Infosys reports 3.1% FY26 CC revenue growth, 4.1% YoY in Q4, with strong $14.9bn large deal wins. FY27 guidance set at 1.5-3.5% CC revenue growth and 20-22% operating margin, reflecting AI opportunities amidst competitive intensity and productivity impacts.
The modest FY27 revenue guidance (1.5-3.5% CC) suggests ongoing demand softness and competitive pressures, despite strong large deal wins and a clear AI strategy. Management acknowledges AI productivity impact and continued competitive intensity as headwinds.
We see a large addressable market for AI services across six areas. The growth in AI services is very strong, and it is growing very nicely.
Large deals were very good, $14.9 bn for the full year, 28% higher than previous year, with 55% net new. Large deal pipeline continues to remain strong.
We expect acceleration of growth in Financial Services. We are strategic AI partner for 18 out of the top 20 clients in this vertical.
We expect acceleration of growth in Energy, Utility, Resources and Services vertical. Demand environment remains constructive supported by a strong large deal pipeline.
We onboarded more than 20,000 freshers in FY26 and expect to hire a similar number in FY27.
Utilization, including trainees, was at 81.1% for FY26 reflecting the investment made towards creating future capacity.
Financial Services clients are adopting AI quickly, moving to build agents for KYC, AML, and credit processes, and using foundation models for legacy modernization.
Clients continue to prioritize cost reduction and operational efficiency which is a driving vendor consolidation, especially in the EURS segment.
The underlying resilience of some of the economies where we have the big markets is pretty good, with good investments and AI growing well.
As we look ahead to the financial year 2027, we see continued competitive intensity.
We see an AI productivity impact, a combination of these things. The compression is coming on some of the services.
This quarter the volumes were softer. Q4 revenues declined 1.3% sequentially due to seasonality and slower decision making in March.
Clients in Manufacturing remain cautious amid softer demand particularly in automotive and parts of Europe. Near term and FY27 growth will be impacted due to low revenue from one large client.
With the situation with the Iran war, there was a change in the economic environment. Clients are talking about delays in decision making.
The acquisition of Optimum and a JV with an Australian client are pending regulatory approvals and not yet baked into guidance.
Client spending is guarded, with greater focus on cost optimization engagements as against growth-led transformation programs.
AI is beginning to compress the traditional IT services model, typically in areas where AI foundation models and tools are very efficient.
Issuer guidance and extracted claims are tracked against later reported outcomes. Treat these as management statements, not IndiaPulse forecasts.
YoY comparison is crucial for assessing overall growth and full-year performance, especially in a seasonal business. QoQ comparison is relevant for understanding sequential momentum, immediate demand shifts, and the impact of seasonality on quarterly results.
We had growth of 3.1% for the full year in constant currency terms.
On Q4, our growth year-on-year was 4.1% in constant currency terms. Sequentially, revenues declined 1.3% in constant currency due to seasonality and slower decision making.
Large deals were very good, $14.9 bn for the full year. The full year was 28% higher than it was in the previous year, with 55% net new.
Large deals were $3.2 bn for the fourth quarter. We signed 19 large deals during the quarter.
Our revenue growth guidance for the financial year 2027 is 1.5% to 3.5% growth year-on-year in constant currency terms.
Our operating margin guidance for financial year '27 is 20% to 22%.
We expect H1 to be stronger than H2 consistent with our normal seasonality.
We have a very careful approach on acquisitions: strategic fit, cultural fit, value fit. We could see suddenly a lot, or three quarters of nothing.

|---|---|---|
| AI Services Revenue Contribution | Growing nicely, higher than 5.5% of Q3 revenue, but specific number not disclosed. | Disclosure of specific AI revenue numbers and its percentage contribution to total revenue. |
| Acquisition Closures | Optimum acquisition and Australian JV are pending regulatory approvals. | Announcements of closure for Optimum and the JV, and their subsequent impact on FY27 revenue guidance. |
| Wage Hikes | Decision on quantum and timing of wage hikes not yet made for FY27. | Announcement of wage hike details and management commentary on its impact on margins and employee morale. |
| Manufacturing Client Headwind | Revenue from one large client in manufacturing will wind down towards the end of FY27. | Evidence of successful backfilling of this revenue through new deals or growth in other segments to mitigate impact. |

Trust asks: does management behaviour match later outcomes? Higher is better, but confidence and evidence depth matter as much as the number.
Healthy Trust: Management has 80% delivered/partly-delivered outcomes on 20 checked claims, with 4 adverse claim outcomes. It ranks around the 78th percentile of the scored universe and 74th percentile within IT. No major sub-score weakness stands out.
High Trust: 20/37 extracted management claims have outcome checks; 50% were fully delivered and 6 were partially delivered. 4 claim(s) were contradicted or failed. Key concern: 4/20 matched management claims were contradicted or failed.
Generally investable credibility. Look for weak sub-scores before increasing position size.

Read Trust alongside U-Score, result consistency, and technical trend. A cheap stock with weak Trust needs a larger margin of safety; a high Trust score does not make an expensive stock attractive by itself.
Read low sub-scores as due-diligence warnings, not automatic sell signals.
