Thanks, Sandeep. Good evening and good morning to everyone on the call. Thank you for joining us. Warm wishes to you for the new year. We had a strong performance in Q3. Our revenues grew 0.6% sequentially and 1.7% year-on-year in constant currency terms. Our large deals were at $4.8 billion with 57% net new.

This was across 26 deals. Our adjusted operating margin was 21.2%. We generated free cash flow of $915 million. One of the most significant large deals we won was with the National Health Service in the U.K. This $1.6 billion deal expands our work in the health care sector. We will help NHS leverage AI to streamline operations and improve patient care for U.K. citizens. We have deepened our Topaz AI capability with an agent services suite called Topaz Fabric. This suite helps our clients manage and implement AI agents across the enterprise. We are expanding our strategic partnerships with AI companies.

Here, we will combine Cognition's Devon software agent with Infosys' knowledge of the client landscape and industry expertise. We are already working with them across clients. Industry analysts recognize Infosys for its leadership in AI. In financial year 2026, we were recognized as a leader across 12 ratings. We had strong momentum in AI adoption across our client base. Today, we work with 90% of our 200 largest clients to unlock value with AI. We are currently working on 4,600 AI projects. Our teams have generated over 28 million lines of code using AI. We built over 500 agents. We are scaling our forward deployed engineer team.์—ฌ๊ธฐ์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” Cognition์˜ Devon ์†Œํ”„ํŠธ์›จ์–ด ์—์ด์ „ํŠธ์™€ Infosys์˜ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ง€์‹ ๋ฐ ์‚ฐ์—… ์ „๋ฌธ์„ฑ์„ ๊ฒฐํ•ฉํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์ด๋ฏธ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ์— ๊ฑธ์ณ ๊ทธ๋“ค๊ณผ ํ˜‘๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์‚ฐ์—… ์• ๋„๋ฆฌ์ŠคํŠธ๋“ค์€ AI ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ Infosys์˜ ๋ฆฌ๋”์‹ญ์„ ์ธ์ •ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2026 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์— ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” 12๊ฐœ ํ‰๊ฐ€ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ๋ฆฌ๋”๋กœ ์ธ์ •๋ฐ›์•˜์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ์ „๋ฐ˜์— ๊ฑธ์ณ AI ๋„์ž…์—์„œ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ๋ชจ๋ฉ˜ํ…€์„ ๋ณด์˜€์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์ƒ์œ„ 200๋Œ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ ์ค‘ 90%์™€ ํ˜‘๋ ฅํ•˜์—ฌ AI๋กœ ๊ฐ€์น˜๋ฅผ ์ฐฝ์ถœํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ 4,600๊ฐœ์˜ AI ํ”„๋กœ์ ํŠธ๋ฅผ ์ง„ํ–‰ ์ค‘์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ ํŒ€์€ AI๋ฅผ ํ™œ์šฉํ•˜์—ฌ 2,800๋งŒ ์ค„ ์ด์ƒ์˜ ์ฝ”๋“œ๋ฅผ ์ƒ์„ฑํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 500๊ฐœ ์ด์ƒ์˜ ์—์ด์ „ํŠธ๋ฅผ ๊ตฌ์ถ•ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ํ˜„์žฅ ๋ฐฐ์น˜ ์—”์ง€๋‹ˆ์–ด(forward deployed engineer) ํŒ€์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Our clients are turning to us as trusted partners to drive value realization from AI investments. Some of the areas they focus on are fragmented data, legacy application landscape and business workflows that are not conducive for AI. We bring together a deep understanding of clients' technology landscape, strong data engineering and process reimagination capabilities to help them capture value at scale from AI. We aspire to make AI work for clients delivering business outcomes for cost, revenue growth and innovation. We are witnessing 6 AI-led value pools emerging that could unlock a large incremental opportunity for us. We also see productivity-led benefits that compress some legacy areas.๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์€ AI ํˆฌ์ž๋กœ๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ๊ฐ€์น˜ ์‹คํ˜„์„ ์ด๋Œ์–ด๋‚ด๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ์‹ ๋ขฐํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ํŒŒํŠธ๋„ˆ๋กœ์„œ ์ €ํฌ๋ฅผ ์ฐพ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ์ง‘์ค‘ํ•˜๋Š” ์˜์—ญ์œผ๋กœ๋Š” ๋‹จํŽธํ™”๋œ ๋ฐ์ดํ„ฐ, ๋ ˆ๊ฑฐ์‹œ ์• ํ”Œ๋ฆฌ์ผ€์ด์…˜ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  AI์— ์ ํ•ฉํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์€ ๋น„์ฆˆ๋‹ˆ์Šค ์›Œํฌํ”Œ๋กœ์šฐ ๋“ฑ์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ณ ๊ฐ์˜ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊นŠ์€ ์ดํ•ด, ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ๋ฐ์ดํ„ฐ ์—”์ง€๋‹ˆ์–ด๋ง ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ํ”„๋กœ์„ธ์Šค ์žฌ๊ตฌ์ƒ ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰์„ ๊ฒฐํ•ฉํ•˜์—ฌ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด AI๋กœ๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ๋Œ€๊ทœ๋ชจ๋กœ ๊ฐ€์น˜๋ฅผ ์ฐฝ์ถœํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋„๋ก ์ง€์›ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” AI๊ฐ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์„ ์œ„ํ•ด ์‹ค์งˆ์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ž‘๋™ํ•˜๋„๋ก ํ•˜์—ฌ ๋น„์šฉ ์ ˆ๊ฐ, ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ํ˜์‹  ์ธก๋ฉด์—์„œ ๋น„์ฆˆ๋‹ˆ์Šค ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ์ œ๊ณตํ•˜๊ณ ์ž ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ํ˜„์žฌ 6๊ฐœ์˜ AI ์ฃผ๋„ ๊ฐ€์น˜ ํ’€(value pool)์ด ํ˜•์„ฑ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์„ ๋ชฉ๊ฒฉํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์ €ํฌ์—๊ฒŒ ๋Œ€๊ทœ๋ชจ ์ฆ๋ถ„ ๊ธฐํšŒ๋ฅผ ์ฐฝ์ถœํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ ์ผ๋ถ€ ๋ ˆ๊ฑฐ์‹œ ์˜์—ญ์„ ์••์ถ•์‹œํ‚ค๋Š” ์ƒ์‚ฐ์„ฑ ์ฃผ๋„์˜ ํšจ์ต๋„ ํ™•์ธํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
The 6 value pools of opportunity in AI services we see are AI engineering services, data for AI, agents for operations, AI software development and legacy modernization, AI and physical devices and AI services. We believe we are uniquely positioned to capture market share across these value pools and emerge as the leading AI value creator for global enterprises. We will share a comprehensive view on our approach at an Investor Day later this quarter. In Financial Services, we see good traction in large deals and discretionary projects. In Financial Services and in energy, utilities, resources and services verticals, we expect acceleration in financial year 2027 over financial year 2026.AI ์„œ๋น„์Šค์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๋ณด๋Š” 6๊ฐ€์ง€ ๊ฐ€์น˜ ํ’€ ๊ธฐํšŒ๋Š” AI ์—”์ง€๋‹ˆ์–ด๋ง ์„œ๋น„์Šค, AI์šฉ ๋ฐ์ดํ„ฐ, ์šด์˜์šฉ ์—์ด์ „ํŠธ, AI ์†Œํ”„ํŠธ์›จ์–ด ๊ฐœ๋ฐœ ๋ฐ ๋ ˆ๊ฑฐ์‹œ ํ˜„๋Œ€ํ™”, AI์™€ ๋ฌผ๋ฆฌ์  ๋””๋ฐ”์ด์Šค, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  AI ์„œ๋น„์Šค์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๊ฐ€์น˜ ํ’€ ์ „๋ฐ˜์— ๊ฑธ์ณ ์‹œ์žฅ ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ธ€๋กœ๋ฒŒ ๊ธฐ์—…๋“ค์„ ์œ„ํ•œ ์„ ๋„์ ์ธ AI ๊ฐ€์น˜ ์ฐฝ์ถœ์ž๋กœ ๋ถ€์ƒํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋…๋ณด์ ์ธ ์œ„์น˜์— ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ๋ฏฟ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฒˆ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ํ›„๋ฐ˜์— ์—ด๋ฆด ํˆฌ์ž์ž์˜ ๋‚ (Investor Day)์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์ ‘๊ทผ ๋ฐฉ์‹์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํฌ๊ด„์ ์ธ ๊ด€์ ์„ ๊ณต์œ ํ•  ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ๋Š” ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜์™€ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ํ”„๋กœ์ ํŠธ์—์„œ ์ข‹์€ ๊ฒฌ์ธ๋ ฅ์„ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค์™€ ์—๋„ˆ์ง€, ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ, ์ž์› ๋ฐ ์„œ๋น„์Šค ์—…์ข…์—์„œ๋Š” 2026 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„ ๋Œ€๋น„ 2027 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์— ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”๋ฅผ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
This is based on good deal wins and AI partner status with 15 of our largest 25 clients in each of these verticals. With the strong performance in this quarter, we have revised our revenue guidance for the financial year. The new revenue growth guidance for this financial year is 3% to 3.5% growth in constant currency. Our operating margin guidance for the financial year remains the same at 20% to 22%. With that, let me hand it over to Jayesh for his update. Jayesh Sanghrajka

Our Q3 performance demonstrates continued momentum we saw in the last 2 quarters, underscoring resilience of our business model, relevance of our offerings and our disciplined execution. We had another quarter of growth despite seasonal weakness and reduction in third-party costs. The results for Q3 FY '26 include a charge associated with change in labor codes in India, which had an impact on operating profit, net profit, EPS, free cash flow for the quarter. Reference to the adjusted numbers exclude the impact from the same.

Operating margins include the impact of change in labor codes stands at 18.4%. Adjusting for the same, it is at 21.2%. Key highlights of the quarter are as follows: -- we achieved strong revenue growth despite seasonality and lower third-party costs. Third-party as a percentage of revenue reduced by 0.3% sequentially and approximately 2.4% on a year-on-year basis. With 3 strong quarters of performance, our revenue growth in 9 months stood at 2.8%, which is at the higher end of our earlier guided range. This is despite the lower third party, which has reduced by approximately 1% compared to the same period last year and now stands at 7.3%.๋…ธ๋™๋ฒ• ๋ณ€๊ฒฝ์˜ ์˜ํ–ฅ์„ ํฌํ•จํ•œ ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ 18.4%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฅผ ์กฐ์ •ํ•˜๋ฉด 21.2%์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฒˆ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์˜ ์ฃผ์š” ํ•˜์ด๋ผ์ดํŠธ๋Š” ๋‹ค์Œ๊ณผ ๊ฐ™์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค: -- ๊ณ„์ ˆ์  ์š”์ธ๊ณผ ๋‚ฎ์€ ์ œ3์ž ๋น„์šฉ์—๋„ ๋ถˆ๊ตฌํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์ถœ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์ œ3์ž ๋น„์šฉ ๋น„์œจ์€ ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 0.3% ๊ฐ์†Œํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„๋กœ๋Š” ์•ฝ 2.4% ๊ฐ์†Œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 3๊ฐœ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์—ฐ์† ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์‹ค์ ์„ ๊ธฐ๋กํ•˜๋ฉด์„œ, 9๊ฐœ์›”๊ฐ„ ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ๋ฅ ์€ 2.8%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” ๋‹น์‚ฌ๊ฐ€ ์ด์ „์— ์ œ์‹œํ•œ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ๋ฒ”์œ„์˜ ์ƒ๋‹จ์— ํ•ด๋‹นํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ์ œ3์ž ๋น„์šฉ์ด ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์•ฝ 1% ๊ฐ์†Œํ•˜์—ฌ ํ˜„์žฌ 7.3% ์ˆ˜์ค€์— ๋จธ๋ฌผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Œ์—๋„ ๋ถˆ๊ตฌํ•˜๊ณ  ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•œ ์„ฑ๊ณผ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Momentum in Financial Services continues with 3.9% year-on-year in constant currency terms. Among geos, Europe continued to lead the growth by 7.2% year-on-year in constant currency terms. Volumes continue to remain soft for the quarter and the year. On a 9-month basis, RPP increased, reflecting continued momentum of value-based selling and productivity increases that we have achieved. Adjusted operating margins increased by 20 basis points sequentially to 21.2%. We continue our investments in sales and marketing, which has increased by double digits this year to date and impacting margins by approximately 50 basis points.๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์˜ ๋ชจ๋ฉ˜ํ…€์€ ์ง€์†๋˜์–ด ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ๋ถˆ๋ณ€ํ™˜์œจ ๊ธฐ์ค€ 3.9% ์„ฑ์žฅํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ง€์—ญ๋ณ„๋กœ๋Š” ์œ ๋Ÿฝ์ด ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ๋ถˆ๋ณ€ํ™˜์œจ ๊ธฐ์ค€ 7.2% ์„ฑ์žฅํ•˜๋ฉฐ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์ฃผ๋„ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜๋Ÿ‰์€ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์™€ ์—ฐ๊ฐ„ ๊ธฐ์ค€ ๋ชจ๋‘ ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ๋ถ€์ง„ํ•œ ์ƒํƒœ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 9๊ฐœ์›” ๋ˆ„์  ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ RPP(Revenue Per Person, ์ธ๋‹น ๋งค์ถœ)๊ฐ€ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ๊ฐ€์น˜ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ์˜์—…์˜ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ๋ชจ๋ฉ˜ํ…€๊ณผ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•œ ์ƒ์‚ฐ์„ฑ ํ–ฅ์ƒ์„ ๋ฐ˜์˜ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์กฐ์ • ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ ์ „ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 20bp(๋ฒ ์ด์‹œ์Šคํฌ์ธํŠธ) ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜์—ฌ 21.2%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์˜์—… ๋ฐ ๋งˆ์ผ€ํŒ…์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํˆฌ์ž๋ฅผ ์ง€์†ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์—ฐ์ดˆ ๋Œ€๋น„ ๋‘ ์ž๋ฆฟ์ˆ˜๋กœ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜์—ฌ ๋งˆ์ง„์— ์•ฝ 50bp์˜ ์˜ํ–ฅ์„ ๋ฏธ์น˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Utilization, excluding trainees was down by 1% sequentially at 84.1% and including trainees, was down by 2.2% to 80% as we continue to create capacity for future growth opportunities. Our adjusted margins for 9 months are at 21% at midpoint of guidance after absorbing accelerated investment in sales and marketing as well as lower utilization. On-site mix further reduced by 10 basis points in Q3 and by 70 basis points in 9 months FY '26. Investment in talent continues. Net headcount increased by 5,000 to 337,000 employees. LTM attrition declined by 2% sequentially and 1.4% on a year-on-year basis, reflecting both market conditions and our focus on employee retention and upskilling.๊ต์œก์ƒ์„ ์ œ์™ธํ•œ ๊ฐ€๋™๋ฅ ์€ ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 1% ๊ฐ์†Œํ•œ 84.1%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๊ต์œก์ƒ์„ ํฌํ•จํ•œ ๊ฐ€๋™๋ฅ ์€ 2.2% ๊ฐ์†Œํ•œ 80%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ํ–ฅํ›„ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๊ธฐํšŒ๋ฅผ ์œ„ํ•œ ์—ฌ๋ ฅ์„ ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 9๊ฐœ์›” ๋ˆ„์  ์กฐ์ • ๋งˆ์ง„์œจ์€ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ์ค‘๊ฐ„๊ฐ’์ธ 21%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์˜์—… ๋ฐ ๋งˆ์ผ€ํŒ…์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”๋œ ํˆฌ์ž์™€ ๋‚ฎ์•„์ง„ ๊ฐ€๋™๋ฅ ์„ ํก์ˆ˜ํ•œ ๊ฒฐ๊ณผ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฅ ๊ทผ๋ฌด ๋น„์ค‘์€ 3๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— 10bp(๋ฒ ์ด์‹œ์Šคํฌ์ธํŠธ) ์ถ”๊ฐ€ ๊ฐ์†Œํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, FY '26๋…„ 9๊ฐœ์›” ๋ˆ„์ ์œผ๋กœ๋Š” 70bp ๊ฐ์†Œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Large deal TCV was robust at $4.8 billion in Q3 with 57% net new. Total large deal TCV for 9 months stood at $11.7 billion, exceeded the total large deal TCV of full year FY '25. Net new deal TCV for 9 months was up by 40% as compared to the same period last year. Large deal pipeline continues to be healthy. Our razor-sharp focus aided by the deployment of AI agents on our order to receivable cycle has resulted in decline of 5 days in DSO, including net unbilled to 82 days sequentially. Driven by strong collections, free cash flow generation adjusted for labor codes remained robust at $965 million, which is 113% of adjusted net profit.3๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ณ„์•ฝ ์ด๊ณ„์•ฝ๊ฐ€์น˜(TCV)๋Š” 48์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ ๊ฒฌ์กฐํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด ์ค‘ ์ˆœ์‹ ๊ทœ ๊ณ„์•ฝ์ด 57%๋ฅผ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 9๊ฐœ์›”๊ฐ„ ๋ˆ„์  ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ณ„์•ฝ ์ด๊ณ„์•ฝ๊ฐ€์น˜๋Š” 117์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ, 2025 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„ ์ „์ฒด ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ณ„์•ฝ ์ด๊ณ„์•ฝ๊ฐ€์น˜๋ฅผ ์ดˆ๊ณผํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 9๊ฐœ์›”๊ฐ„ ์ˆœ์‹ ๊ทœ ๊ณ„์•ฝ ์ด๊ณ„์•ฝ๊ฐ€์น˜๋Š” ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 40% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ณ„์•ฝ ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ์€ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ๊ฑด์ „ํ•œ ์ƒํƒœ๋ฅผ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Major components of changes are as below: Tailwinds of 40 basis points from currency movement, 40 basis points from Maximus comprising primarily of value-based selling, critical portfolios and lean and automation, offset by 70 basis point impact from furloughs and lower working days. The impact of higher variable pay was partly offset by one-off benefits during the quarter. Consolidated cash and investments were at $3.9 billion at the end of the quarter after returning $3 billion to the shareholders in the form of dividend and buyback. Yield on cash balance was at 6.19% and ROE stood at 32.8%.

Region-wise, we signed 16 deals in America, 9 in Europe and 1 in Rest of World. Coming to verticals. We see continued momentum in financial services with approximately 5% growth in last 9 months, led by large deal wins and uptick in discretionary spends across subverticals like banking, payments, mortgages, along with assets and wealth management. There is elevated interest in AI-led transformation, platform modernization and vendor consolidation.

Significant core transformation across all FS subvertical is creating strong long-term strategic pipeline, providing good IP platform partner opportunities. We are now a preferred AI partner for top 15 out of 25 banking clients. Uptick in discretionary spend in aforementioned subverticals and deal wins in recent quarters positions us favorably for better growth in FY '27. Manufacturing vertical is also impacted by tariff uncertainties, which is preventing clients from committing to long-term investment. Discretionary spend is under pressure and decision-making is slow.

We are seeing an increase in discretionary demand in utilities and energy, which should lead to growth acceleration in FY '27. Utility sector is witnessing increasing in demand driven by massive investments in infra and AI data centers. While discretionary demand in energy sector is focused on decarbonization and low-carbon solutions, there is also focus on cost optimization and consolidation due to enterprise AI adoption. Retail and CPG clients continue to experience uncertainty due to the ongoing tariff negotiations and evolving geopolitical equations.์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ์™€ ์—๋„ˆ์ง€ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์ˆ˜์š”๊ฐ€ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” FY '27๋…„๋„์— ์„ฑ์žฅ ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”๋กœ ์ด์–ด์งˆ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์€ ์ธํ”„๋ผ์™€ AI ๋ฐ์ดํ„ฐ์„ผํ„ฐ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๋Œ€๊ทœ๋ชจ ํˆฌ์ž์— ํž˜์ž…์–ด ์ˆ˜์š” ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋ฅผ ๋ชฉ๊ฒฉํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—๋„ˆ์ง€ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์˜ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์ˆ˜์š”๋Š” ํƒˆํƒ„์†Œํ™”์™€ ์ €ํƒ„์†Œ ์†”๋ฃจ์…˜์— ์ง‘์ค‘๋˜์–ด ์žˆ๋Š” ๋ฐ˜๋ฉด, ์—”ํ„ฐํ”„๋ผ์ด์ฆˆ AI ๋„์ž…์œผ๋กœ ์ธํ•œ ๋น„์šฉ ์ตœ์ ํ™”์™€ ํ†ตํ•ฉ์—๋„ ์ฃผ๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ฆฌํ…Œ์ผ ๋ฐ CPG ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“ค์€ ์ง„ํ–‰ ์ค‘์ธ ๊ด€์„ธ ํ˜‘์ƒ๊ณผ ๋ณ€ํ™”ํ•˜๋Š” ์ง€์ •ํ•™์  ์ƒํ™ฉ์œผ๋กœ ์ธํ•ด ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ๋ถˆํ™•์‹ค์„ฑ์„ ๊ฒฝํ—˜ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Clients are prioritizing cost takeouts and AI-led productivity deals while discretionary spend remains soft apart from SAP, DNA testing and AI augmented services. We continue to leverage Topaz and our AI Next platform to deliver measurable business value with robust guardrails around privacy, governance and augmenting customer and employee experiences. Telcos are prioritizing AI automation and transformation productivity increases, while traditionally IT remains under pressure.

Focus is on outcome-based engagement models rather than traditional effort-based pricing model. Our stellar execution in a seasonally weak quarter is a clear reflection of our ability to navigate the uncertain environment effectively. Strong year-to-date performance and robust deal wins have enabled us to revise our revenue guidance for FY '26 upward to 3% to 3.5%. This does not include any revenues from the joint venture with Telstra still await the regulatory approvals. Our operating margin guidance remains at 20% to 22%. With that, we can open up for the questions.์ „ํ†ต์ ์ธ ๋…ธ๋ ฅ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ๋ชจ๋ธ๋ณด๋‹ค๋Š” ์„ฑ๊ณผ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ์ฐธ์—ฌ ๋ชจ๋ธ์— ์ค‘์ ์„ ๋‘๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ„์ ˆ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ถ€์ง„ํ•œ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์—๋„ ๋ถˆ๊ตฌํ•˜๊ณ  ์šฐ์ˆ˜ํ•œ ์‹ค์ ์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์€ ๋ถˆํ™•์‹คํ•œ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์„ ํšจ๊ณผ์ ์œผ๋กœ ํ—ค์ณ๋‚˜๊ฐ€๋Š” ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰์„ ๋ช…ํ™•ํžˆ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฐ์ดˆ ๋Œ€๋น„ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์‹ค์ ๊ณผ ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ์ˆ˜์ฃผ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ฐ”ํƒ•์œผ๋กœ FY '26 ๋งค์ถœ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ 3%์—์„œ 3.5%๋กœ ์ƒํ–ฅ ์กฐ์ •ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” Telstra์™€์˜ ํ•ฉ์ž‘ ํˆฌ์ž๋กœ ์ธํ•œ ๋งค์ถœ์€ ํฌํ•จํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์€ ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ฉฐ, ํ•ด๋‹น ๊ฑด์€ ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ๊ทœ์ œ ๋‹น๊ตญ์˜ ์Šน์ธ์„ ๊ธฐ๋‹ค๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ  ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋Š” 20%์—์„œ 22%๋กœ ์œ ์ง€๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ œ ์งˆ์˜์‘๋‹ต ์‹œ๊ฐ„์„ ๊ฐ–๋„๋ก ํ•˜๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Ankur Rudra: JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division Good to see a nice print here. Just first couple of questions on the revenue and the demand side. The signs have been quite strong for the last couple of quarters, momentum has been quite strong as well. I'm just curious why the outlook -- the implied outlook for fourth quarter can't be stronger than it is. And secondly, I just want to confirm that your comment is for a growth acceleration in F '27 for the overall business and not for a segment alone? And are you seeing any signs of short-cycle projects or discretionary spending expanding beyond financial services and energy also, especially when you think about F '27?**Ankur Rudra:** ์ข‹์€ ์‹ค์  ๋ฐœํ‘œ๋ฅผ ๋ณด๊ฒŒ ๋˜์–ด ๋ฐ˜๊ฐ‘์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋จผ์ € ๋งค์ถœ๊ณผ ์ˆ˜์š” ์ธก๋ฉด์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ช‡ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์งˆ๋ฌธ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ง€๋‚œ ๋ช‡ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋™์•ˆ ์‹ ํ˜ธ๋“ค์ด ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ๊ฐ•ํ–ˆ๊ณ , ๋ชจ๋ฉ˜ํ…€๋„ ๋งค์šฐ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ๋ฐ 4๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ „๋ง์ด ํ˜„์žฌ๋ณด๋‹ค ๋” ๊ฐ•ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์—†๋Š” ์ด์œ ๊ฐ€ ๊ถ๊ธˆํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‘ ๋ฒˆ์งธ๋กœ, 27ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๋ง์”€์ด ํŠน์ • ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์ด ์•„๋‹Œ ์ „์ฒด ์‚ฌ์—…์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์ธ์ง€ ํ™•์ธํ•˜๊ณ  ์‹ถ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค์™€ ์—๋„ˆ์ง€๋ฅผ ๋„˜์–ด์„œ ๋‹จ๊ธฐ ํ”„๋กœ์ ํŠธ๋‚˜ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์ง€์ถœ์ด ํ™•๋Œ€๋˜๋Š” ์กฐ์ง์ด ๋ณด์ด๋Š”์ง€์š”, ํŠนํžˆ 27ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„๋ฅผ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•  ๋•Œ ๋ง์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director Ankur, this is Salil. So first, on what we are seeing in terms of the momentum and the deals, all of that has led to the increase in the guidance keeping in mind the overall picture. So we mentioned -- Jayesh mentioned a little bit about financial services, about energy, utilities, the overall deal. And then if you look at some of our other sectors, we are still seeing those sectors starting to come up, but not at that level. So keeping all of that in mind, we've increased the guidance for what we see in Q4. On the numbers for next year, so what we have shared today is in the 2 verticals, energy, utilities, resources and services, and in financial services, we see that the growth on financial year '27 to '26 will be good, and that is because of the deals we have won large and other deals and the AI where we have partners with 15 of the large -- of our large 25 clients. So those 2 things especially are giving us that view. We are not making a comment on the overall. We are not saying anything on the overall at this stage.**Salil Parekh:** ๋จผ์ € ํ˜„์žฌ ๋ชจ๋ฉ˜ํ…€๊ณผ ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜ ๋™ํ–ฅ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์ธ ์ƒํ™ฉ์„ ๊ณ ๋ คํ•˜์—ฌ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ์ƒํ–ฅ ์กฐ์ •ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ์ด์‹œ๊ฐ€ ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค, ์—๋„ˆ์ง€, ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ๊ณผ ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์ธ ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜ ์ƒํ™ฉ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ์„นํ„ฐ๋“ค์„ ๋ณด๋ฉด ํšŒ๋ณต์„ธ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ด๊ธฐ ์‹œ์ž‘ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์ง€๋งŒ, ์•„์ง ๊ทธ ์ˆ˜์ค€์—๋Š” ๋ฏธ์น˜์ง€ ๋ชปํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด ๋ชจ๋“  ์ ์„ ์ข…ํ•ฉ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๊ณ ๋ คํ•˜์—ฌ 4๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ์ƒํ–ฅ ์กฐ์ •ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‚ด๋…„ ์ˆ˜์น˜์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋ฉด, ์˜ค๋Š˜ ๊ณต์œ ํ•œ ๋‚ด์šฉ์€ ์—๋„ˆ์ง€, ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ, ์ž์› ๋ฐ ์„œ๋น„์Šค, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค, ์ด ๋‘ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ๋ฒ„ํ‹ฐ์ปฌ(vertical)์— ๊ด€ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 26๋…„ ๋Œ€๋น„ 27๋…„ ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์— ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ธ๊ฐ€ ์ข‹์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ˆ˜์ฃผํ•œ ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ณ„์•ฝ๋“ค๊ณผ ๊ธฐํƒ€ ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜๋“ค, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  AI ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ์ƒ์œ„ 25๋Œ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์ค‘ 15๊ณณ๊ณผ ํŒŒํŠธ๋„ˆ์‹ญ์„ ๋งบ์€ ๊ฒƒ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŠนํžˆ ์ด ๋‘ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์š”์ธ์ด ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ „๋ง์„ ๋’ท๋ฐ›์นจํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ „์ฒด์ ์ธ ๋ถ€๋ถ„์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ํ˜„ ๋‹จ๊ณ„์—์„œ๋Š” ์ „์‚ฌ์ ์ธ ๋‚ด์šฉ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์–ด๋–ค ๋ง์”€๋„ ๋“œ๋ฆฌ์ง€ ์•Š๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Chief Financial Officer: Ankur, if I can just add to what Salil was saying on guidance and your question on why Q4 guidance cannot be elevated more. You should also remember that there is a lower working day calendar day impact in this quarter, which is usually seasonally there.

Ankur Rudra: JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division Appreciate it. Just a question for you, Jayesh, as well on the margin side. Margins appear to be down 20 basis points if I adjust the gains from the sale -- property sale this time. Could you highlight if you're seeing any kind of pricing pressure? And also, how do you see the puts and takes going forward? Also, given a lot more disclosure on the AI side, which is appreciated, I'm curious if AI is a headwind or a tailwind on your margins when you do these 4,600 AI projects.**Ankur Rudra:** ๊ฐ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Chief Financial Officer: Yes. So you're right, there was a benefit that we got this quarter, and I did call that out that we that benefit was largely offset by the higher variable pay that we also provided in the financial statements this quarter. So that's the put and take of the margin. On the pricing, if you look at our consistent pricing commentary has been that our pricing is accretive. We have seen consistently our pricing going up on back of various factors, including AI, including Project Maximus. Newgen pricing is part of the Project Maximus, which includes how do you price these new AI projects, et cetera, of reagents, et cetera. So we don't really see an impact or a headwind coming because of the AI projects on pricing, especially.**Chief Financial Officer:** ๋„ค, ๋งž์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฒˆ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ํ˜œํƒ์ด ์žˆ์—ˆ๊ณ , ์ œ๊ฐ€ ์–ธ๊ธ‰๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๊ฒƒ์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ ๊ทธ ํ˜œํƒ์€ ์ด๋ฒˆ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์žฌ๋ฌด์ œํ‘œ์— ๋ฐ˜์˜๋œ ๋†’์€ ๋ณ€๋™ ๊ธ‰์—ฌ๋กœ ๋Œ€๋ถ€๋ถ„ ์ƒ์‡„๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ๋งˆ์ง„์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค์™€ ๋งˆ์ด๋„ˆ์Šค ์š”์ธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director So this is Salil. I think what we see now is, first, the comment that we made earlier on energy, utilities, vertical and financial services. In financial services, we also see discretionary work that is more prevalent. And then we see much more activity on AI. And in the AI area, what we are starting to identify as the 6 value pools, areas where we can drive faster growth. We are seeing traction on that. And with some of the partnerships we've announced and some others that we're already working with companies on, we see good momentum. So those are the 2 things that we are seeing. Some of the discretionary in FS, good momentum in those 2 energy utilities and financial services. And then in AI, more activity, which is different from this time of last year.**Salil Parekh:** ๋จผ์ € ์—๋„ˆ์ง€, ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์•ž์„œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๋‚ด์šฉ๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จ์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค์—์„œ๋Š” ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์—…๋ฌด๊ฐ€ ๋” ๋งŽ์ด ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋‚˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  AI ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ ํ›จ์”ฌ ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ํ™œ๋™์ด ์ผ์–ด๋‚˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Firstly, do you think this is the year when clients kind of move from the AI strategy being good to have to something of a necessity, right, which means that is this a year when foundational AI work starts getting taken seriously across verticals? That's the first one. And secondly, on the Cognition deal being a very interesting sort of partnership. Sort of very curious to know how you're pricing this, how you're taking it to clients? I mean, is Devin kind of initially leading to a bit of cannibalization in revenues? And sort of how are those contracts structured?

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director So on the first one, what we are seeing is there is more and more interest in AI work across different industries. So we will continue to see that going through the year. We will now watch and see because every quarter so far and especially in Q3, we have seen that interest, our pipeline, the number of projects, our penetration of our large 200 clients with AI work, all of that is going up, and it's across those different verticals. There is much more activity there, which we called out in financial services, but we also see that in telco. We see that in pharma, health care. We see that in energy utilities. We see a little bit in life sciences. So it's not like only one sector. But yes, in FS, it's quite a bit more. On Cognition, the way that works is basically the Devon software agent and our work, we are doing joint work in clients already today. So what tends to happen is there are certain sets of activity. For example, we see some things on legacy modernization where in the past, that was a large long commitment for clients. With this sort of combination between a software agent and Infosys and our knowledge of the client landscape and of the industry, those things become much more addressable. And so those sorts of newer areas, those are the 6 value pools that I referenced earlier. This is one of them. Those are the new areas that start to come into play. And in this particular case with Devin, that's one example. There are others where that agent can be used in different places. And that's the type of growth we are seeing because that's new work that would ordinarily not have been done at all, but now can be attempted in a combination.**Salil Parekh:** ์ฒซ ๋ฒˆ์งธ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋ฉด, ๋‹ค์–‘ํ•œ ์‚ฐ์—… ์ „๋ฐ˜์—์„œ AI ์—…๋ฌด์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ด€์‹ฌ์ด ์ ์  ๋” ๋†’์•„์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ถ”์„ธ๋Š” ์—ฐ์ค‘ ๋‚ด๋‚ด ์ง€์†๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ง€๊ธˆ๊นŒ์ง€ ๋งค ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋งˆ๋‹ค, ํŠนํžˆ 3๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๋ชฉ๊ฒฉํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์˜ ๊ด€์‹ฌ, ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ, ํ”„๋กœ์ ํŠธ ์ˆ˜, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ƒ์œ„ 200๋Œ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ AI ์—…๋ฌด ์นจํˆฌ์œจ์ด ๋ชจ๋‘ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์‚ฐ์—… ๋ถ„์•ผ์— ๊ฑธ์ณ ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋‚˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Chief Financial Officer: Jonathan, this is Jayesh here. I mean, whenever we have looked at the guidance, we do take into account multiple factors, the deals that we have signed, the deals that are ramping up and the usual factors affecting the quarter like calendar days, working days, et cetera, et cetera. So I think that is what has gone into guidance this time as well. What I can tell you is at the lower end, we have baked in a higher amount of uncertainty.

Chief Financial Officer: Yes.

And that is how the subcon uptick or downtick happens in the market in our scenario, and that is what has happened this quarter as well.

Vibhor Singhal: Nuvama Wealth Management Limited, Research Division Congrats on a solid performance. Salil, my question was on 2 key verticals, manufacturing and the High-Tech division. So manufacturing, just wanted to pick your brains on how are you seeing the traction in this vertical, given the kind of headwinds the auto companies are seeing globally in terms of their EV rollouts and the competition. How are different parts of the manufacturing vertical looking like at this point of time? And do you expect the momentum to pick up in that? On the High-Tech vertical, just again, I think we saw a sharp drop in this quarter, might have been due to seasonality of furloughs. But anything that you're looking at? This vertical has been around $370 million, $380 million kind of run rate for us for quite a while now. What are you looking at in this vertical in terms of next drivers of growth? And are we seeing any momentum building up in this in the near future?**Vibhor Singhal:** ์‹ค์ ์ด ๊ฒฌ์กฐํ•ด์„œ ์ถ•ํ•˜๋“œ๋ฆฝ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director On manufacturing, as you mentioned, there is weakness in automotive and in some parts of industrial across Europe. We see some strength in some elements where the manufacturing, and this is partially in U.S., partially in Europe, is supplying capability, which is coming for the build-out of the data centers and so on. So there are some of those companies which are benefiting from that. But the automotive side, as you mentioned, we see that continuing to be weak. We are focused on expanding our base there. So we are looking at and have successfully worked now with multiple automotive companies. And we also see that going beyond automotive as the broader manufacturing, which is supplying capabilities to the boom in AI and data center activity, not the services is what is going to help us in manufacturing. On High-tech, similarly, there's groups of companies which are strong. There are groups which need more attention, and we have a portfolio of those companies. Overall, there is still cost pressure in High-tech, and we will push. There is a lot of productivity activity that is going on there where clients are looking for productivity benefits. And they are also looking some of them for where they will get their growth into -- again, some of the companies which are supplying servers, et cetera, we are seeing those are doing pretty well with the AI boom. The others are looking for where are the growth elements that are going to come, and we are supporting that work.

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director So I think in the medium term or longer, my sense is high-tech is a good industry. We are very comfortable to be in it, as you pointed out, with different ways of AI impacting it across different value pools, they will also go through those changes. But we have to make sure that we are providing them the services that they're looking for and in a way that they have a lot of cost pressures today that becomes manageable in their cost structure. But I mean, there's no time line in my mind.

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director Yes. So Keith, it is similar to what we have seen in any other technology wave. If you are ahead of the curve, you will see an increase in your productivity because of the premium that you can keep with you. If you're behind the curve, then you probably will see a dip. The only measurement that would change here is the premium is measured now in terms of productivity. So if you are delivering better productivity, you would be able to keep some of that with you, which is -- which will get reflected in pricing, better pricing. If you are behind the curve in delivering the productivity, you would see a dip in pricing. So that's how you will see in a traditional environment, the only change I would say is the pricing models per se are also changing and emerging. There are newer and newer pricing models are emerging, how do you price agents, how do you price the underlying platform, et cetera. But early days to say at this point in time, how will that reflect in terms of linearity or nonlinearity.**Salil Parekh:** ๋„ค, Keith. ์ด๊ฒƒ์€ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ๋ณ€ํ™”์˜ ๋ฌผ๊ฒฐ์—์„œ ๋ด์™”๋˜ ๊ฒƒ๊ณผ ์œ ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งŒ์•ฝ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ถ„์ด ์•ž์„œ ๋‚˜๊ฐ€๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋ฉด, ํ”„๋ฆฌ๋ฏธ์—„์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์— ์ƒ์‚ฐ์„ฑ ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋ฅผ ๋ณด๊ฒŒ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ฐ˜๋Œ€๋กœ ๋’ค์ฒ˜์ ธ ์žˆ๋‹ค๋ฉด ์•„๋งˆ๋„ ํ•˜๋ฝ์„ ๊ฒฝํ—˜ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋  ๊ฒ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฌ๊ธฐ์„œ ๋‹ฌ๋ผ์ง€๋Š” ์œ ์ผํ•œ ์ธก์ • ๊ธฐ์ค€์€ ์ด์ œ ํ”„๋ฆฌ๋ฏธ์—„์ด ์ƒ์‚ฐ์„ฑ ์ธก๋ฉด์—์„œ ์ธก์ •๋œ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋”ฐ๋ผ์„œ ๋” ๋‚˜์€ ์ƒ์‚ฐ์„ฑ์„ ์ œ๊ณตํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋ฉด, ๊ทธ ์ค‘ ์ผ๋ถ€๋ฅผ ๊ฐ€์ ธ๊ฐˆ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๊ณ , ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์ฑ…์ •์— ๋ฐ˜์˜๋˜์–ด ๋” ๋‚˜์€ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ์„ ๋ฐ›๊ฒŒ ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งŒ์•ฝ ์ƒ์‚ฐ์„ฑ ์ œ๊ณต์—์„œ ๋’ค์ฒ˜์ ธ ์žˆ๋‹ค๋ฉด ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ํ•˜๋ฝ์„ ๋ณด๊ฒŒ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ „ํ†ต์ ์ธ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์—์„œ๋„ ์ด๋ ‡๊ฒŒ ๋ณด์‹ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์‹ถ์€ ์œ ์ผํ•œ ๋ณ€ํ™”๋Š” ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์ฑ…์ • ๋ชจ๋ธ ์ž์ฒด๋„ ๋ณ€ํ™”ํ•˜๊ณ  ์ง„ํ™”ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ ์  ๋” ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ๋ชจ๋ธ๋“ค์ด ๋“ฑ์žฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—์ด์ „ํŠธ๋ฅผ ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์ฑ…์ •ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ธ์ง€, ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ํ”Œ๋žซํผ์„ ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์ฑ…์ •ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ธ์ง€ ๋“ฑ์˜ ๋ฌธ์ œ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ํ˜„ ์‹œ์ ์—์„œ ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ์„ ํ˜•์„ฑ ๋˜๋Š” ๋น„์„ ํ˜•์„ฑ ์ธก๋ฉด์—์„œ ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ๋ฐ˜์˜๋ ์ง€ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ์•„์ง ์ด๋ฅธ ๋‹จ๊ณ„์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

And is that also -- does that also mean that your overall renewals may have a little bit higher leakage than usually that you used to have, let's say, in the past because of the whole narrative around AI deflation that is coming on the legacy services?**Gaurav Rateria:** ์ง€๋‚œ ๋ช‡ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋™์•ˆ ๊ณ„์•ฝ ๊ฐฑ์‹  ๊ฒฝํ—˜์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์–ด๋–ค ์ธ์‚ฌ์ดํŠธ๋ฅผ ๊ณต์œ ํ•ด ์ฃผ์‹ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„๊นŒ์š”? ํŠนํžˆ ๋ ˆ๊ฑฐ์‹œ ๋น„์ฆˆ๋‹ˆ์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ AI ์‚ฌ์ดํด๋กœ ์ธํ•ด ๋ฆฌํ”„๋ ˆ์‹œ ์••๋ฐ•์„ ๋ฐ›๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ•˜์…จ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์–ด๋–ค ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ผ์ธ์—์„œ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ํŠธ๋ Œ๋“œ๊ฐ€ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ๋‘๋“œ๋Ÿฌ์ง€๊ฒŒ ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋‚˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‚˜์š”? ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด AI๋กœ ์ธํ•œ ๋””ํ”Œ๋ ˆ์ด์…˜ ์ด์•ผ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์— ๊ณผ๊ฑฐ์— ๋น„ํ•ด ์ „์ฒด์ ์ธ ๊ณ„์•ฝ ๊ฐฑ์‹ ์—์„œ ์ดํƒˆ๋ฅ ์ด ๋‹ค์†Œ ๋†’์•„์งˆ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์˜๋ฏธ์ธ๊ฐ€์š”?

Gaurav Rateria: Morgan Stanley, Research Division My question is on the deal renewal cycle. Your comment did allude to significant productivity benefit on the legacy services. So anything that you could share from what you have seen on the renewals of your larger deals, specifically using some of the AI tools? What has been the learning there? Has there been some amount of leakage, which has been higher than usual?**Gaurav Rateria:**

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director Gaurav, this is Salil. So on the large deals, we are typically seeing whether it's renewals or also deals which are -- we are winning from other companies where we are beneficiaries of consolidation. Typically, across the board, there is a large expectation from clients on AI productivity benefits. What we have done is we have modeled in what we are seeing today and built a path to that because these are typically 3-, 5-year deals. But we are also not in a position where sometimes the client expectations over 5 years are very different. So we have what we are seeing and there we can view what that sort of a benefit is that we can provide because these are multiyear sort of deals. Having said that, we don't see -- in fact, we are winning on large deals quite a lot. If you look at the numbers in the 3 quarters, we have done more than the full year of the previous year. And Q3 was already $4.8 billion. We've seen some net new deals, for example, NHS. So yes, there is that productivity. But yes, we are also benefiting from consolidation and winning things across the board where my sense is we are gaining on the market share side.**Salil Parekh:** ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ณ„์•ฝ์˜ ๊ฒฝ์šฐ, ๊ฐฑ์‹  ๊ฑด์ด๋“  ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ํšŒ์‚ฌ๋กœ๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ˆ˜์ฃผํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฑด์ด๋“  - ํ†ตํ•ฉ์˜ ์ˆ˜ํ˜œ๋ฅผ ๋ฐ›๋Š” ๊ฒฝ์šฐ์ธ๋ฐ์š” - ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์œผ๋กœ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด AI ์ƒ์‚ฐ์„ฑ ํšจ๊ณผ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ํฐ ๊ธฐ๋Œ€๋ฅผ ๊ฐ–๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ์ทจํ•œ ์ ‘๊ทผ์€ ํ˜„์žฌ ํ™•์ธ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ํšจ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ชจ๋ธ๋งํ•˜๊ณ , ๊ทธ๊ฒƒ์„ ํ–ฅํ•œ ๊ฒฝ๋กœ๋ฅผ ๊ตฌ์ถ•ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ณดํ†ต 3๋…„์—์„œ 5๋…„ ๊ณ„์•ฝ์ด๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ด์ฃ . ๋‹ค๋งŒ ๋•Œ๋กœ๋Š” 5๋…„์— ๊ฑธ์นœ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์˜ ๊ธฐ๋Œ€์น˜๊ฐ€ ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ๊ฒฝ์šฐ๋„ ์žˆ์–ด์„œ, ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ํ™•์ธํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์„ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜์œผ๋กœ ์ œ๊ณตํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ํšจ๊ณผ์˜ ์ˆ˜์ค€์„ ์ œ์‹œํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฐ ๋‹ค๋…„ ๊ณ„์•ฝ์ด๋‹ค ๋ณด๋‹ˆ๊นŒ์š”.

Gaurav Rateria: Morgan Stanley, Research Division Got it. My next question on your visibility for CY '26, fair to say that looks better than the last year because last year, you entered into the year where you had a big decline in the fourth quarter because of some specific issues. And this year, your guidance alludes to kind of a much better fourth quarter outlook. So your exit rate is much better than the last year. Does it mean that it gives you a little bit of a tailwind when you get into the FY '27 compared to last year when you got into FY '26?**Gaurav Rateria:** ๋„ค, ๋งž์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 26๋…„๋„ ๊ฐ€์‹œ์„ฑ์€ ์ž‘๋…„๋ณด๋‹ค ํ™•์‹คํžˆ ์ข‹์•„ ๋ณด์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ž‘๋…„์—๋Š” ํŠน์ • ์ด์Šˆ๋“ค๋กœ ์ธํ•ด 4๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ํฐ ํญ์˜ ํ•˜๋ฝ์„ ๊ฒช์œผ๋ฉฐ ํ•œ ํ•ด๋ฅผ ์‹œ์ž‘ํ–ˆ์ฃ . ์˜ฌํ•ด๋Š” ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ๋ณด์‹œ๋ฉด 4๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ „๋ง์ด ํ›จ์”ฌ ์ข‹์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ์—ฐ๋ง ์‹ค์  ํ๋ฆ„(exit rate)์ด ์ž‘๋…„๋ณด๋‹ค ํ›จ์”ฌ ๋‚˜์€ ์ƒํ™ฉ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” 27ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„๋กœ ์ง„์ž…ํ•  ๋•Œ ์ž‘๋…„์— 26ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„๋กœ ๋“ค์–ด๊ฐˆ ๋•Œ๋ณด๋‹ค ์–ด๋А ์ •๋„ ์ˆœํ’์„ ๋ฐ›๊ฒŒ ๋œ๋‹ค๋Š” ์˜๋ฏธ๋กœ ๋ด๋„ ๋˜๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๊นŒ?
Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director I think the way you have described it, you have done the maths on that one because what we can see is -- our guidance for the full year, we have the range, which gives us a good traction on Q4 with a lot of the good deals that have come and what we saw in Q3. Then we are seeing the discretionary coming back in financial services. Then we are seeing energy, utilities and financial services looking better in the next financial year than this financial year. And then we are seeing in AI services, the 6 value pools where we see a good growth opportunity. So all in all, that gives us a good, let's say, good view of next year.**Salil Parekh:** ๋ง์”€ํ•˜์‹  ๋ฐฉ์‹๋Œ€๋กœ ๊ณ„์‚ฐ์„ ์ž˜ ํ•ด์ฃผ์‹  ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์€ ์—ฐ๊ฐ„ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ๋ฒ”์œ„์ธ๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” 4๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ข‹์€ ๊ฒฌ์ธ๋ ฅ์„ ์ œ๊ณตํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŠนํžˆ 3๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ์ฒด๊ฒฐ๋œ ๋งŽ์€ ์ข‹์€ ๋”œ๋“ค์ด ์žˆ์—ˆ๊ณ ์š”. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์ง€์ถœ(discretionary spending)์ด ๋Œ์•„์˜ค๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์„ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ ์—๋„ˆ์ง€, ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ, ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์ด ์˜ฌํ•ด๋ณด๋‹ค ๋‚ด๋…„ ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์— ๋” ๋‚˜์•„ ๋ณด์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฌ๊ธฐ์— AI ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ„์•ผ์˜ 6๊ฐœ ๊ฐ€์น˜ ํ’€(value pool)์—์„œ ์ข‹์€ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๊ธฐํšŒ๋ฅผ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ณ ์š”. ์ด ๋ชจ๋“  ๊ฒƒ์„ ์ข…ํ•ฉํ•˜๋ฉด ๋‚ด๋…„์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ธ์ •์ ์ธ ์ „๋ง์„ ๊ฐ–๊ฒŒ ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director On the AI part, so there are 2 things. One is there are deals which are only AI. One is where AI is pervasive in every -- in a service we are offering. So it's difficult, therefore, to say the size of the deal. But in general, the usage of AI is much more across all our services. And the actual only AI, if you can call it like that, deals are also going better. So that's what's happening. I think on that modernization, if I understood, yes, we are seeing that across the board because AI can open up that and make it a little bit more efficient for the client and therefore, more -- like they'll have a better return on that. And then will the discretionary come after that? That one, we don't know, meaning it depends on the industry situation also for that. Like what we see right now is in financial services, we are seeing it. But the other industries, we'll see how they play out as each one we've given some color. That will be different for different industries is what we think.**Salil Parekh:** AI ๋ถ€๋ถ„์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋ฉด, ๋‘ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์ธก๋ฉด์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜๋‚˜๋Š” ์ˆœ์ˆ˜ํ•˜๊ฒŒ AI๋งŒ ๋‹ค๋ฃจ๋Š” ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜๊ฐ€ ์žˆ๊ณ ์š”. ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ํ•˜๋‚˜๋Š” ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ œ๊ณตํ•˜๋Š” ๋ชจ๋“  ์„œ๋น„์Šค์— AI๊ฐ€ ๊ด‘๋ฒ”์œ„ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์ ์šฉ๋˜๋Š” ๊ฒฝ์šฐ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜ ๊ทœ๋ชจ๋ฅผ ๋ช…ํ™•ํžˆ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ธฐ๋Š” ์–ด๋ ต์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ชจ๋“  ์„œ๋น„์Šค์—์„œ AI ํ™œ์šฉ์ด ํ›จ์”ฌ ๋” ๋งŽ์•„์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ˆœ์ˆ˜ AI ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜๋ผ๊ณ  ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ๋“ค๋„ ๋” ์ข‹์•„์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ณ ์š”. ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ ์ƒํ™ฉ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Is there a traction in terms of number of deals below $50 million has now started increasing and this could be a trend to continue rather than volatile trend earlier? And just 2 questions to Jayesh. Is it fair to assume third-party items as their cost line as a percentage to revenue for this year, which we guided at the start of the year, may be stable here on or may further decline beyond FY '26.

Chief Financial Officer: Yes. So Sandeep, this is Jayesh here. If you look at the third-party deals this year, beginning of the year, we had said we expect the third-party cost to be lower than the previous year on back of the deals that we signed in last year that were getting ramped up, the deals that we saw in the pipeline.

Chief Financial Officer: Yes. So there are always some one-offs, right, that you get some headwinds, some tailwinds. Sometimes it's in revenue line item, sometimes it's a cost line item for a company of this size. So that is always there. As I talked about in my margin walk also, this was largely offset by -- or more than offset by the increase in variable pay as well.**Chief Financial Officer:** ๋„ค, ํ•ญ์ƒ ์ผํšŒ์„ฑ ์š”์ธ๋“ค์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ญํ’๋„ ์žˆ๊ณ  ์ˆœํ’๋„ ์žˆ์ฃ . ๋•Œ๋กœ๋Š” ๋งค์ถœ ํ•ญ๋ชฉ์—์„œ, ๋•Œ๋กœ๋Š” ๋น„์šฉ ํ•ญ๋ชฉ์—์„œ ๋ฐœ์ƒํ•˜๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด ์ •๋„ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์˜ ํšŒ์‚ฌ์—์„œ๋Š” ๋Š˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์ผ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋งˆ์ง„ ๋ณ€๋™ ์„ค๋ช…์—์„œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ธ๋“ฏ์ด, ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์š”์ธ๋“ค์€ ๋ณ€๋™๊ธ‰์—ฌ ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋ถ„์œผ๋กœ ๋Œ€๋ถ€๋ถ„ ์ƒ์‡„๋˜์—ˆ๊ณ , ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ๋Š” ๊ทธ ์ด์ƒ์œผ๋กœ ์ƒ์‡„๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

James Friedman: Susquehanna Financial Group, LLLP, Research Division I had 2 questions. I'll just ask them upfront. Salil, it's great to see the improvement in discretionary and financial services. I was wondering if you have any comment as to whether you're seeing that or anticipating that expand into other verticals. And you mentioned Energy and Resources. And then my second question is, in terms of your thinking about the journey between AI and agentification, it seems like your thinking has evolved more towards the agentification. If you could -- and I imagine you'll address this at the Analyst Day, but if you could think -- if you could describe how you are thinking about the productization of your AI initiatives relative to those 2 dimensions. So first, AI and then agentification?**James Friedman:** ๋‘ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์งˆ๋ฌธ ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋จผ์ € ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director So on the first, I think -- on financial services, we are absolutely seeing that, which we shared. On energy utilities, because of the deals and the fact that we are in the top 15 of 25 clients doing AI work, we see clearly next financial year will be growth over this financial year. We are looking in other places as that discretionary will start to come back. And as it does, we will absolutely share that. We do feel that overall, from what we see on AI, what we see with possibilities on the economic growth, GDP growth and so on in the U.S. that those signs will give us the clients the ability to spend on tech. But as we see it, we will share that for sure on the other industries. On AI, so first, agents are very much in a big play today. So we are absolutely on the forefront of that. So what we have built within Topaz is fabric, Topaz Fabric, we call it, is a set of purpose-built agents, which work with many different native AI companies interfaces and can support a lot of different functions within clients, horizontal and vertical. So that suite is going to be our agent suite. Then there are agents of the other companies, which we will integrate, implement, expand, make it work because we know the tech landscape of a client, and we know the industry depth. So there, we feel quite good that we are in a better position than many people to put that. In terms of productization, we have built 4 small language models. In our own product suite, in Finacle, we will be much more AI orientated. But we are not at today's stage planning to do large-scale foundational model work. We are going to do small language model work. We will do other things, for example, there are a set of AI wrappers or orchestration modules that we can build, which will enable clients to switch between foundation models, switch between agents, do a selection of agents, but those are not -- so that's a different type of product platform, which is all in Topaz. So that is the way we are thinking about it today. We may, in the future, have something more, but that's like the current view.**Salil Parekh:** ์ฒซ ๋ฒˆ์งธ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์ธ ๊ธˆ์œต ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๊ฒƒ์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ ํ™•์‹คํžˆ ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ ํ๋ฆ„์„ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—๋„ˆ์ง€ ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์˜ ๊ฒฝ์šฐ, ์ง„ํ–‰ ์ค‘์ธ ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜๋“ค๊ณผ AI ์ž‘์—…์„ ํ•˜๋Š” ์ƒ์œ„ 25๊ฐœ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ ์ค‘ 15๊ฐœ ์•ˆ์— ๋“ค์–ด์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์„ ๊ฐ์•ˆํ•˜๋ฉด, ๋‹ค์Œ ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์—๋Š” ์˜ฌํ•ด ๋Œ€๋น„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์ด ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ช…ํ™•ํžˆ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ๋“ค์—์„œ๋„ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์ง€์ถœ์ด ๋Œ์•„์˜ค๊ธฐ ์‹œ์ž‘ํ•˜๋Š”์ง€ ์‚ดํŽด๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ณ , ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ ์›€์ง์ž„์ด ๋ณด์ด๋ฉด ๋‹น์—ฐํžˆ ๊ณต์œ ํ•˜๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์œผ๋กœ AI์—์„œ ๋ณด์ด๋Š” ๊ฒƒ๋“ค, ๋ฏธ๊ตญ์˜ ๊ฒฝ์ œ ์„ฑ์žฅ๊ณผ GDP ์„ฑ์žฅ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅ์„ฑ ๋“ฑ์„ ๊ณ ๋ คํ•  ๋•Œ, ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์‹ ํ˜ธ๋“ค์ด ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“ค์—๊ฒŒ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ํˆฌ์ž๋ฅผ ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์—ฌ๋ ฅ์„ ์ค„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค๋งŒ ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ์‚ฐ์—…๊ตฐ๋“ค์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ํ™•์ธ๋˜๋Š” ๋Œ€๋กœ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director So on the first one, what we are thinking is in that 6 areas, today, we are starting to do work in many of those areas. But what we want to do is in our Investor Day, go into a little bit more depth. For example, we will share like in several industries, what we are doing in some of the areas. We will share like we have AI labs on campus, and we want to do a little walk through to show like actually the work that is going on. And we will also share like the scale of what we think that opportunity is and the possible growth dynamics in that. So that's our planning for that Investor Day. And the second one, what did you ask?**Salil Parekh:** ์ฒซ ๋ฒˆ์งธ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š”, 6๊ฐœ ์˜์—ญ์—์„œ ํ˜„์žฌ ์ด๋ฏธ ๋งŽ์€ ์ž‘์—…๋“ค์„ ์ง„ํ–‰ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค๋งŒ ํˆฌ์ž์ž์˜ ๋‚ (Investor Day)์—์„œ๋Š” ์ข€ ๋” ์‹ฌ๋„ ์žˆ๊ฒŒ ๋‹ค๋ฃฐ ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ˆ๋ฅผ ๋“ค์–ด, ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์‚ฐ์—…๊ตฐ์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ํŠน์ • ์˜์—ญ๋“ค์—์„œ ์–ด๋–ค ์ผ์„ ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š”์ง€ ๊ณต์œ ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ ์บ ํผ์Šค ๋‚ด์— AI ์—ฐ๊ตฌ์†Œ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ์ง„ํ–‰ ์ค‘์ธ ์ž‘์—…๋“ค์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ๊ฐ„๋‹จํ•œ ํˆฌ์–ด๋„ ์ค€๋น„ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•˜๋Š” ๊ธฐํšŒ์˜ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์™€ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•œ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๋™๋ ฅ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋„ ๊ณต์œ ํ•  ๊ณ„ํš์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ํˆฌ์ž์ž์˜ ๋‚ ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๊ณ„ํš์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๋‘ ๋ฒˆ์งธ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์€ ๋ฌด์—‡์ด์—ˆ์ฃ ?

Salil Parekh: MD, CEO & Director Okay. Thank you, everyone, for joining and for such a detailed and insightful set of questions. I just want to leave a few comments. First, we've had a strong quarter, good large deals, increase in our guidance. Our 9-month margin sits at 21%. We've actually done that after absorbing a very strong increase in our sales cost of 50 basis points and with some lower utilization, which we are building capacity for the future. We also see a huge shift on AI, which we shared in some of the 6 areas plus some of the partnerships. We start to see discretionary coming back in financial services. And in energy, utilities and financial services, we start to see that next year looking better than this year. So overall, we feel good as we go into the fourth quarter with our increase in guidance. Thank you, everyone, and catch you at the next quarterly call.**Salil Parekh:** ๊ฐ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฐธ์„ํ•ด ์ฃผ์‹œ๊ณ  ์ƒ์„ธํ•˜๊ณ  ํ†ต์ฐฐ๋ ฅ ์žˆ๋Š” ์งˆ๋ฌธ๋“ค ์ฃผ์…”์„œ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“œ๋ฆฝ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ช‡ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์‹ถ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋จผ์ €, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์‹ค์ ์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ๊ณ , ๋Œ€ํ˜• ๊ณ„์•ฝ๋“ค์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ์ƒํ–ฅ ์กฐ์ •ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 9๊ฐœ์›” ๋งˆ์ง„์€ 21%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ์˜์—…๋น„์šฉ์ด 50bp ํฌ๊ฒŒ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์„ ํก์ˆ˜ํ•˜๊ณ , ๋ฏธ๋ž˜ ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰ ๊ตฌ์ถ•์„ ์œ„ํ•ด ๊ฐ€๋™๋ฅ ์ด ๋‹ค์†Œ ๋‚ฎ์•˜์Œ์—๋„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•œ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ AI ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ ์—„์ฒญ๋‚œ ๋ณ€ํ™”๋ฅผ ๋ชฉ๊ฒฉํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” 6๊ฐœ ์˜์—ญ๊ณผ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ํŒŒํŠธ๋„ˆ์‹ญ์„ ํ†ตํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๋ฐ” ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ธˆ์œต์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์ง€์ถœ์ด ๋Œ์•„์˜ค๊ธฐ ์‹œ์ž‘ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์—๋„ˆ์ง€, ์œ ํ‹ธ๋ฆฌํ‹ฐ, ๊ธˆ์œต์„œ๋น„์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ๋‚ด๋…„์ด ์˜ฌํ•ด๋ณด๋‹ค ๋” ๋‚˜์•„์งˆ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
