INDIAN tech giant Infosys forecast muted annual revenue growth last Thursday (17) in an outlook that suggests clients might curtail tech spending because of growing global uncertainty.
The IT service firm said its revenue would either stay flat or grow by up to three per cent in the fiscal year through March 2026 on a constant currency basis. The sales forecast was lower than the 4.2 per cent constantcurrency revenue growth Infosys recorded in the previous financial year.
As India’s second-largest software services exporter, Infosys earns more than 80 per cent of its revenue from Western markets. Like many of its rivals, it had anticipated a revival in demand in 2025 after a growth slowdown for most of 2024. However, lingering weakness in client spending and US president Donald Trump’s trade policies have clouded the IT sector’s growth outlook.
Chief executive Salil Parekh said the environment was “uncertain” and Infosys would execute its plans with “agility”, while keeping a “close watch on changes”.
Infosys also reported its March quarter results last Thursday, posting an 11.75 per cent yearon-year drop in net profit to `70.3 billion ($823.5 million/£615.7m).
The company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31 rose 7.9 per cent to `409.25bn.
