genau so spannend ist, wenn sify mal bei 50 ist, dann kommen erst die fonds und investieren, denn nun wäre die MKT mit 420 Mio noch zu klein!!! das würde den kurs sicherlich richtung 100 schiessen lassen. natürlcih alles spekulation, aber in dieser firma stimmt einfach alles, ich sag nur das is ne perle so eine aktie kann auch mit dem 1000 fachen bewertet werden.

      Hallo marino26

      interessant, wie kommst Du auf diese Bewertung ?
      Mir kommt es vor als wären wir wieder in den 200 Boomzeiten.

      Damals stand SIFY tatsächlich (Bsp: 4.4.00) bei 48 €.

      Auch Dein Prädikat (Zitat: "Denn solche Fantasievolen Aktien werden sonst fast immer mit dem 20 fachen des umsatzes bewertet") bringt nicht mehr Licht in die Frage: warum steigt SIFY in letzter Zeit....

      Wie kommst Du darauf dass der "faire" Wert bei 50 $ liegen soll ? Kann mich noch gut daran erinnern dass in dieser "Boomzeit" jeder Analyst plötzlich von utopischen Bewertungen gesprochen hat und nur wenige sich an den realen Kennzahlen eines Unternehmen orientierten.

      Ich finde es gut dass SIFY steigt. Nur scheint es sehr schwer zu sein an neue aktuelle Daten heranzukommen welche den Kurs begründen würden ....

      hallo geldfuchs
      erstmals sify notierte am 04.04.2000 wenn ich mich nicht irre bei ca. 424 Dollar!!!! Du musst den reverse split miteinberechnen!!!
      Ich komme auf 20fache, weil z.b. eine große firma wie oracle wird ja mit dem 20fachen bewertet, dannn sag ich mir eine firma die so viel fantasie hat wenn man sich den indischen markt anguckt, müsste doch mindestens damit bewertet werden!!!

      DER Kurs steigt seit November weil ein Großinvestor Namens Raju Vagesna 40% an Sify erworben hat, und der Firma ca.35 Millionen neues Geld in die Kassse gespült hat, somit hat sify jetzt ein cash bestand von ca. 70 Millionen Dollar!!!!
      Außerdem das unternehmen weisst jährliche wachstumsraten von 35% vor mit dem neuen geld können siue das wachstum beschleunigen und noch mehr wachsen.
      Im 4 Quartal, welches sie ende dieses monats berichten werden, wird das brak even erwartet!!! dies is auch ein weiterer Grund!!!

      Außerdem guck dir mal GOoogle oder baidu an, wie werden die bewertet, dagegen ist sify äüßerst günstig!!!!!

      Jetzt hätten wir die 10 auch in Euro !!!
      Hoffentlich gehts so weiter.

      Habe in einem anderen Thread folgendes Posting geschrieben und stell es hier auch noch rein:

      Nachdem Globetel anscheinend in eine "Wartephase" / Konsolidierung geht, habe ich vor zwei Tagen in SIFY getauscht und hoffe dass dort der Aufwärtstrend weitergeht.
      Globetel ist sicher auch interessant, aber ich wollte meinen Nerven nicht nochmal sowas antun wir vor kurzer Zeit, als ich mit GTE diesen mehrtätigen Absacker voll mitmachte.....

      Aber ich werde weiter genau beobachten und wie ein von mir geschätzter User hier immer wieder schreibt - unten kaufen. Vielleicht kommt nochmal ein Rücksetzer, wünsche es aber den Investierten nicht !

      gutes Gelingen & Grüsse vom winterlichen Lech / Arlberg

      Hallo Marino

      vielen Dank für die Infos. Wollen wir hoffen dass diese Aufwärtbewegung weitergeht und auch die Wachstumsprognosen eintreffen.

      Es stimmt es gab einen Reverse Split.
      Aber Du meinst eher Euro und nicht Dollar.

      Denn laut dem Portal hier gibt es keine Nasdaqkurse in der Größenordnung



      Hier in Deutschland ok .. da kommt man wenn so rechnen
      will : damaliger höchsten Kurs um die 110 Euro und den Reverssplit miteinrechnet auf 440 EURO



      Aber wie gesagt damals waren es die total überzogenen Kurse mit wahnwitzigen KGVs die als normal empfunden wurden Unternehmen mit Fantasie ....


      So hoffen wir dass die jetztigen Meldungen weiterhin auf eine positive Entwicklung hoffen lassen.

      Non-GAAP Financial Information

      Our presentation of financial information above includes a presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is neither an Indian GAAP measure nor a U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Our presentation above also includes a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income/(loss), which we believe to be the most comparable financial measure under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because it is a basis upon which our management assesses our financial performance and because we believe some investors find it to be a useful tool for measuring a company`s financial performance and ability to fund operating obligations and capital expenditures. Investors evaluating our financial performance or analyzing our discounted cash flows based on Adjusted EBITDA should consider financing activities and non-recurring charges that are not included in the calculation. Also for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, Adjusted EBITDA excludes a gain on sale of land held for development ($ 0.35 million). While EBITDA or derivations thereof are frequently reported by many companies as a supplemental measure of operations, it is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation.

      Sify iWays Cross 3000 Cyber Cafes in 149 Cities & Towns in India; For over a Million Indians, iWays Are Now a Way of Life
      Sify Limited, a leader in Consumer Internet and Enterprise Services in India with global delivery capabilities (Nasdaq: SIFY), announced today that its unique `iWay` cyber cafe chain now numbers over 3100 cafes at 149 cities&towns across India, opening at the rate of about two a day. Of these, 34 are company owned, with the rest being franchised operations.

      Sify`s iWays were used by over a million Indians during the last quarter for a variety of services that include broadband Internet access, Net telephony, online games and video conferencing. The Indian Market Research Bureau, in a 2004 report, estimates that about 70% of all Internet users access it from cyber cafes. Sify`s iWays provides a branded service that is unique, and enables users to enjoy broadband access and a rich media experience that the vast majority of stand alone cyber cafes cannot match. In fact, iWays are an innovative delivery platform for Internet access, scalable to deliver services to millions of users, in India or elsewhere.

      Shrikant Joshi, President of Access Media, Sify, (Nachrichten) said, "With less than 5% of India`s population online, and home PCs at 3.5 million out of a total of about 210 million homes, cyber cafes are going to be the primary means of accessing the Net for some time to come. According to IDC, India has the fastest growing Internet user base in the Asia Pacific Region. In fact, the Internet&Mobile Association of India estimates that Internet users will grow from the current 39 million to a 100 million by 2007. A majority of these users will be accessing the Net from cyber cafes. This is the market we are targeting for the iWays, with multiple services and revenue streams. We will also look at taking this successful delivery platform for Internet services to other countries who have similar levels of home PC and Internet penetration. "

      Sify manages the service delivery centrally to its vast chain across 149 cities over its Tier 1 backbone infrastructure, with software and tools custom developed by its technology team. The software with which service delivery is remotely managed also manages the administrative&financial aspects of operations in a reliable, transparent manner, building credibility and trust with customers and franchisees. The innovative iWay delivery platform, combined with the high quality rich graphic content that Sify provides on its broadband content portal www.sifymax.com and on www.sify.com , make for a total user experience that is drawing many more users on to the Internet.

      Customers are debited, from a prepaid charge for a specified number of hours, as per actual use in real time-which they can monitor when they are logged in, and renew online. Since the service is delivered off central servers over the network, customers can log in from any of the 3100 iWays from anywhere in the country with their log in id and password, and use the services exactly as they do from the iWay where they signed on. This gives them flexibility and makes their access `portable`. The quality of user`s experience is managed by Sify, and the customers `owned` by the company.

      The software, tools&technology that run the iWays are packed with innovation to ensure reliability, and the best possible user experience. Each PC is `sanitized` the moment a user logs out of the system so that there is nothing left in the cache or history, so that users get a `fresh` PC every time they log on. Updates of software, security patches etc are remotely uploaded into every PC across the chain over the network by engineers from the command center in Chennai, South India. In addition, every PC can be monitored and reconfigured remotely to ensure optimum working condition using custom developed tools. This robust system is a proven and scalable model capable of scaling to many multiples its current size for remote delivery of services.

      While Internet access forms the core service, Sify`s iWays offer other services such as Online Games and Net telephony. Online games saw a growth of 50% in terms of usage with over a 1000 iWays being games enabled, and at special gaming cafes that Sify has branded `Sify Gamedromes`. Net telephony also continues to grow, with the service available from familiar looking telephone booths which consumers find easy to use. The phones, however, interface with a computer using an application developed by sify, and make a Voice over Internet Protocol call. iWays are also increasingly becoming centers for eCommerce for travel arrangements, paying for utilities, eGovernance services etc.

      India Sify CEO: Expects First Ever Profit In Fiscal 4Q



      By Claudia Assis, Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

      NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- Indian Internet service provider Sify Ltd. (SIFY) expects to turn a profit in its fiscal fourth quarter in what would be the company`s first positive result since its inception in 1995, Chief Executive Officer R. Ramaraj said Friday.

      What gives Ramaraj hope is that the fourth quarter, which ends in March for Indian firms, is usually the busiest time of the year for Internet companies. Sify also pared its losses recently, he said.

      "We are very close to profitability," Ramaraj told Dow Jones Newswires in an interview.

      In the fiscal third quarter ended in December, Sify trimmed its losses to $ 230,000, compared to a net loss of $2.11 million in the same quarter of 2004. The company posted a net loss of $1.4 million in the fiscal second quarter that ran from June to September 2005.

      According to Ramaraj, the January to March quarter is busy for Sify`s business because many Indian companies try to use up money on their budgets before the end of the fiscal year. For operations related to its individual consumers, February and March are the months when scores of young Indians apply for college and take mock examinations on the Internet, increasing traffic and thus advertising revenue, he said.

      Sify is following in the footsteps of Time Warner Inc.`s (TWX) AOL in providing means to access the Web as well as content, Ramaraj noted.

      The company, which is listed in the U.S. but not in India, also owns 3,100 cyber cafes in 150 cities across the South Asian country, while its closest competitor owns about 240 Internet cafes. Sify also offers information technology monitoring and maintenance services for local and overseas businesses.

      About 45% of Sify`s revenue comes from individual consumers, with the remaining 55% from companies, Ramaraj said.

      Despite its lack of profits, Sify is riding a wave of interest for Indian Internet companies, fueled by forecasts of a fourfold growth in Internet usage in that country.

      Estimates vary on how many Indians have regular access to the Internet, but some put that number at 25 million people in a country of more than one billion. According to a report by trade group Internet and Mobile Association of India, the country will have 100 million Internet users by 2007-08.

      Market potential in India is just behind China`s, said Ramaraj. The Indian Internet market may mirror the wireless phone business, which took off a little after China but is growing at the same fast pace since, Ramaraj noted.

      "These are exciting times for growth," he said.

      Sify intends to take advantage of its unique position as a connectivity as well as a content provider, Ramaraj said. It also fends off competitors, which include Yahoo Inc. (YHOO)`s India unit and Google (GOOG), with a better understanding of the local market and being first in the Internet business segment, he added.

      The company provides e-mail services in nine regional languages and content in five of India`s main languages, Ramaraj pointed out. Sify also provides broadband services, allowing for forays into paid music downloading, movie clips from Bollywood - as India`s film industry is known, and interactive scorecards for cricket matches.

      "What we have been doing is betting on broadband and betting on the young," Ramaraj said. About half of India`s population is in the working age group.

      Ramaraj said that local rivals such as Rediff.com (REDF) will also eventually enter the broadband business, but "we`ve got the head start at the moment."

      Sify also plans to seek more business clients overseas in the next fiscal year, which starts in April. The company currently has six clients abroad, for whom it oversees data centers and servers, among other applications. Ramaraj expects to add to the list shortly.

      "That`s a segment that is going to grow very fast ... it is the next wave of off-shoring," said Ramaraj, but declined to provide guidance on how many new clients Sify expects in the 2006-07 fiscal year. He said, however, that most new clients would come from the U.S.

      Sify, headquartered in Madras, was up 1.1% at $10.78 at around 4:40 p.m. EST Friday. The stock`s 52-week high was $12.35, while its 52-week low was $3.81.

      der Grund für den Anstieg konnte ein Zusammenschluß/Übernahme von Sify und Pacific Internet sein.

      Der Kurs von Pacific Internet hat in den letzten Tagen auch schon 20% gemacht.

      Prakriti Prasad / New Delhi March 22, 2006



      Web portals now promise to help couch potatoes catch up with their favourite shows.

      Convergence of television and portals appears to be the latest mantra for entertainment even as television channels are looking at extending their appointment with viewers beyond the half-to-one-hour slot that’s usually allotted to programmes.

      “Entertainment is a big bet today. And we’re pioneering this concept of bringing not just reality TV, but other interesting shows and matches on the PCs for Net users across India,” gushes Surya Mantha, senior vice-president, Sify.

      Sify Max has partnered with popular TV reality shows and other TV-related programmes including Indian Idol, Saregamapa, Sanya and Zee Cine Awards.

      If Mantha is to be believed, television viewers in India, like in the west, need no longer rush home to catch their favourite television show or a cricket match on the telly, for portals will bring all of this to them to be relished at their own convenient time.

      But how much of this is already a reality? Quite a bit, says Kaushal Modi, vice-president, content syndication and wireless telephony, Sony Entertainment Television.

      “We’ve tied up with a host of portals like SifyMax, Indiatimes and Tata VSNL and are doing lot of interesting stuff in terms of hosting not just the half-hour clips of our popular shows but organising interactions with viewers, games and gossips. All this has obviously helped us in extending our appointment with viewers beyond the fixed time slots,” he adds enthusiastically.

      While channels and portals admit they are still figuring out the entire model, they unanimously agree that the space is evolving in a big way.

      Tarun Mehra, head marketing, Zee TV, says: “We had tied up with SifyMax during Challenge 2005, Indiatimes for Hum Paanch and Kam Ya Zyaada. There are a couple of other deals planned for the future.” Mehra believes any show that targets the youth should be promoted on the Net.

      “It’s an exciting time for all of us, entertainers and viewers alike,” concurs Niret Alva, CEO Miditech. As a content provider to television channels of every genre, Alva would know.

      “Thanks to changing technologies and modern gadgets, viewers can now decide when and where to watch their favourite programmes- whether on TV, PC or their mobilephones,” says Alva.

      While the key objective remains the same- to entertain audiences, the delivery systems are changing enabling television content makers bigger space to innovate.

      Star India, on its part too claims to be actively using multiple platforms to provide a surround effect to its viewers. Noticing the visible changes in the consuming habits of viewers in the last one year Star claims to have rapidly scaled up its television offering on the portal.

      “This focus has resulted in over five times increase in traffic to this website in the last nine months,” says Ajay Vidyasagar, executive vice-president, marketing, Star India.

      The website has, in fact, recently launched its new video streaming property – Indya Tube. Star plans to focus on video streaming in the coming months.

      Evidently, it’s a win-win situation for all three – viewers, broadcasters and the portals. While the advantages from a Net user’s perspective include anytime access to their favourite TV show, access from a non-TV environment, platform to meet other fans and favourite contestants and opportunity to participate in show-related votings, producers’ get to build more interest and participation in the show, get access to wider audience through the medium of the Internet, a robust and cost-effective promotional-cum-marketing tool and a platform that can serve as a library for archiving show-related content.

      The response to this trend of convergence of television and Internet, maintain broadcasters and webcasters, has been overwhelming. “They are among the most popular content categories on our site,” says Sify’s Mantha, “The numbers say it all. A chat with a contestant on Fame Gurukul drew over 5,000 to 7,000 users and more than 10,000 questions.”

      Traffic goes up to six million page views on a single day for Saregamapa, and message boards active throughout the day attract over 50,000 users, he adds.

      The response from the advertising community too has been encouraging, say webcasters. “More and more sponsors are open to trying out newer platforms to reach out to consumers,” says Modi.

      Does this mean watching television may soon be on its way out? Not so soon, feels Krishna Prasad, vice-president programming, MSN India: “After all what’s the level of Internet penetration in our country- minuscule? Moreover, it entails high infrastructure cost in terms of digitising content and ensuring higher bandwidth.”

      Understandably, what broadcasters are currently looking at is an attitudinal shift rather than audiences watching, say, a 400-episode of Jassi on the Net. That probably explains why MSN India, which does not provide television content per se as of now, doesn’t rule out jumping the bandwagon anytime soon.

      “This focus has resulted in over five times increase in traffic to this website in the last nine months,” says Ajay Vidyasagar, executive vice-president, marketing, Star India.

      The website has, in fact, recently launched its new video streaming property – Indya Tube. Star plans to focus on video streaming in the coming months.

      Evidently, it’s a win-win situation for all three – viewers, broadcasters and the portals. While the advantages from a Net user’s perspective include anytime access to their favourite TV show, access from a non-TV environment, platform to meet other fans and favourite contestants and opportunity to participate in show-related votings, producers’ get to build more interest and participation in the show, get access to wider audience through the medium of the Internet, a robust and cost-effective promotional-cum-marketing tool and a platform that can serve as a library for archiving show-related content.

      The response to this trend of convergence of television and Internet, maintain broadcasters and webcasters, has been overwhelming. “They are among the most popular content categories on our site,” says Sify’s Mantha, “The numbers say it all. A chat with a contestant on Fame Gurukul drew over 5,000 to 7,000 users and more than 10,000 questions.”

      Traffic goes up to six million page views on a single day for Saregamapa, and message boards active throughout the day attract over 50,000 users, he adds.

      The response from the advertising community too has been encouraging, say webcasters. “More and more sponsors are open to trying out newer platforms to reach out to consumers,” says Modi.

      Does this mean watching television may soon be on its way out? Not so soon, feels Krishna Prasad, vice-president programming, MSN India: “After all what’s the level of Internet penetration in our country- minuscule? Moreover, it entails high infrastructure cost in terms of digitising content and ensuring higher bandwidth.”

      Understandably, what broadcasters are currently looking at is an attitudinal shift rather than audiences watching, say, a 400-episode of Jassi on the Net. That probably explains why MSN India, which does not provide television content per se as of now, doesn’t rule out jumping the bandwagon anytime soon.

      Hallo Sify Leute,

      eine Aktie kann ja doch nicht immer in eine Richtung gehen. Natürlich müssen einige Kurskorrekturen kommen. Bei diesen und niedrigeren Kursen gibt es nur eins kaufen,kaufen was das Zeug hält.:cool::cool::cool:

      Denn in ein paar jahren sieht es anders aus. Wer genug investiert hat,der hat sogar bis im Jahr 2018 ausgesorgt. Denn bis dahin sind einige tausend % drin. Aber ganz sicher. Bei disem Wachstum. Bei dieser Phantasie.:lick::lick::lick:
      Natürlich werden einige sagen, bis 2018 ist der beknackt??? oder beklopft??? Das wird sich ertst nach 2018 stellen:laugh::laugh::laugh:
      Wenn der Mensch bis dahin lebt,wird die Zeit schon kommen.Glaubt mir die Zeit vergeht schnell. Schneller als man denkt.Wer denkt das man in der Börse auf die schnelle reich wird, habt ihr auch mitgesehen, der ist in einer kuren Zeit arm geworden.

      28% Durchschnittsrendite mit Anlagen hat nur einer geschafft.Warren Buffet. Nur 28% werden vielleicht einige sagen. Das hat aber ihn zum zweitreichsten Menschen gemacht.Die Wahrscheinlich besser zu machen liegt fast um die 0.
      Die Parole heisst langfristig in Wachstumswerte. Ich denke mit SIFY werden wir im Jahr um die 30% wachsen.:lick::lick::lick:

      Und wenn wir ein Atem bis 10 jahre haben, da werden wir viel zu lachen haben.:laugh::laugh::laugh:
      Ich hoffe gemeinsam, nicht dass ich in 2015 hier alleine lache.
      Lasst mich nicht alleine lachen.Zusammen machst mehr Spass:lick::lick::lick:

      Bis bald, schreibt auch was:):):)

      Mit Grüssen

      Indiens Sify steigert Gewinne um 200 Prozent

      CHENNAI - Der indische E-Commerce-Spezialist Sify Limited (Nasdaq: SIFY, WKN: 165489) kann im vergangenen Juniquartal seine Umsätze und Gewinne deutlich steigern und die Analystenerwartungen übertreffen. Gleichzeitig berief das Unternehmen den Manager Raju Vegesna zum neuen Managing Director und Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Vegesna wird den bisherigen CEO R. Ramaraj ablösen.
      Für das vergangene Juniquartal meldete Sify einen Umsatzanstieg auf 28,7 Mio. Dollar, was einem Zuwachs von 29,1 Prozent gegenüber dem Vorjahr entspricht. Dabei konnte Sify einen Gewinn von 1,36 Mio. Dollar einfahren, nachdem im Jahr vorher noch ein Verlust von 2,14 Mio. Dollar zu Buche stand. Mit einem Nettogewinn von umgerechnet drei US-Cent je Aktie konnte Sify auch die Gewinnerwartungen der Analysten übertreffen.

      Zwar hatte man an der Wall Street im Vorfeld mit Einnahmen von 30,3 Mio. Dollar, aber nur mit einem Nettogewinn von einem US-Cent je Aktie kalkuliert. Trotz der Übernahme von Globe Travels (USA) konnte Sify das Quartal mit Barreserven von 55,27 Mio. Dollar beenden
