Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Mar. 2025 )/Interest Expense (Q: Mar. 2025 )
=-1*54420/-1560

The higher the ratio, the stronger the company's financial strength is.

2. Debt to revenue ratio. The lower, the better.

HCL Technologies's Debt to Revenue Ratio for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2025 is

Debt to Revenue Ratio=Total Debt (Q: Mar. 2025 ) / Revenue
