Classifying contact center interactions into a large number of categories is critical for downstream analytics, but challenging due to high label cardinality, and cost constraints. While Large Language Models (LLMs) offer flexibility for such tasks, existing methods degrade with increasing label space, showing significant inconsistencies and sensitivity to label ordering. We propose a scalable, cost-effective two-step retrieval-augmented classification framework, enhanced with a multi-view representation of labels. Our method significantly improves accuracy and consistency over baseline LLM approaches. Experiments across 4 private and 5 open datasets yield performance improvements of upto 14.6% while reducing inference cost by 60-91% compared to baseline approaches.
