On behalf of
Infosys, I would like to welcome all of you. We request one question, or let us say, restricted number of questions from each media house
to accommodate everyone over the next hour. And with that, let me invite our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Salil Parekh, for his opening
remarks. Over to you, Salil.
Salil Parekh
Thanks Rishi
and good evening, good afternoon, welcome to everyone that is here. It is always wonderful to have all of you here with us on the campus.
I am sure you have seen there are a lot more people on the campus as well, and we are also benefiting from that.
We have had
a very strong Q1. Our Q1 growth was solid at 4.2% year-on-year, 1% Q-on-Q in constant currency. We had 20% growth in manufacturing, 13%
in life sciences. Our European business grew by 10%. Our operating margin for the quarter was strong at 20.8%.
Our large deals
value for Q1 was at $2.3 bn - 56% of this was net new. This included one mega deal win. We also announced a mega deal with a value of
$2 bn after the close of Q1, but before our results. With strong large deal and mega deal wins, we are building well for the future.
We are delighted
that Topaz, our Generative AI platform is resonating well with our clients. We are working on 80 Generative AI projects for our clients
at this time. The work we are doing, covers large language models for software development, for text, document, voice, and video.
Internally,
we have developed Generative AI tools based on open-source model of Generative AI platforms that are focused on software development.
We have trained 40,000 employees in this area, and we see Generative AI and Topaz being transformational for all of our clients.
In the short
term, we see some clients stopping or slowing down transformation programs and discretionary work. This is especially so in financial
services, in mortgages, asset management, investment banking, payments, and in telecom. We also see some impact in hi-tech industry and
in parts of retail.
Even as we
have won two mega deals recently, we have a strong pipeline of large and mega deals. We see revenue from some of these and other large
deals towards the later part of our financial year. Keeping that in mind, we are changing our revenue growth guidance for this financial
year to growth of between 1% to 3.5% in constant currency.
We have launched
a broad comprehensive margin expansion program. The program will work across five areas: pyramid efficiency, automation, improvements
in critical portfolios, reducing indirect costs, and communicating and deriving value across our portfolio.
We have an
ambition to improve our operating margins in the future periods. Our operating margin guidance for this financial year remains unchanged
at between 20% and 22%.
With that,
let us open it up for questions. Rishi.
Rishi Basu
Thank you,
Salil. We will now open the floor for questions. Joining Salil is Mr. Nilanjan Roy, Chief Financial Officer, Infosys. With that, we have
the first question from Ritu Singh from CNBC TV18.
Ritu Singh
Hi.. The first
question, of course, is on your guidance cut. It was a steady quarter for Infosys, whether it is the constant currency growth, the mega
deals that you have announced, couple in the quarter and after the quarter close. And your TCV is also higher than the previous quarter.
What has so drastically changed in the last three months for you to cut your guidance from 4% - 7% to 1% - 3.5%, and given that top-line
you are expecting lower now for the year, how are you confident of maintaining margins at 20% to 22% for the year? That is the first question.
And also, you
know, your commentary from clients in terms of when you see, revival in your discretionary spends from whether it is BFSI, retail, hitech
all these areas of concern that you have outlined. And your net employee reductions for the last couple of quarters, that has also been
coming down. So, we wanted to understand what your hiring plans are? We understand you have already deferred pay hikes for some of the
employees, if you could give us a sense on that? Thank you.
Salil Parekh
On the first
point, on the revenue growth guidance, we have, as you rightly pointed out, had a good Q1. We have had good large and mega deals. We
have also seen some of these deals, the signings and the start dates being delayed. With that, we see a lot of that revenue from that
sort of large and mega deals towards the later part of the financial year. And through the quarter, we have seen volumes in some of our
clients, in the industries that I shared, were impacted where they were reducing transformational projects or slowing down decision making.
So, when we combined those two and we looked out for the full year, we saw that sort of a range in terms of the growth guidance and decided
that we should change our growth guidance.
Rishi Basu
Thank you.
We will try to come back to you.
Ritu Singh
That did not
answer my question.
Salil Parekh
On the margin,
we have an extremely strong discipline for our operating margin. We have put in place this expanded margin program that I was referring
to. There are five elements of that program, each of them being driven to make sure we have efficiency. You have also seen utilization
in Q1 go up, and we will continue to see that with all the focus we are putting into productivity. We are also looking at reducing, within
those five elements, indirect spends, and cuts of that nature. So, we feel comfortable with our operating margin guidance. And our operating
margin for Q1 at 20.8% was more towards the middle part of that range.
Ritu Singh
We have seen
a reduction in the headcount for the last couple of quarters, keeping that in mind, what are your hiring plans for the year?
Salil Parekh
So, we still
have a target for recruiting for the year, but we will see how that plays out with respect to, what are the changes in terms of the demand
environment and what we do in terms of the attrition numbers that we are seeing. The attrition that we saw in the quarter was stable versus
last quarter. Our trailing last 12-month attrition is down to around 17%. So, we see that driving some of the decisions on the recruitments.
Ritu Singh
What did you
say, your target for hiring for the year was?
Salil Parekh
We have not
given that target. We said, we will look at that based on what that demand environment looks like and how we see the rest of the year
playing out.
Rishi Basu
Thanks, Ritu.
The next question is from Haripriya Sureban from The Hindu Business Line.
Haripriya
Sureban
What is it
just for the transformational deals that you are seeing? Or has it translated to the cost takeout kind of - regular kind of deals as well?
And given that AI, you have mentioned, you have many active projects, do you think that will sort of help you with margins as well, given
that it is coming at a higher price point?
Salil Parekh
So, on the
first, the decision making we see has slowed down across large programs. The way a lot of the transformation programs that are running
today, they are funded from cost efficiency that comes through that program itself. So overall, the decision making sometimes is slowing
down. And we are seeing the start dates in terms of where some of these programs are likely to start, more towards the back end of the
year. And that is the reason we are seeing the revenue impact through the year.
On Generative
AI, we are excited to be doing 80 projects. AI programs generally have a good margin. They have a lot of work which is focused on enhancing
productivity, driving new areas of growth. But at this stage, it is a start. So, we will see when that scales up what the impact of margin
is.
Rishi Basu
Thank you.
The next question is from Shilpa Phadnis from The Times of India.
Shilpa Phadnis
Hello Sir.
If you just look at your sequential revenue growth of 1%,
On an annualized
basis, you could have grown at 4% and your guidance is sub-par. So, I just wanted to understand from you, are there deep client concerns
that has, you know, made Infosys scale down the guidance significantly?
Salil Parekh
So, the discussion
on the guidance is sort of similar. We have seen many of these large and mega deal wins really give us much more confidence in the way
clients are working with us, especially on cost efficiency, even with financial services, when we announce on transformation and also
consolidation. However, there have been delays in the start of some of these programs and the decision-making in those.
Coupled with
that, we have also seen some of the volume during the quarter coming down because of clients in the industries that I mentioned, so financial
services, asset management, payments, mortgages, telco, etc., in those specific industries, reducing their volume of work. And those two
things have combined for reducing the guidance.
Shilpa Phadnis
I had one more
question on your deal win. You spoke about the $2 bn deal win. Would that qualify as Infosys' biggest win that could potentially surpass
Daimler?
Salil Parekh
So first, we
are now sharing the deal value making sure that that is aligned to the regulations that are there. For the past, we have actually never
shared the deal value. So, it will be difficult to compare that.
Shilpa Phadnis
And one last
thing on the headcount, Sir. The sector itself is going through a lot of people challenges, you know, deferments of hikes and increments.
So, if you can please clarify, what is the kind of hikes that you plan to roll out this year? Is it going to be deferred at all levels?
We are getting to hear that senior level hikes are getting deferred. Can you please throw some light on that?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yes. So
actually, on the compensations, we are actively under consideration as we speak. So, I am sure, you will hear of it even before we finalize
that, but it is under active consideration.
Rishi
Basu
Thank you.
The next question is from Chandra Ranganathan and Haripriya Suresh from Moneycontrol.com.
Chandra
Ranganathan
Hi. Salil,
you know, on the guidance, again, I wanted to understand what has changed in one quarter, 4%-7% to, you know, 1%-3.5%, any specific ramp-downs
that you are seeing, what exactly is happening? And when we spoke to other managements, they say that, even though transformative programs,
discretionary has slowed down, clients are still going in for short-term ROI projects. So, you know, is that something that you are looking
at in the pipeline?
Secondly,
Nilanjan, on the hikes, you said it is under consideration, by when do you expect to announce?
Haripriya
Suresh
Hi, also wanted
to get some perspective on your, you have seen some top level exits recently as well. Is that a matter of concern? And what are you doing
to sort of stem top level attrition? Just wanted to understand that.
Salil Parekh
So, the first
question on the guidance, I think the way we have seen it is, what we saw in the start of the quarter, we had a certain view of where
our large and mega deals were in terms of, when they would close and when some of that work would start. Plus, what was the volume on
the other programs, on the transformation programs, on the digital programs, on our overall volume of work across the portfolio.
What we
saw is some of the start dates for the large deals, the mega deals were more later in the year. And the decision making, even as we have
announced two of them, we still have some in our pipeline and we will see those over the course of the year as the pipeline evolves, and
the volume which we saw the changes in for many discretionary projects or some of the transformation work.
Combining
all of that is where we decided that this was the guidance in terms of the growth that we could see today in terms of the outlook. What
we do see is, as we look towards the back end of the year, much more growth orientation, because some of these deals will at that stage
start to deliver their revenue as well.
Chandra
Ranganathan
Short term,
are you seeing more, the nature of the deals becoming more short term, ROI, cost takeout?
Salil Parekh
Yes, so
we are definitely seeing consolidation, cost efficiency, automation, but we are not seeing short term, meaning short projects like that.
But those are the types of deals we are seeing which is more focused on the efficiency as opposed to transformation.
On
the compensation, Nilanjan will come, I will just go with the third one first. We have seen, we have announced and rolled out our
new leadership structure within the company. We have the great fortune of having incredible leadership talent within the company. And
each of them, several of them are stepping up into new roles, driving the growth of this business.
As you can
see from these two mega deals and other large deals, overall strength of the business, those people have stepped in, and my sense is Infosys
will continue to produce those sort of leaders.
Nilanjan
Roy
Yes, so
I think, like I said, this is under consideration, so we will come back on the timing etc., but as of now, we are looking at it. We are
looking at it as we speak.
Rishi
Basu
Thank you.
The next question is from Sai Ishwar from the Economic Times.
Sai Ishwarbharath
Hello, gentlemen.
So, Salil, you were talking about the fall in volumes across the portfolio, right? So, what exactly is the reason for this fall in volume?
Are clients fearing the recession and tightening their spends. And I just wanted to ask about the $100 mn-plus clients, it is falling
by 2 sequentially. So, is that because of the ramp-down or is it because of projects getting completed? Thank you.
Salil Parekh
On the first
one, the volumes, there mainly, it is clients in the industries that I was referencing, trying to maintain their cost discipline to reduce
what they consider discretionary in the short term. So, we see many of these sorts of actions, for example, in mortgages and financial
services, or we see that in telecom, or we see that in investment banking, or we see that in hitech. Those are the sorts of projects that
typically have got less attention in Q1.
Sai Ishwarbharath
So, have you
priced in, like you said a lot of these start dates are baked in the second half of the year, right? So, the guidance now has baked in
all the expected revenues, or do we see any improvement in guidance?
Salil Parekh
What we have
announced as our wins on large deals and mega deals that is already in the guidance we have given. As we go through the year, as there
are more events in terms of wins, we will see what impact that has. There could be impacts which are positive there could be impacts,
depending on some of things, gets delayed or not. But as of what we see today is what we have put into the guidance.
Nilanjan
Roy
On those two,
I mean, I cannot specifically comment on those two specific clients. But generally, as Salil said, the overall impact had a discretionary
spend cut rather than any projects fundamentally getting over, that is the general theme.
Sai Ishwarbharath
So, they shifted
one bucket lower?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yes, they shifted.
So, if you see above 50, that is not changed.
Rishi
Basu
Thank you,
Sai. The next question is from Ayushman Baruah from the Business Standard.
Ayushman
Baruah
Hi. A lot has
been spoken about AI, so keen to know, what percentage of deals are AI led? Do you see a component of AI in majority of the deals? Is
AI integrated in most of the deal conversations that you have? That is first.
And secondly,
on the pricing, are you seeing any pricing pressure as such? Thank you.
Salil Parekh
On pricing,
Nilanjan will come back on that. On AI, first, we do not disclose the percentage of AI within our portfolio. However, AI or Generative
AI is really transformative, and it is something that is changing everything that is going on. For example, we are doing work, which is
related to software development, which is related to new code enhancements, migration, maintenance that covers the spectrum of the work
that we do. And it is also related to other areas, for example, voice, video, text. These are areas where we do work, which is expanding
the type of work we are doing. So, my sense is Generative AI is really going to transform everything that is happening within our portfolio.
And Topaz that we have launched, being the leading platform or set of capabilities for Generative AI, I think will make a huge impact.
Having 80 active projects is a massive step and it is moving with rapid speed.
Nilanjan
Roy
The pricing
environment remains quite stable. We have seen in some places, we are able to get some increases from cola, etc. Some cases isolated again,
you get some discounts, but by and large it is a very stable environment.
Rishi Basu
Thank you.
The next question is from Uma Kannan from The New Indian Express.
Uma Kannan
Good evening,
gentlemen. You said, there are some softeners in verticals like BFSI, hitech. So, will this continue, or will it be better going forward
in H2? And I also want to know, where are the headwinds coming from? And is it really paradoxical times for the IT industry as such?
Salil Parekh
So there, on
the first part, what we look at is, what we see within our portfolio on a daily, weekly, monthly basis. It is, from our perspective, not
something we look at as to when something will stop or not stop. We have within our portfolio, work that we can do on digital transformation,
cloud, Generative AI, which are really growth drivers in the market. When clients or industries are looking at that we are ready with
that, and we have that as one of our growth engines.
On the other
hand, when clients are looking at cost, efficiency, consolidation, we also have deep capability in that, and that is some of these wins
that you have seen, that we have announced, are reflective of that. So that is what will kick in, in the other side, but we do not have
a specific view on when something will change in that.
Rishi Basu
Thank you.
The next question is from Sameer Bakshi from the Financial Express.
Sameer Ranjan
Bakshi
Hello, Sir.
So, in these times, do you see challenges in winning smaller deals, when there is a cut in discretionary spend? And the second one is,
when your peers are focusing on Europe, why are you not able to consolidate the European market? Your revenue has fallen by 2%. Thank
you.
Salil Parekh
In Europe,I
will come to that, on a constant currency basis, we are at a growth of 10%. So, Europe, in fact, you are absolutely right, is an area,
we have a lot of attention and focus on. And in many of those markets, we are expanding quite well.
On the smaller
projects, we do not see a difference. We are comfortable to win larger programs and smaller programs. It is just that there are some,
which are more, not smaller but more discretionary from the perspective of a client, which is where we see some of the volume impact.
On the larger mega deals, actually we are seeing very good traction in the two wins but also a good pipeline of large and mega deals.
Rishi Basu
Thank you.
The next question is from Varun Vyas from Reuters News.
Varun Vyas
Hello. I was
wondering if you could tell me, if the results missed the company's own expectations and when you might see some recovery? And could you
explain how you classify large and mega deals? Like, is there a certain threshold above which a deal is considered that?
Salil Parekh
So, the way
we see this, we find that when we look at things like Generative AI or if you look at the mega deals or the large deals, we see very good
traction and momentum. When we see volumes on discretionary projects, we see some of those slowing down. So, in that sense it is not one
size that fits all, we are seeing really good traction on the former. In terms of classification, it is $50 mn or larger that is classified
within our system as large deal, and $500 mn or larger is a mega deal.
Varun
Vyas
I was wondering,
if you could also tell me what kind of variable pay you are paying.
Salil
Parekh
So, we do
not comment on that externally.
Rishi
Basu
Thanks,
Varun. The next question is from Shraddha Goled from the Mint.
Shraddha
Goled
Hi, good
evening. I wanted to ask about the Generative AI training that you mentioned. About 40,000 employees are being trained. So, what kind
of training are they undergoing, more details on that? And also wanted to know, if any Generative AI apps or tools are being used internally
for any of the operations or functions?
Salil
Parekh
So, on the
training, we are working with clients on both open-source Generative AI platforms and proprietary Generative AI platforms. These span
from different tech companies. Our training internally is on many of these different platforms. Plus, we have built some tools on an open-source
Generative AI platform that we are using internally for areas where we do software development. For example, in our products business,
in some other areas of services, where we are doing new code development, enhancements or migration.
So for all
of those we have built some tools on open-source platforms. So, the training is on those elements of those platforms. We have in fact,
rolled out what we call ‘AI assistance’ for our employees where the employees are focused on delivery work, which is in the
software development area, on the sales work, on training, on knowledge management, on different components of the work. So, for us, really,
we are becoming an AI-first company, driving through the change internally as well as externally.
Shraddha
Goled
Are you
also using for your internal operations?
Salil
Parekh
Yes, absolutely.
So those are the ones which we are using internally as well.
Rishi
Basu
Thanks, Shraddha.
The next question is from Reshab Shaw from The Informist.
Reshab
Shaw
Hi, gentlemen.
We have seen utilization going up by 2 basis points and attrition coming down. What stopped us from reaching the upper end of the margin
guidance?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yes. So,
I think guidance of 20% to 22%, I mean, we ended the year as you know at 21% for the full year and for the quarter. So, at 20.8%, it is
about a 20-basis points reduction. We know, we have levers available, like utilization is definitely, one of them. And the program which
we have put into place has actually got five pillars.
The first is
automation through Generative AI. The second is a much more beneficial hierarchy index. The third is through more critical portfolio of
projects. Fourth is value-based selling, the pricing, and the fifth is a whole indirect cost initiative. So, this is a five-pillar holistic
approach we are taking. It has got about 20 tracks and it is being led by Jayesh.
So, we have
30 leaders leading all these tracks. And definitely the aspiration is to continue to grow our margins in the medium term and long term.
Rishi
Basu
Thank you.
With that, we come to an end of this Q&A session. We thank our friends from media for being here today. Thank you Salil. Thank you
Nilanjan.
Before we
conclude, please note that the archived webcast of this press conference will be available on the Infosys website and on our YouTube channel
later today. We request our friends from media to join us for high tea outside. Thank you once again. Have a lovely evening.

Sandeep
Mahindroo
Hello, everyone,
and welcome to Infosys earnings call for Q1 FY '24. Joining us here on this call is CEO and MD, Mr. Salil
Parekh, CFO, Mr. Nilanjan Roy
and other members of the senior management team. We will start the call with some remarks on the performance
of the company for the quarter
by Salil and Nilanjan, subsequent to which the call will be opened up for questions.
Kindly, note
that anything which we say that refers to our outlook for the future is a forward-looking statement which must
be read in conjunction
with the risk that the company faces. A full statement explanation of these risks is available in our filings
with the SEC, which can
be found on www.sec.gov.
I would now
like to pass it on to Salil.
Salil
Parekh
Thanks Sandeep.
Good evening, and good morning to everyone on the call. Thank you for joining us.
We had a strong
quarter in Q1. Our Q1 growth was solid at 4.2% year-on-year and 1.0% quarter-on-quarter in constant currency.
We had 21% growth in manufacturing,
14% in Life Sciences. Our Europe region grew by 10%. Our operating margin for the quarter was strong at 20.8%.
We generated robust free
cash flow of $699 mn in Q1.
Our large deal
value for Q1 was $2.3 bn, 56% of this was net new. We had one mega deal win in Q1. Our value of deals of
financial services was 50% of
the overall large deal value in Q1. We announced a mega deal of $2 bn value after the close of Q1 and before
our results, before today.
With a strong large deal and mega deal wins, we are building well for the future. Our pipeline of large deals
is strong and we continue
to have megadeals in our pipeline.
We are delighted
that Topaz, our AI and generative AI platform is resonating well with our clients. We are working on 80
generative AI projects for our
clients at this time. The work we are doing encompasses large language models for software development, text,
document, voice and video.
Internally,
we have developed generative AI tools using an open-source model for software development. We are working with
open-source and proprietary
generative AI platforms and modules. We have trained 40,000 employees on generative AI. We see opportunities
for new work and for productivity
improvements through this technology. All of these elements are available within our Topaz set of
capabilities. We see this area of generative
AI and Topaz being really transformative for our clients.
As we look
ahead with the large and mega deal successes and our strength in cost efficiency, automation and
consolidation, we feel confident. In
the short term, we see some clients stopping or slowing down work on transformation programs and discretionary
work. This is especially
so in financial services, in mortgages, asset management, investment banking and payments and in the telecom
industry. We also see some
impact in the hitech industry and in parts of retail.
Even as we
won two mega deals recently and have a strong pipeline of large and mega deals, we will see revenue from some
of these and other large
deals towards the later part of our financial year. Keeping that in mind, we are changing our revenue growth
guidance for this financial
year to growth of 1.0% to 3.5% in constant currency.
As a consequence
of our mega deal wins, overall traction in cost efficiency, automation, a differentiated digital cloud and
generative AI capabilities,
we are well positioned for the medium term and especially towards the end of our financial year and the period
after that.
We have launched
a broader and comprehensive margin expansion program. The program will work across five areas: pyramid
efficiency, automation and generative
AI, improvements in critical portfolios, reducing our indirect costs and communicating and deriving value
across the portfolio.
Our senior
leadership is mobilized on this. We're working on this program with our clients, our employees and partners,
and we're taking steps for
the short, medium and long term, while keeping the overall strategic direction of the company in mind. We have
an ambition to improve
our operating margin in the future periods. Our operating margin guidance for the financial year remains
unchanged at 20% to 22%.
With that,
let me hand it over to Nilanjan.
Nilanjan
Roy
Thanks, Salil.
Good evening, everyone, and thank you for joining the call.
We entered
FY '24 on the backdrop of uncertain macroeconomic environment with clients reassessing the IT spend and
continue to focus on cost and
efficiency programs.
Q1 revenue
growth was 4.2% on a Y-on-Y basis in constant currency. Sequentially, revenue grew by 1% in constant currency
and 1.4% in dollar terms.
Operating margin
for Q1 was 20.8%, 20 basis points lower sequentially. This was primarily due to a 70 basis points of benefit
from cost optimization, including
utilization and automation, which was offset by a balanced 90 basis point impact from employee-related costs,
including higher variable
pay, promotions, etc.
Client metrics
remained strong with the number of $50 mn clients increasing to 79 and $200 mn clients at 15, reflecting our
strong ability to mine top
clients by providing them multiple relevant services.
Headcount at
the end of the quarter stood at 336,000 employees, which is a decline of 2% from the previous quarter. A
substantial portion of attrition
has been backfilled by training and reskilling existing pool of talent and deployment of freshers.
Consequently, our utilization excluding
trainees improved to 81.1%, which has further headroom for growth. We will calibrate the hiring for FY '24
based on available pool of
employees, growth expectations and attrition trends.
Free cash flow
for the quarter was robust at $699 mn and the conversion to net profit for Q1 remained strong at 96.6%, led by
strong collections. DSO
increased by one day sequentially to 63. Consolidated cash and equivalents stood at $4.5 bn at the end of the
quarter. This is before
the payout of final dividend that happened in the first week of July.
EPS grew by
6.6% in dollar terms and 12.4% in rupee terms.
Yield on cash
balance was 6.71% in Q1.
ROE increased
to 32.8% in Q1, a 1.8% increase year-on-year, which is a reflection of our strong cash generation and capital
allocation policy.
Large deal
momentum continued and we signed 16 large deals in Q1; TCV was $2.3 bn with 56% net new. 3 deals reach were in
FS, EURS and communication;
4 in retail; 2 in manufacturing and 1 in Life Sciences vertical. Region wise this split by 11 in America, 4 in
Europe and 1 in ROW.
Coming to vertical
segment performance.
Financial services
vertical witnessed continued softness in areas like mortgage, asset management, investment banking, cards and
payments. Large and super
regional banking clients in US have been resilient during this quarter. Large banking clients are focusing on
vendor consolidation, cost
takeout and self-funding transformation programs. Many financial institutions are looking at outsourcing the
non-core business that includes
taking away existing employees across technology and operations. While delayed decision-making is impacting
the vertical, our recent deal
wins and the strong pipeline will help create momentum and opportunity for future growth.
In retail,
cost efficiency and consolidation continues to remain top priority for our clients. There is intense focus on
leveraging AI to accelerate
digital transformation for enhanced customer and employee experience, predictive analytics and real-time
insights. While decision cycles
are long, large deal pipelines remain healthy in infra, apps and process modernization, cloud and workload
migration.
Communication
sector is witnessing continued impact from budget cuts, delayed decision making for newer spend and slow
ramp-up. Growth challenges for
the clients persist due to increasing opex pressures. Cost optimization and vendor consolidation are top
priority for clients who are
open to innovative solutions and are asking for AI to amplify productivity. OEM clients are showing greater
interest in revenue-generating
services, decreased time to market, increased product quality and improved customer experience. Large deal
pipeline in this vertical remains
very healthy.
Outlook for
the energy, utilities, resources and services vertical continues to be positive, though there slowdown in
decision-making. Energy clients
are coming to us for large-scale transformation programs such as digital capabilities for energy transition
and journey to net zero. Utilities
clients are focused on in-flight transformation programs or those required for regulatory compliance. Service
clients are focused on consolidation
and M&A, cloud cost optimization and legacy transformation. Our investment in industry cloud and solutions
in the energy transition
area had helped us differentiate in these sectors to win multiple deals and build a very strong pipeline.
Manufacturing
clients are focusing on controlling the spend and awarding deals which are focused on differentiation. Despite
the volatile environment,
deal pipeline is strong. Areas like, engineering, IoT, supply chain, cloud, ERP and digital are seeing
increased traction. There is a
need to increase paper migration to cloud, increasing productivity by transforming to smart factories and
transitioning to smart products.
We are seeing opportunities across auto, aerospace and industrial.
We have revised
our revenue growth guidance for FY '24 to 1.0% to 3.5% in constant currency terms. This is due to
lower-than-expected volumes, due to
ramp-down in discretionary spend, coupled with lower mega deal volumes arising from delayed timing and longer
ramp-up times due to regulatory
approvals and transition.
Margin guidance
remained at 20% to 22% for FY '24. We continue to aspire for higher margins over the medium term with the
razor-sharp focus on cost optimization
and efficiency improvements. As Salil mentioned, we have launched a new margin maximization program across the
five pillars comprising
over 20 tracks.
With that, we can
open up the call for questions.
Moderator
Thank you very
much. We will now begin the question-and-answer-session. The first question is from the line of Kawaljeet
Saluja from Kotak. Please go
ahead.
Kawaljeet
Saluja
Yeah, hi. Thank
you. You know, my first question is the fact that in the prepared remarks, both Nilanjan and Salil, both of
you mentioned that the guidance
cut is partly due to a delay in volumes or the delay in timing of mega deals. But as far as I remember, your
guidance at the lower end
was not predicated on mega deal closures, which is 4%, and 7% was predicated on mega deal closures and volumes
flowing through.
So I'm just
trying to understand, if you can just delayer your guidance, you know basically just highlight what percentage
of the cut is attributable
to your perception of change in view in the external environment and what percentage is really the delayed
signing of mega deals here?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yes. So Kawal
as you know, there was a guidance of 4% to 7%. Of course, the higher end of the guidance had a larger amount
of the mega deals. And the
4%, of course, was predicated a lot on the base volumes, which by default would be in quarter 1, quarter 2.
And this is where we have
seen discretionary spend cuts in quarter 1 in some clients, and of course, in Q2 as well, some of that
softness continues.
As you know,
if you have to meet the year, quarter 1 and quarter 2 are very critical for that really to happen. So
fundamentally, that is the base
reason. As we exit the year, of course, at the higher end, there was the impact of mega deals and our guidance
on both ends have come
down. And one more reason is that the top-end has come down is also largely also due to the delay in mega
deals signing and the transition
time. But the pipeline, as Salil said is very healthy. We got two deals under the belt, and we are as
confident as we exit the year.
Kawaljeet
Saluja
But Nilanjan,
just to try to know, when you basically spoke in the last quarter, you did highlight that 1Q would be weaker
and we expect pickup in 2Q,
whereas right now you are saying that 1Q and 2Q are strong quarters. I'm just trying to understand the
disconnect in commentary.
The second
part to the question Nilanjan is that, two consecutive quarters, two consecutive misses. I guess last time
around as well, there were
a lot of pushback saying that the environment has deteriorated and how you built any extra cushion into your
guidance, etc. So what are
your learnings in the last two quarters? And what are the steps you have taken to ensure that the forecasting
process is a little bit
more robust than what the guidance cut in the last two quarters indicate?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yeah. So Kawal
see, when we give the guidance, we see the outlook at that point of time. We have a semblance of what is a
pipe. We assume some convertibility.
There is an existing book of business. But like I just said, in Q1, from a sequential basis, we are lower than
where we thought we would
end up to be, right?
Because like
I said, Q1 and Q2 was critical for us to meet that guidance. And we have seen these discretionary cuts in
clients in some sectors which
we have just called out. And that is, what I would say, the base business. And on the other side, there is the
mega deal impact. We have
got a good pipeline and some of these deals which was supposed to kick-in earlier, are getting delayed later
into the year as we speak.
Kawaljeet
Saluja
Okay, that
is clear. Just a final comment on how the pipeline after the conversion of the $2 bn mega deal as such? Can
you just comment on the pipeline?
That will be useful.
Salil
Parekh
So Kawal, this
is Salil. The pipeline, we still have a good pipeline of both large deals. We have some mega deals in the
pipeline as well. We see a lot
of the work that we are doing on cost, on efficiency, automation, in consolidation those are tracking well
with clients. There are some
transformation programs which are funded from within the cost efficiency those are also something that we are
tracking through. So we
do see with the two mega deals signed, a good pipeline today of large deals and we have mega deals in the
pipeline as well.
Kawaljeet
Saluja
Right. And
just one thing, is the upper end of the guidance band in any way predicated on future mega deal closures, or
it's based on the deals closed
up to now?
Salil
Parekh
So here, the
way we have built this guidance, or our view of the 3.5% is based on what we have closed today in large and
mega deals, and then we have
a way of estimating based on what we see into the future as an aggregate, not as a one-off, or not as a binary
discussion, but in aggregate
with what we see as the probabilities and also the probability of when that work will transition and the
revenues are . So those are what
we see in the pipeline and are baked into it.
Kawaljeet
Saluja
Thank you.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Yogesh Aggarwal from HSBC. Please go ahead.
Yogesh
Aggarwal
Yeah, hi. Thanks
for letting me come. Salil, just a couple of questions. Firstly, on banking, your banking weakness has been
there for a few quarters and
now most other companies are showing weakness as well. Whereas if you look at the clients itself, most of
their financial results, the
tech commentaries and the data is not that weak. So where is the disconnect you think? Are they spending more
with captives or smaller
subcontractors? Where is this market share loss coming from?
Salil
Parekh
Yogesh, I think,
what we see in our financial services or banking part of financial services, there are different clients of
ours that have different patterns
in terms of their own pressures within their business. Some of our clients have had good results, but there
are some which have had more
difficult economic situations.
Also with a
mix from geography between Europe, Asia Pacific, and US, when you break it down into specific sub-industry
areas, when you look at asset
management, when you look at investment banking, when you look at payments or mortgages, those are the ones
where we are seeing the impact.
Our sense is,
generally our clients are not spending on those projects. It is not that they are spending somewhere else.
Typically, they are choosing
not to spend at this time. And as the environment changes, we will see how that pattern changes.
Yogesh
Aggarwal
Okay, thanks.
And just a quick follow-up. The revised guidance now, at the lower end, I wanted to ask, you have already won
few mega deals and the lower
end of the guidance suggests almost negative or flattish growth for the next three quarters, which would also
mean that for six quarters,
seven quarters now, revenues would be flat. So what are the assumptions for the lower end of the guidance I
wanted to know?
Salil
Parekh
See, here as
Nilanjan was sharing about the guidance, the approach is really focused on what we have seen in terms of
volumes, discretionary projects
in Q1 and an overlay then of the actual mega deals and large deals we have already won, and the estimate that
we are looking at.
Some of those
deals have start dates have moved out, whereas the volume and discretionary project slowing is still in
quarter. So our view is based
on how that plays out between those trends, we saw the 1% in terms of the lower end of the guidance when you
combine that and then, of
course, the high end we talked about earlier.
Yogesh
Aggarwal
Great. Thanks,
Salil. Thank you.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Ankur Rudra from J.P. Morgan. Please go ahead.
Ankur Rudra
Thank you.
Salil, thank you for the updated guidance. I just wanted to get a sense of, obviously, the ask rate for the
next three quarters has now
moderated from, maybe it could have been 2% to 4%. With the same old guidance, it's 0% to 1.5% as discussed.
Just curious about the discretionary
cuts and the delays you referenced in your guidance change description. Has this happened more towards the
latter half of the quarter?
Has there been a linear change over the course of the quarter?
Salil
Parekh
So there, Ankur,
the way we have seen it is, there will be no difference in the pattern at the beginning or the end of the
quarter. It is more focused
on the industry that we referenced in our opening remarks between Nilanjan and me. We have seen in different
places the discretionary
work and some transformation work, where it has either slowed or stopped based on different industries.
Ankur Rudra
Okay. And also,
I just want to get a sense of maybe asking this in a slightly different way. Obviously, the guidance change is
quite drastic. Is this
just the change in environment of spending over the course of the last three months? Or is this also a
difference in the way you measure
the likelihood of success of when the deals ramp-up, or the win rate of future deals? Just curious about that
and if this guidance is
more conservative anyway versus the last time you said it?
Salil
Parekh
So there, it
is a combination, as you pointed out, of the environment in terms of the discretionary or transformational
projects in the quarter. And
then some of the mega deals and large deals, we saw a delay in decision-making in closing and also delay or
changes in the start time
or ramp-up of the profile of that deal. We have actually not seen any change in the win rate. And in fact,
internally, we had a good win
rate in Q1, and we continue to see good traction, whether it is consolidation, cost efficiency on the win rate
side.
Ankur Rudra
Appreciate
that. Just one clarification, if you could. I know this $2 bn framework agreement that you referenced is the
second large deal. Could
you clarify if this is fully contracted? And is this type of deal historically also been disclosed in your
TCV’s over the last few
quarters or years?
Salil
Parekh
This deal,
while we have first made the announcement, and I'm sure you have seen, we have completed the contract signing
of the deal, that is when
the deal was announced. These types of deals were also included in the past within our large deal mix. Of
course, in the past, there was
no requirement of disclosing the specific values.
Ankur Rudra
Okay. Understood.
Last question if I can. On margins, they were obviously flattish this time, it seemed like you have done well
given what the growth has
been. The five-point margin maximization plan you have highlighted, is this you playing offense or defense on
margins? In other words,
is Infosys confident of potentially expanding margins in F '24? Or is it more for margin defense because
growth outlook does not look
very strong, at least at the lower end of guide?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yes. So like
we said, I mean, this is a two-year program we have started. It is quite comprehensive. It is just not looking
at cost, it is looking
at portfolio. And this is now being led personally by Jayesh with 20 tracks, 30 leaders. Of course, our
aspiration continues to be that
we will aspire for higher margins than where we are today. So from that perspective, it is offensive -- on
offense, I would say offensive,
but on offense, this thing to increase our margins. That is the intent.
Ankur Rudra
Appreciate
it, thank you, and best of luck.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Apurva Prasad from HDFC Securities. Please go ahead.
Apurva
Prasad
Yes, thanks
for taking my question. Salil, just wanted a broad further on the guidance. In the last quarter, you had
referred to achieving top-end
basis the strength of pipeline and factors that are binary. So are those binary factors still in the pipeline
or converted but transition
is taking longer? So what I am trying to get at is how should we really reconcile the change in revenue guide
in the last three months
between delay and volume cuts, which is as large as $600 mn?
Salil
Parekh
So there, we
have already announced two mega deals, which is a positive. We have large and mega deals in the pipeline. The
way we have seen it is really
the two points you mentioned, which is the volume discretionary work in quarter and the delay in the start of
the realization, transition
of some of the large and mega deals, those are what have translated to the change in the guidance.
Apurva
Prasad
Any way that
you could split those factors, how much of an impact would that have been?
Salil
Parekh
We will not
be in a position to quantify that further between those two, unfortunately.
Apurva
Prasad
So okay. And
just how would you characterize the business environment and your client conversations at the end of the
quarter as compared to how it
was at the beginning of the quarter?
Salil
Parekh
So there, it
is really, the way we see it is, our pipeline for large and mega deals is in excellent shape as we closed the
quarter. We see good traction
for mega deals and our large deals. The focus is much more when you are talking to clients on efficiency or
cost or consolidation. We
have a real traction with them. We see less discussions on digital transformation.
And then in
general, across the client base for those industries that I referenced in the opening remark, we see where
there are discretionary programs
where the client feels that they can slow them or pause them for some time, we see that action. So those are
the two sort of actions we
are seeing. Very good traction, in fact, on the large and mega deals.
Moderator
Apurva, does
that answer your question?
Apurva
Prasad
Yes, thanks.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Kumar Rakesh from BNP Paribas Please go ahead.
Kumar
Rakesh
Hi, good evening.
Thank you for taking my question. My first question was more of a clarification. So can you just confirm the
process of deciding the revenue
growth guidance? Is it the same, which was last fiscal year versus this year? Or have you changed some of the
assumptions for the processes
that you follow?
Salil
Parekh
Hi, Rakesh.
This is Salil. So we have following the same approach that we followed over the last several years as we build
our outlook or our guidance
that we share with the market.
Kumar
Rakesh
Great. Got
it. Thanks. My second question was on the margin side. So this quarter, we had a slight decline on the margin
sequentially. Now wage hike
is yet to be given out. So how confident are you on holding on to the current margin or the margins which we
had last year? And the cost
saving program also you are going to start running? Or there would be more of headwinds than tailwinds on the
margin side?
Nilanjan
Roy
As you saw
my margin walk, we had a 70 basis points benefit from utilization, cost optimization. So we are seeing the
tailwinds of that. And the
big part of that, we actually put back into employee-related compensation, which is variable pay, that is a
big part - promotion. So it
is not that we are losing that to the market. That is a conscious decision for us to plow it back towards
employees.
So as we look
ahead, we are actively considering compensation hikes, we announced this as well at press conference earlier.
And the new program that
kicks-in, we think in optimization will give us the necessary tailwinds to be well within the margin guidance
band.
Kumar
Rakesh
Thanks for
that. My last question was around the volume commentary which you gave. So last quarter in April when we had
the discussion. You had talked
about that volume through the quarter, you were seeing signs of improvement. However, in this quarter, you
have seen performing much below
your expectation. So which are specific pockets you are seeing the weakness specifically? Is it more client
specific or the entire industry
working a much sharper weakness?
Nilanjan
Roy
It is a
client-specific,
like this time iIn fact, we saw slightly more resilience in the US-based clients. Europe turned out to be
slightly weaker. So it is very
client specific actually across. I mean, it is sort of a leaking bucket in a number of clients. There is no
large drop-off. And this is
largely with the discretionary part. So it is some programs which can be pulled back and are discretionary in
the nature, those are the
ones we are seeing.
Kumar
Rakesh
Thanks for
that.

Thank you.
The next question is from the line of James Friedman from Susquehanna. Please go ahead.
James Friedman
Hi, thank you.
Salil, I think many investors are wondering, so I appreciate your thoughts. Does it seem to you that the soft
demand was primarily due
to macro factors, which are presumably temporary? Or is it potentially something more profound like perhaps
related to the relevance of
services or mindshare? So is this just macro it is going to go away, or is it a question of services in
itself?
Salil
Parekh
So this is
Salil. Thanks for the question. The way we see it today, we see this demand environment, especially on
discretionary, that we have been
discussing so far, as a function of the macro environment. We can see, for example, if you look at different
industries, manufacturing
growing at 21%, other industry is doing well, whereas financial service is weaker. So our service portfolio,
we believe, works well.
We have already
transformed the company, moved it predominantly into a digital business. We are very strong on cloud with our
cobalt offering. And now
with generative AI and broadly with AI, we have launched our Topaz offering.
My sense is
that those are resonating well with clients. And the places where we see the constraints have been more with
the macro. Even some of the
large and mega deals we are winning, we are winning against a fairly intense competition where we are
demonstrating our capabilities,
whether it is on transformation or on cost or efficiency or consolidation.
James Friedman
Okay, thank
you for that context, Salil. I will drop back in the queue.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Abhishek Bhandari from Nomura. Please go ahead.
Abhishek
Bhandari
Yeah. Thank
you. I have two questions. First of all, Salil, congrats to you for this $2 bn mega deal. And if you could
share some more details around
this project given that it is probably the largest you announced anywhere globally. Is it pure services deal?
Or there is an element of
any hardware purchase along with it? And do you think this will get into revenue translation more in the
second half of this year?
Salil
Parekh
So thanks for
the question. On this specific deal, what we have shared in the public domain is as per the filing with the
stock exchange. It really
focuses on work that we are doing related to AI and automation-led development, modernization and maintenance
services. We do not have
anything more to add to that comment.
Abhishek
Bhandari
Sure. And
do you think this goes into revenue translation in second half?
Salil
Parekh
Yes. So again,
there, we do not have anything more on the specific deal. It is more about the general comments that we have
talked about the large and
mega deals. We do see, in general, across our large and mega deals, the revenue coming through in terms of the
transitions and revenue
realization more towards the later part of the year.
Abhishek
Bhandari
Got it. Thank
you Salil for that. Nilanjan, my final and second question is to you. So you commented that the salary hikes
are under active consideration.
So do you think this year, the hike cycle could differ compared to a usual cycle? And it could be more linked
to when the growth comes
back, we probably will be in a better position to give the hikes for employees?
Nilanjan
Roy
So like I said,
we are considering everything. Nothing to add more than that really in terms of timing or anything like that.
Abhishek
Bhandari
Okay, got it.
Thank you and all the best.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Moshe Katri from Wedbush Securities. Please go ahead.
Moshe Katri
So far, Europe
has really been holding up well, much better than the US. Can you talk a bit about what you are seeing in
Europe, maybe areas where you
are seeing some strength in terms of verticals? I am assuming the UK is a big part of it. And if that trend
continues based on what you
are seeing, i.e. is Europe still holding in there or is it also slowing down? That is my first question,
thanks.
Salil
Parekh
So thanks to
your question. This is Salil. We saw good traction, and we have seen that over the last several quarters in
Europe, as you pointed out.
We have seen that, especially in the manufacturing segment. We have had good traction in multiple geographies
in Europe. So we have a
good traction in the Nordics. We also announced a strategic win in the Nordics, which was public a few weeks
ago. We have good traction
in Germany, as you referenced, a good traction in the UK. So we have had good traction so far.
Now the macro
environment, we feel, as Nilanjan also pointed earlier, is definitely something that is affecting overall in
Europe. So we are seeing
within the segments we referenced, for example, Financial Services and the sub-segments there in telco, in
some parts of retail, those
being impacted in Europe as well, and we will see how that plays out into the future.
Moshe Katri
Okay. And my
follow-up is about an article that came out this week in the local media in India, suggesting that there is an
uptick in demand for lateral
hires in the industry. And these hires will probably start happening in the month of October and on. Does that
make sense to you versus
what you are seeing out there in terms of demand and pipeline and the ramp up, that is kind of, as you said,
it is going slower than expected?
Salil
Parekh
So for that,
my sense is, again, some of the comments you might have heard earlier from Nilanjan, our utilization has gone
up. Our total headcount
number is reduced, and we believe, we have some headroom for the utilization to go up further. So that would
be the context in which we
are operating.
Moshe Katri
Understood.
Thanks for the color.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Mukul Garg from Motilal Oswal Financial Services. Please go ahead.
Mukul Garg
Yes. Hi, thanks.
Salil, just wanted to kind of probe a bit further on the change in the guidance, and I'm just focusing on the
lower end of your previous
guidance. Where it does not look like the miss in Q1 from what you are kind of thinking about last quarter was
that meaningful for the
guidance at the lower end to come down so drastically.
So is it fair
to assume that, the incremental slowdown which you have witnessed is more front ended, i.e. in Q2? Or was
there an expectation of a meaningful
pickup-in the business in the second half, which is now no longer there?
Salil
Parekh
So on the
guidance,
again, some of the comments that Nilanjan shared earlier, we saw in Q1, the volume and discretionary projects
slowing. And based on that,
plus the delay in some of the large or mega deals are starting up in terms of revenue, we felt that has given
us the view of the lower
end of the guidance.
What we see
really the function of the way, the volume in the discretionary project evolves. The macro environment, as we
look out, is changing as
we see things, which are from US to Europe, to Asia, keeping those factors in mind is how we build that lower
end of the guidance.
Mukul Garg
Sure. And
similarly,
on similar track, is there something, we need to kind of see, visualize in terms of sanctity of large deal
TCV, which we disclosed. The
commentary on pipeline and large deal wins continues to remain very robust. But there is a fair bit of pain,
which you are kind of talking
about from a discretionary side, which would be coming out of the large deal number.
So can you
share the impact on overall TCV? Or is that something, which you would kind of start reassessing simply
because it is giving a misleading
picture, when you look at only the large deals wins?
Salil
Parekh
So there are
some distinctions, what we are seeing in the large deals, mega deals, wins in the pipeline and what is more
recent in the past quarters
is more on cost or efficiency or consolidation. And so that work is continuing.
What we referenced
on the slowdown is more on discretionary projects, which are projects or transformation projects, which are
from before, which could have
been paused or slowed down by the client, and specifically in the industries, where we referenced the impact.
Those are the ones, we are
seeing. So they are not, in a sense, correlated with the large deals that we are looking at today.
Mukul Garg
Sure. And if
I may just ask one clarification. You know, is there any impact in terms of your growth guidance from any
client-specific issue, specifically,
as Nilanjan kind of highlighted in Europe, in terms of client in-sourcing or kind of slowing down business to
you, in any vertical?
Salil
Parekh
So there, what
Nilanjan was referencing to is not that it is client specific, as you know, in one or two clients. It was more
in terms of clients within
that industry vertical and more now shifting, what we had in the US to the European market. So it is not that
we have specific one or
two clients, where we have seen this impact showing up from there.
Mukul Garg
Sure. I think
that is helpful. Thanks for taking my questions. I will get back in the queue.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Surendra Goel from Citigroup. Please go ahead.
Surendra
Goyal
Yeah. Good
evening. So, I know that you do not share this data point, but could you give us a directional sense of how
ACV, annualized contract value
trends would have moved or would compare Y-o-Y, given the changing nature of the things towards the large and
mega cost takeout deals?
Salil
Parekh
Thanks for
the questions, Surendra. We are not in a position to share that information.
Surendra
Goyal
Okay. And on
this recently announced mega deal in terms of renewal versus new?
Salil
Parekh
The one that was announced after
the quarter, before the results?
Surendra Goyal
Yes.
Salil
Parekh
Okay. So again,
we are not announcing the net new in a specific deal. What I mentioned earlier was the type of work, and that
is what, we can say, in
addition to what we filed with the stock exchange.
Surendra
Goyal
Sure. Thanks,
Salil.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Prashant Kothari from Pictet. Please go ahead.
Prashant
Kothari
Yeah. A couple
of questions. One is, when you are looking at the revenue growth guidance this year, it seems we will be
growing maybe worse than the
peer group that we track, even in terms of the deciding on management compensation, how do we think about
that? What are the things that
we need to do in order to regain the kind of competitiveness in the market, so we can continue to outgrow out
there? Or do you think,
it is all down to discretionary demand being weak and therefore, there is nothing much that we can do, and we
just need to wait for the
cycle to come back? That is the first question.
Salil
Parekh
So there, we
have a view with our portfolio. There is a portfolio of services that works well with our clients. We
absolutely have the intensity in
the client environment with a large and mega deal wins to be back into the growth mode that we have been in
for the last several years.
We also have
a high base for comps. Q1 of last year was a 21% growth year-on-year, in the previous year, whereas the
environment of other peers were
not there. So all of those factors coming into play, we are very much of the view that, we have what we need,
and we are continuing to
go into new areas, like, generative AI or continued investments in cloud to build out, what we want, what our
clients are looking for,
to continue with the growth situation.
Prashant
Kothari
Okay. Thank
you. So if it is kind of more about the external environment then, what would be a good kind of a leading
indicator that you would use
may be internally to figure out that, this weak discretionary demand phase is kind of coming to an end?
Salil
Parekh
So internally,
we have several elements, that we look at. These are not typically data we share externally. But in terms of
the overall translation of
that is what we translate into the guidance there.
Prashant
Kothari
All right.
Yeah, which is presenting a bit of a weak picture as of now. All right. Okay. Thank you very much.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Bryan Bergin from TD Cowen. Please go ahead.
Bryan
Bergin
Hi, good evening.
Thank you. I wanted to ask on the margin expansion program. So I understand that this is a two-year
initiative. Can you give us a sense
of materiality to just how are you thinking about the potential cost savings or an approximate margin
expansion potential that you expect
to achieve from these pillars?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yes. So we
cannot really quantify it. These are five critical tracks, pricing and a more holistic sort of value-based
selling approach. That is a
big one. We know from a pyramid perspective, we have a lot of scope as well. We understand the generative AI
and our ongoing automation
projects, which we have. That is a continuously and actually with generative AI, we think, we can up the
productivity from baseline even
more.
Some of our
portfolios in our mix, how do we improve margins, – a dedicated head team looking at these accounts. And
finally, the indirect cost
side and how do we keep a cap on that, looking at more efficient buying, procurement, savings, etc.
So it is a
quite a holistic approach, like I said, across 20 tracks. And these are being kicked-off. We cannot quantify
the number at this stage.
But like we said, our aspiration continues to be to improve our margin in the medium term.
Bryan
Bergin
Okay. And then
my follow-up, I understand you have got a lot of questions here on the fiscal '24 growth outlook. Just trying
to clarify maybe here and
maybe tie all these questions together. Is it right to say that at the low end of your '24 growth guidance,
that you are assuming a worsening
of volume reductions and a worsening of decision-making pace for the balance of the year? And then at the
upper end, that the decision-making
improves? Just trying to really get to the point of are you assuming more of the same in the improvement or
further deterioration, within
this range?
Salil
Parekh
There, the
way we have constructed this guidance, we see that, there is a change or a difference in the environment, in
the decision-making. We have
seen some of the impact in some of the industries that we shared earlier. And we will see how that volume,
discretionary work translates
itself over time. So we baked in some range of possibilities into that. We wanted to see how those
possibilities play out.
Bryan
Bergin
Thank you.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Nitin Padmanabhan from Investec. Please go ahead.
Nitin
Padmanabhan
Yeah. Hi, good
evening. Thanks for the opportunity. So Nilanjan, the employee headcount is down 3% over the last two
quarters, but the absolute employee
cost is up 2%. So what explains that dynamic?
Nilanjan
Roy
Yeah. So like
I said, this time, we have about 90 bps of impact, we do not see the entire thing in employee cost because
even third-party costs have
come down. But if you see about 90 basis points, actually more than 120 basis points and then 90 basis points
is actually in employee
costs, variable pay is a big one, which we have upped consciously, in this quarter, a little bit of promotion,
then there are other balancing
items.
Nitin
Padmanabhan
Yeah. So, just
a clarification there. So in the context of the deteriorating environment and attrition sort of falling, the
assumption was that employee
cost would be something relatively easier to manage. And obviously, because the performance, company-wide
performance itself is lower,
the variable also should be lower. So what is driving the dynamic on higher variable pay and the compensation?
Nilanjan
Roy
So we look
at this holistically. And we do not look at just one quarter and decide these decisions. We are looking at the
overall environment and
attrition, etc, and that is a decision we collectively take. It is just not on a quarter-to-quarter basis.
We have enough
headroom in our utilization to grow volumes. And therefore, the attrition, which we see is not entirely
replaced by lateral hiring. A
part of that happens through lateral hiring, and we continue to re-skill and move up our fresher bench and
rotate people through projects.
So that benefit, we continue to get.
And like I
said, the 70 bps benefit, which we are seeing is coming partly because of improved utilization.
Nitin
Padmanabhan
Sure. And lastly,
the $2.1 bn deal that we announced, in which vertical is that? If you could clarify that would be helpful?
Nilanjan
Roy
No, we do not
mention that on what vertical it is.
Nitin
Padmanabhan
Okay, sir.
Thank you so much all the very best.
Nilanjan
Roy
Thank you.
Moderator
Thank you.
The next question is from the line of Vibhor Singhal from Nuvama Equities. Please go ahead.
Vibhor
Singhal
Yeah, hi. Good
evening. Thanks for taking my question. So, Salil, two questions from my side. One on the harping on the
guidance part again. I mean,
for long, I think, the guidance that Infosys gives is kind of seen a benchmark for the industry and a lead
across for the entire sector
as well. And the sharp cut that we had at this time. So just wanted to understand, the putting on hold of
discretionary spend and other
issues that you mentioned that caused us to lower the guidance, do you see that as a very Infosys specific
thing, or do you see it more
of an industry across the board that maybe other companies are not seeing it right now, they might be
following suit in the next few quarters.
Or is it something in the nature of our portfolio because of which you probably feel that it was cyclical?
I mean, in
the last three months, because the other companies that have reported, there might not have been such number
difference in the guidances.
But the kind of $600 mn shock that we have seen, we have not seen that kind of a change in commentary over the
past three months by any
other player per se. So would you like to basically give some colour on how readable is this environment, that
has caused this deterioration
to us and not to the other companies in the sector or the industry?
Salil
Parekh
So there, my
sense is, if you look at our Q1 number, we have 1% quarter-on-quarter growth, which from what I have seen
across the industry is, maybe
one of the strongest quarter-on-quarter growth. We have a clear view of what we see as we have been discussing
on large and mega deals,
giving us a strong growth orientation later in the year with some discretionary work, which is slowing in Q1.
So I do not
have a sense for the other players. That is how we see it. And if I look at Q1, we have a good outcome in
terms of a solid quarter and
looking at the industry, maybe higher growth Q-on-Q than many others.
Vibhor
Singhal
Got it. And
in terms of conversations with the clients, just a follow-up on that, in terms of the conversations with the
clients, I think you mentioned
it before on the call as well. What is the overall general conversation like, when they put this discretionary
part of the deals on hold?
I mean, do they want to do it, given the weak macro at this point of time? Is there any rethinking on the part
of whether they need this
kind of spend at all? Are those original decisions being questioned itself to begin with? What exactly is the
nature of the conversation
with the clients, which are putting these spends on hold?
Salil
Parekh
So here, what
we have seen is, again, in the industries, we referenced before, whether it is financial services or telco or
hi-tech, the clients or
the industries are going through a difficult environment themselves in the macro. They are looking for help or
support from their partners
like us, where they put some projects, which they perceive to be not immediately relevant for them on a pause
or slowing. Those are the
discretionary works that slow down. And we will see as the environment changes, what happens there.
Vibhor
Singhal
Got it. Great.
Thanks for taking my question. And wish you all the best for the rest of the year.
Moderator
Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, that would be our last question for today. I now hand the conference back to the
management for their closing remarks.
Thank you, and over to you.
Salil
Parekh
Thanks. This
is Salil. I just want to close out. Thank you, everyone, for joining us. In summary, for us, really, we have
had a solid Q1, very good
Q-on-Q growth, solid margins, excellent large deals and mega deal wins. This sets us up very nicely, with some
of the delays and the volume
slowing more for the later part of the year. We have also got incredible traction in generative AI with 80
projects and the Topaz work
resonating with clients.
We now put
in place a stronger program on margin expansion, which is in play. Putting all of that together, we see this
is a year, where we will
make that difference translating to mega deals and large deals, and as we come towards the later part of the
year, showing the realization
of all of those.
So thanks again,
everyone, for joining in, and look forward to catching up at the next quarterly call.

Thank you
very much, members of the management. Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Infosys, that concludes this

Directors and has been
approved by them for the issuance. The Statement has been compiled from the related audited interim condensed
consolidated financial
statements for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This responsibility includes the preparation and presentation
of these consolidated
financial results that give a true and fair view of the consolidated net profit and consolidated other
comprehensive income and other
financial information of the Group in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the
Ind AS 34, prescribed
under Section 133 of the Act, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India
and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. The respective Boards of Directors of the
Companies included in the
Group are responsible for maintenance of the adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the
Act for safeguarding
the assets of the Group and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and
application of appropriate accounting
policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and
maintenance of adequate
internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the

Auditor’s
Responsibilities for Audit of the Consolidated Financial Results
Our
objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial results as a whole are free
from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable
assurance is a high level
of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material
misstatement when it
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial
results.
As
part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism
throughout the audit.
We also:
• |
|
Identify
and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial results, whether
due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. |
• |
|
Obtain
an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing

the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Board of Directors in terms

Conclude
on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors’ use of the going concern basis of
accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists
related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the
consolidated financial results or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s
report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as
a going concern. |

within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial results. We are responsible
for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of financial information of such

• |
|
Materiality
is the magnitude of misstatements in the consolidated financial results that, individually
or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable
user of the consolidated financial results may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality
and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the
results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the
consolidated financial results. |
• |
|
We
communicate with those charged with governance of the Company and such other entities included
in the consolidated financial results of which we are the independent auditors regarding,
among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings
including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. |
• |
|
We
also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships
and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
related safeguards. |

INDEPENDENT
AUDITOR’S REPORT ON AUDIT OF THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL RESULTS
TO
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF INFOSYS LIMITED
Opinion
We
have audited the accompanying Statement of Standalone Financial Results of INFOSYS LIMITED (the
“Company”), for the
quarter ended June 30, 2023, (the “Statement”), being submitted by the Company pursuant to the
requirements of Regulation
33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the “Listing
Regulations”).
In
our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Statement:
a.
|
|
is
presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations;
and
|
b.
|
|
gives
a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles laid down
in the Indian Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“Ind
AS 34”) prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”)
read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted
in India of the net profit and total comprehensive income, and other financial information
of the Company for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
|
Basis
for Opinion
We conducted our audit
of the Statement in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (“SA”s) specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those
Standards are further described
in Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results section of our report. We
are independent of the
Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India
(“ICAI”) together
with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone Financial Resultsfor the quarter
ended June 30, 2023 under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities
in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence
obtained by us is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Management’s
Responsibilities for the Standalone Financial Results
This
Statement, which includes the Standalone financial results is the responsibility of the Company’s Board of
Directors, and has been
approved by them for the issuance. The Statement has been compiled from the related audited interim condensed
standalone financial statements
for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This responsibility includes the preparation and presentation of the
standalone financial results
for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that give a true and fair view of the net profit and other comprehensive
income and other financial
information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Ind AS 34, prescribed under
Section 133 of the
Act, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in
compliance with Regulation
33 of the Listing Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in
accordance with the provisions
of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other
irregularities; selection and
application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
and the design, implementation
and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy
and completeness of
the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial results that give
a true and fair view
and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In
preparing the Standalone Financial Results, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the
Company’s ability, to continue
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis
of accounting unless
the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.
The
Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Company.
Auditor’s
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results
Our
objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Financial Results as a whole are free
from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable
assurance is a high level
of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material
misstatement when it
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this Standalone Financial Results.
As
part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism
throughout the audit.
We also:
•
|
|
Identify
and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Results, whether
due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
|
•
|
|
Obtain
an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of such controls.
|
•
|
|
Evaluate
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
made by the Board of Directors.
|
•
|
|
Evaluate
the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Board of Directors in terms
of the requirements specified under Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations.
|
•
|
|
Conclude
on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors’ use of the going concern basis of
accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists
related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the
Statement or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions
are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
|
•
|
|
Evaluate
the overall presentation, structure and content of the Standalone Financial Results, including
the disclosures, and whether the Standalone Financial Results represent the underlying transactions
and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
|
•
|
|
Obtain
sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the Standalone Financial Results of the Company
to express an opinion on the Standalone Financial Results.
|
Materiality
is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial Results that, individually or in aggregate, makes it
probable that the
economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone Financial Results may be influenced. We
consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of
our work; and (ii) to
evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Standalone Financial Results.
We
communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the
audit and significant
audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We
also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence,
and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our
independence, and where
applicable, related safeguards.

Notes on segment information
Business segments
Based on the "management
approach" as required
by Ind-AS 108 - Operating Segments, the Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates the Group's performance and
allocates resources based
on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly, information has been presented
along these business
segments. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to
record revenue and
expenditure in individual segments.
Segmental capital employed
Assets and liabilities used in the
Group's business
are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The
Management believes that
it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a
meaningful segregation
of the available data is onerous.

Exhibit 99.7
IFRS USD Earning Release
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF INFOSYS
LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Interim Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying interim condensed
consolidated financial statements of INFOSYS LIMITED (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the Company and its subsidiaries
together referred to as the “Group”), which comprise the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as at June 30, 2023, the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended on that date, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information (hereinafter referred to as the “interim condensed consolidated financial statements”).
In our opinion and to the best of our information
and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid interim condensed consolidated financial statements give a true and fair
view in conformity with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”) as issued
by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group as at June 30,
2023, and their consolidated profit, their consolidated total comprehensive income, their consolidated changes in equity and their consolidated
cash flows for the three months ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the interim condensed
consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (“SA”s) issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India (“ICAI”). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities
for the Audit of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance
with the Code of Ethics issued by the ICAI, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code of Ethics.
We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the interim
condensed consolidated financial statements.
Responsibilities of Management and Those
Charged with Governance for the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible
for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view of the
consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance, consolidated total comprehensive income, consolidated changes in
equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group in accordance with IAS 34 as issued by the IASB. The respective Boards of Directors of
the companies included in the Group are responsible for maintenance of the adequate accounting records for safeguarding assets of the
Group and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies;
making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation
and presentation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements by the Directors of the Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements, the respective Boards of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for assessing the ability
of the respective entities to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless the respective Boards of Directors either intend to liquidate their respective entities or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Boards of Directors of the companies
included in the Group are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud
or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is
not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence
the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
| · | Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the interim condensed consolidated financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that
is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud
is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control. |
| · | Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on effectiveness of such controls. |
| · | Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management. |
| · | Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant
doubt on the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to
draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements or,
if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of
our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. |
| · | Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the interim condensed consolidated financial
statements, including the disclosures, and whether the interim condensed consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions
and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
| · | Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities within
the Group to express an opinion on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision
and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements
of which we are the independent auditors. |
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in
the interim condensed consolidated financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions
of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to
evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance
of the Company and such other entities included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent
auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any significant
deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with
a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships
and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
Accounting Policy
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method,
whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future
operating cash receipts or payments and items of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows
from operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. The Group considers all highly liquid investments that
are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

Overview and Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements
1. Overview
1.1 Company overview
Infosys Limited ('the Company' or Infosys) provides
consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation digital services, to enable clients to execute strategies for their digital transformation.
Infosys strategic objective is to build a sustainable organization that remains relevant to the agenda of clients, while creating growth
opportunities for employees and generating profitable returns for investors. Infosys strategy is to be a navigator for our clients as
they ideate, plan and execute on their journey to a digital future.
Infosys together with its subsidiaries and controlled
trusts is herein after referred to as the "Group".
The company is a public limited company incorporated
and domiciled in India and has its registered office at Electronics city, Hosur Road, Bengaluru 560100, Karnataka, India. The company
has its primary listings on the BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The company’s American Depositary Shares
(ADS) representing equity shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The Group's interim condensed consolidated financial
statements are approved for issue by the company's Board of Directors on July 20, 2023.
1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting as issued by International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"),
under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair values.
Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set
of financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and related notes included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended March 31, 2023. Accounting
policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing
accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
The material accounting policy information used in
preparation of the audited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been discussed in the respective notes.
1.3 Basis of consolidation
Infosys consolidates entities which it owns or controls.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the company, its controlled trusts and its
subsidiaries. Control exists when the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has rights to variable returns from its involvement
with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power over the entity. Power is demonstrated through existing
rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which significantly affect the entity's returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated
from the date control commences until the date control ceases.
The financial statements of the Group companies are
consolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-group balances and transactions including unrealized gain / loss from such transactions
are eliminated upon consolidation. The financial statements are prepared by applying uniform accounting policies in use at the Group.
Non-controlling interests which represent part of the net profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries that are not, directly or indirectly,
owned or controlled by the company, are excluded.
1.4 Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires Management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments
and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the period. The application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving complex and subjective
judgments and the use of assumptions in these financial statements have been disclosed in Note 1.5. Accounting estimates could change
from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as Management becomes
aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates and judgements are reflected in the consolidated financial
statements in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the interim condensed
consolidated financial statements.
1.5 Critical accounting estimates and judgments
a. Revenue recognition
The Group’s contracts with customers include
promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Revenues from customer contracts are considered for recognition and
measurement when the contract has been approved, in writing, by the parties to the contract, the parties to the contract are committed
to perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. The Group assesses the services promised
in a contract and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct performance obligations to determine
the deliverables and the ability of the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables, and allocation of transaction price
to these distinct performance obligations involves significant judgement.
Fixed price maintenance revenue is recognized ratably
on a straight-line basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period. Revenue
from fixed price maintenance contract is recognized ratably using a percentage of completion method when the pattern of benefits from
the services rendered to the customer and Group’s costs to fulfil the contract is not even through the period of the contract because
the services are generally discrete in nature and not repetitive. The use of method to recognize the maintenance revenues requires judgment
and is based on the promises in the contract and nature of the deliverables.
The Group uses the percentage-of-completion method
in accounting for other fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the Group to determine the actual efforts
or costs expended to date as a proportion of the estimated total efforts or costs to be incurred. Efforts or costs expended have been
used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. The estimation of total
efforts or costs involves significant judgement and is assessed throughout the period of the contract to reflect any changes based on
the latest available information.
Contracts with customers includes subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Group is acting as an agent between the customer and
the vendor, and gross when the Group is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the Group first evaluates whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Group considers whether it has the primary obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service and therefore, is
acting as a principal or an agent.
Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete
contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract.
b. Income taxes
The Group's two major tax jurisdictions are India and
the United States, though the company also files tax returns in other overseas jurisdictions.
Significant judgments are involved in determining the
provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions.
In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax
assets, Management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization
of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences
become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable
income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, Management believes that the group will realize the benefits
of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the
near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced. (Refer to note 2.13)
c. Business combinations and intangible assets
Business combinations are accounted for using IFRS
3 (Revised), Business Combinations. IFRS 3 requires us to fair value identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration to ascertain
the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. These valuations are conducted by external
valuation experts. Estimates are required to be made in determining the value of contingent consideration, value of option arrangements
and intangible assets. These measurements are based on information available at the acquisition date and are based on expectations and
assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by Management. (Refer to note 2.11 and 2.10.2)
d. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment represent a significant
proportion of the asset base of the Group. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of
an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of
Group's assets are determined by Management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year
end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their
life, such as changes in technology. (Refer to note 2.8)
e. Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis
and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGUs) is less than it’s carrying amount.
For the impairment test, goodwill is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition and which
represent the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
The recoverable amount of CGUs is determined based
on higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost to sell. Key assumptions in the cash flow projections are prepared based on current
economic conditions and comprises estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated operating margins.
(Refer to note 2.10.1)
1.6 Recent accounting pronouncements
1.6.1 Standards issued but not yet effective
New and revised IFRS Standards in issue but not
yet effective:
Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases |
Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback |
Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments |
Disclosure regarding supplier finance arrangements |
Amendments to IFRS 16
On September 22, 2022, International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) has issued amendments to IFRS 16 Leases, which added requirements explaining the subsequent measurement for a sale and leaseback
transaction. These amendments will not change the accounting for leases other than those arising in a sale and leaseback transaction.
The effective date for the adoption of this amendment
is annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The Group does not expect this
amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7
On May 25, 2023 International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) has issued amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosure which requires entities
to disclose information that enables users of financial statement to assess how supplier finance arrangements affect its liabilities and
cash flows and to understand the effect of supplier finance arrangements on an entity’s exposure to liquidity risk and how the entity
might be affected if the arrangements were no longer available to it.
The effective date for adoption of this amendment is
annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The Group is in the process of evaluating
the impact of the amendment.

2.4 Financial instruments
Accounting Policy
2.4.1 Initial recognition
The group recognizes financial assets and financial
liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized
at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, that are not at fair value through
profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted for
at trade date.
2.4.2 Subsequent measurement

(i) Financial assets carried at amortized cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized
cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual
terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets carried at fair value through
other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual
cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that
are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Group has made an irrevocable election for its
investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income based
on its business model.
(iii) Financial assets carried at fair value
through profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset which is not classified in any of
the above categories is subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized
cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration and financial liability under option arrangements recognized
in a business combination which is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss.
b. Derivative financial instruments
The group holds derivative financial instruments such
as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures. The
counterparty for such contracts is generally a bank.
(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities, carried
at fair value through profit or loss
This category includes derivative financial assets
or liabilities which are not designated as hedges.
Although the group believes that these derivatives
constitute hedges from an economic perspective, they may not qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS 9, Financial Instruments. Any derivative
that is either not designated as hedge, or is so designated but is ineffective as per IFRS 9, is categorized as a financial asset or financial
liability carried at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized
initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in net profit in the statement of comprehensive income when
incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, these derivatives are measured at fair value through profit or loss and the resulting exchange
gains or losses are included in other income. Assets/ liabilities in this category are presented as current assets/current liabilities
if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date.
(ii) Cash flow hedge
The group designates certain foreign exchange forward
and options contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast cash transaction.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging
instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated
in the cash flow hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in
the net profit in the statement of comprehensive income. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting,
then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative
gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedging reserve till the period the hedge was effective remains in cash
flow hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging
reserve is transferred to the net profit in the statement of comprehensive income upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction.
If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount accumulated in cash flow hedging reserve is reclassified
to net profit in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
2.4.3 Derecognition of financial instruments
The group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual
rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition
under IFRS 9. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the group's balance sheet when the obligation
specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
2.4.4 Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments,
the group uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date. The
methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices and dealer quotes. All methods
of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.
Refer to table ‘Financial instruments by category’
below for the disclosure on carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets and liabilities maturing
within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to
the short maturity of these instruments.
2.4.5 Impairment
The Group recognizes loss allowances using the expected
credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets and unbilled revenue which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance
for trade receivables and unbilled revenues with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For
all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant
increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL.
The Group determines the allowance for credit losses
based on historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions. The Group considers current
and anticipated future economic conditions relating to industries the Group deals with and the countries where it operates.
The amount of ECL (or reversal) that is required to
adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recorded is recognized as an impairment loss or gain
in consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Fair value hierarchy
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices
included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from
prices).
Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities
that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities
measured at fair value on a recurring basis as at June 30, 2023 is as follows:

During the year ended March 31, 2023, quoted debt securities
of $47 million were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 of fair value hierarchy, since these were valued based on quoted price and quoted
debt securities of $196 million were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 of fair value hierarchy, since these were valued based on market
observable inputs.
A one percentage point change in the unobservable inputs
used in fair valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities does not have a significant impact in its value.
Majority of investments of the Group are fair valued
based on Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. These investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units, target maturity fund units,
quoted debt securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, quoted bonds issued by government and quasi-government organizations.
The Group invests after considering counterparty risks based on multiple criteria including Tier I Capital, Capital Adequacy Ratio, Credit
Rating, Profitability, NPA levels and Deposit base of banks and financial institutions. These risks are monitored regularly as per Group’s
risk management program.

2.7 Provisions and other contingencies
Accounting Policy
Provisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past
event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that is reasonably estimable, and it is probable that an outflow of economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising
from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events
not wholly within the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because it is not
probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation
cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
a. Post sales client support
The Group provides its clients with a fixed-period
post sales support for its fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts. Costs associated with such support services are accrued at the time
related revenues are recorded and included in cost of sales. The Group estimates such costs based on historical experience and estimates
are reviewed on a periodic basis for any material changes in assumptions and likelihood of occurrence.
b. Onerous contracts
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized when
the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting the future obligations
under the contract. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become
probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the lower
of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established
the Group recognizes any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

to be utilized over a period of 1 year.
Provision for post sales client support and other provisions
is included in cost of sales in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
As at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, claims against
the Group, not acknowledged as debts, (excluding demands from income tax authorities- Refer to Note 2.13) amounted to $89 million (
728
crore) and $85 million (
700 crore), respectively.
Legal proceedings
The Group is subject to legal proceedings and claims,
which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Group’s Management reasonably expects that these legal actions, when ultimately
concluded and determined, will not have a material and adverse effect on the Group’s results of operations or financial condition.
2.8 Property, plant and equipment
Accounting Policy
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less
accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant
and equipment are ready for use, as intended by Management. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived at after determining
an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The group depreciates property,
plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:
Building |
22-25 years |
Plant and machinery(1) |
5 years |
Computer equipment |
3-5 years |
Furniture and fixtures |
5 years |
Vehicles |
5 years |
Leasehold improvements |
Lower of useful life of the asset or lease term |
(1) | | Includes solar plant with a useful life of 25 years |
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values
are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The useful lives are based on historical experience with similar assets
as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.
Advances paid towards the acquisition of property,
plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date and the cost of assets not ready to use before such date are disclosed under
‘Capital work-in-progress’. Subsequent expenditures relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it
is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset.
Impairment
Property, plant and equipment are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment
to be recognized in net profit in the statement of comprehensive income is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets
exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in net profit in the statement of comprehensive
income if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased
to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net
of any accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.
The changes in the carrying value of property, plant
and equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 are as follows:

2.9 Leases
Accounting Policy
The Group as a lessee
The Group’s lease asset classes primarily consist
of leases for land, buildings and computers. The group assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract
is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange
for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the group assesses whether:
(1) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (2) the group has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the
asset through the period of the lease and (3) the group has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Group
recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee,
except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases,
the Group recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
As a lessee, the Group determines the lease term as
the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate the lease, if the use of such option is reasonably
certain. The Group makes an assessment on the expected lease term on a lease-by-lease basis and thereby assesses whether it is reasonably
certain that any options to extend or terminate the contract will be exercised. In evaluating the lease term, the Company considers factors
such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the termination of the lease and the
importance of the underlying asset to Group’s operations taking into account the location of the underlying asset and the availability
of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods is reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the current economic circumstances.
Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend
or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably
certain that they will be exercised.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at
cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date
of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement
date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
Right-of-use assets are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized
cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease
or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are
remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset if the group changes its assessment if whether it will exercise
an extension or a termination option.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately
presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
The Group as a lessor
Leases for which the group is a lessor is classified
as a finance or operating lease. Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the
lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts
for its interests in the head lease and the sublease separately. The sublease is classified as a finance or operating lease by reference
to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease.
For operating leases, rental income is recognized on
a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

2.10 Goodwill and Intangible assets
2.10.1 Goodwill
Accounting Policy
Goodwill represents purchase consideration in excess
of the Group's interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired entity. When
the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired exceeds the purchase consideration, the
fair value of net assets acquired is reassessed and the bargain purchase gain is recognized immediately in the net profit in the Statement
of Comprehensive Income. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis
and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGU) is less than its carrying amount. For
the impairment test, goodwill is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGU’s which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition and
which represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. A CGU is the smallest identifiable
group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets. Impairment
occurs when the carrying amount of a CGU including the goodwill, exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable
amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. Value-in-use is the present value of future cash
flows expected to be derived from the CGU. Key assumptions in the cash flow projections are prepared based on current economic conditions
and includes estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated operating margins.

2.10.2 Intangible assets
Accounting Policy
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated
amortization and impairment. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line
basis, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on a number
of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry
and known technological advances), and the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the
asset. Amortization methods and useful lives are reviewed periodically including at each financial year end.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Software product
development costs are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated, future economic
benefits are probable, the Group has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the costs can be measured reliably.
The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labour, overhead costs that are directly attributable to prepare
the asset for its intended use.
Impairment
Intangible assets are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment
to be recognized in the net profit in the statement of comprehensive income is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the
assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the net profit in the statement of comprehensive
income if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased
to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net
of any accumulated amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.
2.11 Business combinations
Accounting policy
Business combinations have been accounted for using
the acquisition method under the provisions of IFRS 3 (Revised), Business Combinations.
The purchase price in an acquisition is measured at
the fair value of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of acquisition, which
is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. The purchase price also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their
fair value on the date of acquisition. Contingent consideration is remeasured at fair value at each reporting date and changes in the
fair value of the contingent consideration are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The interest of non-controlling shareholders is initially
measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net
assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount
of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’ share of
subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries.
Business combinations between entities under common
control is outside the scope of IFRS 3 (Revised), Business Combinations and is accounted for at carrying value of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed.
The payments related to options issued by the Group
over the non-controlling interests in its subsidiaries are accounted as financial liabilities and initially recognized at the estimated
present value of gross obligations. Such options are subsequently measured at fair value in order to reflect the amount payable under
the option at the date at which it becomes exercisable. In the event that the option expires unexercised, the liability is derecognised.
Transaction costs that the Group incurs in connection
with a business combination such as finder’s fees, legal fees, due diligence fees, and other professional and consulting fees are
expensed as incurred.
2.12 Employees' Stock Option Plans (ESOP)
Accounting Policy
The Group recognizes compensation expense relating
to share-based payments in net profit based on estimated fair-values of the awards on the grant date. The estimated fair value of awards
is recognized as an expense in net profit in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the requisite
service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was in-substance, multiple awards with a corresponding
increase to share premium.
Infosys Expanded Stock Ownership Program 2019 (the
2019 Plan)
On June 22, 2019 pursuant to approval by the shareholders

Expanded Stock Ownership Trust. The Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) granted under the 2019 plan shall vest based on the achievement of defined
annual performance parameters as determined by the administrator (Nomination and Remuneration Committee). The performance parameters will
be based on a combination of relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR) against selected industry peers and certain broader market domestic
and global indices and operating performance metrics of the company as decided by administrator. Each of the above performance parameters
will be distinct for the purposes of calculation of quantity of shares to vest based on performance. These instruments will generally
vest between a minimum of 1 to maximum of 3 years from the grant date.

shall not exceed 24,038,883 equity shares (this includes 11,223,576 equity shares which are held by the trust towards the 2011 Plan as
at March 31, 2016). These instruments will generally vest over a period of 4 years The plan numbers mentioned above are further adjusted
with the September 2018 bonus issue.
The equity settled and cash settled RSUs and stock
options would vest generally over a period of 4 years and shall be exercisable within the period as approved by the Nomination and Remuneration
Committee (NARC). The exercise price of the RSUs will be equal to the par value of the shares and the exercise price of the stock options
would be the market price as on the date of grant.
Controlled trust holds 11,738,357 and 12,172,119 shares
as at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively under the 2015 plan. Out of these shares, 2,00,000 equity shares each have been earmarked

The fair value of the awards are estimated using the
Black-Scholes Model for time and non-market performance based options and Monte Carlo simulation model is used for TSR based options.
The inputs to the model include the share price at
date of grant, exercise price, expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term and the risk free rate of interest. Expected volatility
during the expected term of the options is based on historical volatility of the observed market prices of the Company's publicly traded
equity shares during a period equivalent to the expected term of the options. Expected volatility of the comparative company have been
modelled based on historical movements in the market prices of their publicly traded equity shares during a period equivalent to the expected
term of the options. Correlation coefficient is calculated between each peer entity and the indices as a whole or between each entity
in the peer group.
The fair value of each equity settled award is estimated
on the date of grant using the following assumptions:

2.13 Income Taxes
Accounting policy
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred income
tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income except to the extent that it
relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity or other comprehensive income. Current income
tax for current and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the
tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the
financial statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax
benefit will be realized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured
using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of changes in tax rates on
deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment or the substantive
enactment date. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Deferred income taxes are not provided on the undistributed
earnings of subsidiaries and branches where it is expected that the earnings of the subsidiary or branch will not be distributed in the
foreseeable future.
The Group offsets current tax assets and current tax
liabilities; deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts
and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The income tax
provision for the interim period is made based on the best estimate of the annual average tax rate expected to be applicable for the full
financial year. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are
credited to equity.
Income tax expense in the interim condensed consolidated
statement of comprehensive income comprises:

Income tax expense for the three months ended June
30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 includes reversals (net of provisions) of $2 million and provisions (net of reversals) of $4 million, respectively.
These provisions and reversals pertaining to prior periods are primarily on account of adjudication of certain disputed matters, upon
filing of tax return and completion of assessments, across various jurisdictions.
Deferred income tax for the three months ended June
30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 substantially relates to origination and reversal of temporary differences.
The Company’s Advanced Pricing Arrangement (APA)
with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for US branch income tax expired in March 2021. The Company has applied for renewal of APA and
currently the US taxable income is based on the Company’s best estimate determined based on the expected value method.
As at June 30, 2023, claims against the Group not acknowledged
as debts from the Income tax authorities amounted to $496 million (
4,066 crore). As at March 31, 2023, claims against the Group
not acknowledged as debts from the Income tax authorities amounted to $494 million (
4,062 crore).
Amount paid to statutory authorities against the tax
claims amounted to $792 million (
6,498 crore) and $794 million (
6,528 crore) as at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023 respectively.
The claims against the group primarily represent demands
arising on completion of assessment proceedings under the Income Tax Act, 1961. These claims are on account of multiple issues of disallowances
such as disallowance of profits earned from STP Units and SEZ Units, disallowance of deductions in respect of employment of new employees
under section 80JJAA, disallowance of expenditure towards software being held as capital in nature, payments made to Associated Enterprises
held as liable for withholding of taxes. These matters are pending before various Income Tax Authorities and the Management including
the Company's tax advisors expect that its position will likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material adverse
effect on the Group's financial position and results of operations.
2.14 Basic and diluted shares used in computing
earnings per equity share
Accounting Policy
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing
the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Group by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Group by the
weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number
of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares
are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the
outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at
a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive
equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes
effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.

2.16 Segment reporting
IFRS 8 Operating Segments establishes standards for
the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The Group's operations predominantly relate to providing end-to-end business solutions to enable
clients to enhance business performance.
The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) evaluates
the Group's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly,
information has been presented along business segments. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements
are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in individual segments, and are as set out in the accounting policies.
Business segments of the Group are primarily enterprises
in Financial Services and Insurance, enterprises in Manufacturing, enterprises in Retail, Consumer Packaged Goods and Logistics, enterprises
in the Energy, Utilities, Resources and Services, enterprises in Communication, Telecom OEM and Media, enterprises in Hi-Tech, enterprises
in Life Sciences and Healthcare and all other segments. The Financial services reportable segments has been aggregated to include the
Financial Services operating segment and Finacle operating segment because of the similarity of the economic characteristics. All other
segments represent the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan, China, Infosys Public Services & other enterprises in Public
Services.
Revenue and identifiable operating expenses in relation
to segments are categorized based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment. Revenue for 'all other segments' represents
revenue generated by Infosys Public Services and revenue generated from customers located in India, Japan and China and other enterprises
in public service. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services from the Group's offshore software
development centers and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated efforts of the segment. Certain expenses
such as depreciation and amortization, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically allocable to specific
segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. The Management believes that it is not practical to provide segment disclosures
relating to those costs and expenses, and accordingly these expenses are separately disclosed as "unallocated" and adjusted
against the total income of the Group.
Assets and liabilities used in the Group's business
are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The Management believes that
it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation
of the available data is onerous.
Business segment revenue information is collated based
on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.
Disclosure of revenue by geographic locations is given
in note 2.17 Revenue from operations.

No client individually accounted for more than 10%

2.17 Revenue from Operations
Accounting Policy:
The Group derives revenues primarily from IT services
comprising software development and related services, cloud and infrastructure services, maintenance, consulting and package implementation,
licensing of software products and platforms across the Group’s core and digital offerings (together called as “software related
services”) and business process management services. Contracts with customers are either on a time-and-material, unit of work, fixed-price
or on a fixed-timeframe basis.
Revenues from customer contracts are considered for
recognition and measurement when the contract has been approved in writing, by the parties, to the contract, the parties to contract are
committed to perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. Revenue is recognized upon
transfer of control of promised products or services (“performance obligations”) to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration the Group has received or expects to receive in exchange for these products or services (“transaction price”).
When there is uncertainty as to collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved.
The Group assesses the services promised in a contract
and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. The Group allocates the transaction price to each distinct performance
obligation based on the relative standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the
best evidence of its standalone selling price. In the absence of such evidence, the primary method used to estimate standalone selling
price is the expected cost plus a margin, under which the Group estimates the cost of satisfying the performance obligation and then adds
an appropriate margin based on similar services.
The Group’s contracts may include variable consideration
including rebates, volume discounts and penalties. The Group includes variable consideration as part of transaction price when there is
a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the variable consideration and when it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative
revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.
Revenue on time-and-material and unit of work based
contracts, are recognized as the related services are performed. Fixed price maintenance revenue is recognized ratably either on a straight-line
basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period or ratably using a percentage
of completion method when the pattern of benefits from the services rendered to the customer and Group’s costs to fulfil the contract
is not even through the period of contract because the services are generally discrete in nature and not repetitive. Revenue from other
fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time is recognized using the percentage-of-completion
method. Efforts or costs expended are used to determine progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and
productivity. Progress towards completion is measured as the ratio of costs or efforts incurred to date (representing work performed)
to the estimated total costs or efforts. Estimates of transaction price and total costs or efforts are continuously monitored over the
term of the contracts and are recognized in net profit in the period when these estimates change or when the estimates are revised. Revenues
and the estimated total costs or efforts are subject to revision as the contract progresses. Provisions for estimated losses, if any,
on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete
the contract.
The billing schedules agreed with customers include
periodic performance based billing and / or milestone based progress billings. Revenues in excess of billing are classified as unbilled
revenue while billing in excess of revenues are classified as contract liabilities (which we refer to as unearned revenues).
In arrangements for software development and related
services and maintenance services, by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct performance obligation, the arrangements
with customers generally meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as distinct performance obligations.
For allocating the transaction price, the Group measures the revenue in respect of each performance obligation of a contract at its relative
standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence of its standalone
selling price. In cases where the Group is unable to determine the standalone selling price, the Group uses the expected cost plus margin
approach in estimating the standalone selling price. For software development and related services, the performance obligations are satisfied
as and when the services are rendered since the customer generally obtains control of the work as it progresses.
Certain cloud and infrastructure services contracts
include multiple elements which may be subject to other specific accounting guidance, such as leasing guidance. These contracts are accounted
in accordance with such specific accounting guidance. In such arrangements where the Group is able to determine that hardware and services
are distinct performance obligations, it allocates the consideration to these performance obligations on a relative standalone selling
price basis. In the absence of standalone selling price, the Group uses the expected cost-plus margin approach in estimating the standalone
selling price. When such arrangements are considered as a single performance obligation, revenue is recognized over the period and measure
of progress is determined based on promise in the contract.
Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains a
“right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the license is made available to the customer. Revenue from licenses
where the customer obtains a “right to access” is recognized over the access period.
Arrangements to deliver software products generally
have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS).When implementation services are provided in conjunction
with the licensing arrangement and the license and implementation have been identified as two distinct separate performance obligations,
the transaction price for such contracts are allocated to each performance obligation of the contract based on their relative standalone
selling prices. In the absence of standalone selling price for implementation, the Group uses the expected cost plus margin approach in
estimating the standalone selling price. Where the license is required to be substantially customized as part of the implementation service
the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation is considered to be a single performance obligation and the revenue is recognized
using the percentage-of-completion method as the implementation is performed. Revenue from client training, support and other services
arising due to the sale of software products is recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied. ATS revenue is recognized ratably
on a straight-line basis over the period in which the services are rendered.
Contracts with customers includes subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Group is acting as an agent between the customer and
the vendor, and gross when the Group is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the group first evaluates whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Group considers whether it has the primary obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service and therefore is
acting as a principal or an agent.
The incremental costs of obtaining a contract (i.e.,
costs that would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained) are recognized as an asset if the Group expects to recover
them.
Certain eligible, nonrecurring costs (e.g. set-up or
transition or transformation costs) that do not represent a separate performance obligation are recognized as an asset when such costs
(a) relate directly to the contract; (b) generate or enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying the performance obligation
in the future; and (c) are expected to be recovered.
Capitalized contract costs relating to upfront payments
to customers are amortized to revenue and other capitalized costs are amortized to cost of sales over the respective contract life on
a systematic basis consistent with the transfer of goods or services to customer to which the asset relates. Capitalized costs are monitored
regularly for impairment. Impairment losses are recorded when present value of projected remaining operating cash flows is not sufficient
to recover the carrying amount of the capitalized costs.
The Group presents revenues net of indirect taxes in
its Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Disaggregated revenue information
Revenue disaggregation by business segments has been
included in segment information (Refer note 2.16). The table below presents disaggregated revenues from contracts with customers by geography
and contract type. The Group believes that this disaggregation best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues
and cash flows are affected by industry, market and other economic factors.

The percentage of revenue from fixed-price contracts

Trade Receivables and Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash
collections results in receivables, unbilled revenue, and unearned revenue on the Group’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Amounts are
billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., monthly or quarterly)
or upon achievement of contractual milestones.
The Group’s receivables are rights to consideration
that are unconditional. Unbilled revenues comprising revenues in excess of billings from time and material contracts and fixed price maintenance
contracts are classified as financial asset when the right to consideration is unconditional and is due only after a passage of time.
Invoicing to the clients for other fixed price contracts
is based on milestones as defined in the contract and therefore the timing of revenue recognition is different from the timing of invoicing
to the customers. Therefore, unbilled revenues for other fixed price contracts (contract asset) are classified as non-financial asset
because the right to consideration is dependent on completion of contractual milestones.
Invoicing in excess of earnings are classified as unearned
revenue.
Trade receivable and unbilled revenues are presented
net of impairment in the consolidated statement of balance sheet.

2.19 Equity
Accounting policy
Ordinary Shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental
costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares, share options and buyback are recognized as a deduction from equity,
net of any tax effects.
Treasury Shares
When any entity within the Group purchases the company's
ordinary shares, the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost is presented as a deduction from total equity,
until they are cancelled, sold or reissued. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized
as an increase in equity, and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is transferred to/ from Share premium.
Description of reserves
Retained earnings
Retained earnings represent the amount of accumulated
earnings of the Group.
Share premium
The amount received in excess of the par value of equity
shares has been classified as share premium. Additionally, share-based compensation recognized in net profit in the interim condensed
consolidated statement of comprehensive income is credited to share premium. Amounts have been utilized for bonus issue and share buyback
from share premium account.
Special Economic Zone Re-investment reserve
The Special Economic Zone Re-investment reserve has
been created out of the profit of the eligible SEZ unit in terms of the provisions of Sec 10AA (1)(ii) of Income Tax Act, 1961. The reserve
should be utilized by the Company for acquiring new plant and machinery for the purpose of its business in terms of the provisions of
the Sec 10AA (2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Capital Redemption Reserve
In accordance with section 69 of the Indian Companies
Act, 2013, the Company creates capital redemption reserve equal to the nominal value of the shares bought back as an appropriation from
general reserve / retained earnings.
Other components of equity
Other components of equity include currency translation,
re-measurement of net defined benefit liability/asset, fair value changes of equity instruments fair valued through other comprehensive
income, changes on fair valuation of investments, net of taxes.
Cash flow hedge reserve
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging
instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated
in the cash flow hedging reserve. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to
the net profit in the consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction.
2.19.1 Capital allocation policy
Effective fiscal 2020, the company expects to return
approximately 85% of the free cash flow cumulatively over a 5-year period through a combination of semi annual dividends and/or share
buyback and/or special dividends, subject to applicable laws and requisite approvals, if any. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided
by operating activities less capital expenditure as per the consolidated statement of cash flows prepared under IFRS. Dividend and buyback
include applicable taxes.
The Company’s objective when managing capital
is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximize shareholder
value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividend payment, return capital
to shareholders, issue new shares or buy back issued shares. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has only one class of equity shares and
has no debt. Consequent to the above capital structure there are no externally imposed capital requirements.
2.19.2 Dividend
The final dividend on shares is recorded as a liability
on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company's
Board of Directors. Income tax consequences of dividends on financial instruments classified as equity will be recognized according to
where the entity originally recognized those past transactions or events that generated distributable profits.
The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees.
Companies are required to pay/distribute dividend after deducting applicable taxes. The remittance of dividends outside India is governed
by Indian law on foreign exchange and is also subject to withholding tax at applicable rates.
The amount of per share dividend recognized as distribution
to equity shareholders in accordance with Companies Act 2013 is as follows:

Accounting policy
2.20.1 Gratuity and Pensions
The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit
retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees majorly of Infosys and its Indian subsidiaries. The Gratuity Plan provides
a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective
employee's salary and the tenure of employment with the Group. The Company contributes Gratuity liabilities to the Infosys Limited Employees'
Gratuity Fund Trust (the Trust). In case of Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPM Employees' Gratuity Fund
Trust and EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively. Trustees administer contributions made to the Trusts
and contributions are invested in a scheme with the Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by Indian law.
The Group operates defined benefit pension plan in
certain overseas jurisdictions, in accordance with the local laws. These plans are managed by third party fund managers. The plans provide
for periodic payouts after retirement or for a lumpsum payment as set out in rules of each fund and includes death and disability benefits.
The defined benefit plans require contributions which are based on a percentage of salary that varies depending on the age of the respective
employees.
Liabilities with regard to these defined benefit plans
are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit credit
method. These defined benefit plans expose the Group to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, interest rate risk and market risk.
The Group recognizes the net obligation of a defined
benefit plan in its Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability/(asset)
are recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods. The actual return of the
portfolio of plan assets, in excess of the yields computed by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation
is recognized in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments is recognized in net profits in the consolidated statement
of comprehensive income.
2.20.2 Superannuation
Certain employees of Infosys, Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve
are participants in a defined contribution plan. The Group has no further obligations to the Plan beyond its monthly contributions which
are periodically contributed to a trust fund, the corpus of which is invested with the Life Insurance Corporation of India.
2.20.3 Provident fund
Eligible employees of Infosys receive benefits from
a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the eligible employee and the company make monthly contributions to the provident
fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. The company contributes a portion of the contributions to
the Infosys Limited Employees' Provident Fund Trust. The trust invests in specific designated instruments as permitted by Indian law.
The remaining portion is contributed to the government administered pension fund. The rate at which the annual interest is payable to
the beneficiaries by the trust is being administered by the Government of India. The company has an obligation to make good the shortfall,
if any, between the return from the investments of the Trust and the notified interest rate.
In respect of Indian subsidiaries, eligible employees
receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the eligible employee and the respective companies
make monthly contributions to this provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. Amounts collected
under the provident fund plan are deposited in a government administered provident fund. The companies have no further obligation to the
plan beyond its monthly contributions.
2.20.4 Compensated absences
The Group has a policy on compensated absences which
are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined by actuarial
valuation performed by an independent actuary at each balance sheet date using projected unit credit method on the additional amount expected
to be paid/availed as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the balance sheet date. Expense on non-accumulating compensated
absences is recognized in the period in which the absences occur.
2.20.5 Other income, net
Other income is comprised primarily of interest income,
dividend income, gain/loss on investment and exchange gain/loss on forward and options contracts and on translation of foreign currency
assets and liabilities. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right
to receive payment is established.
2.20.6 Foreign Currency
Functional currency and presentation currency
The functional currency of Infosys, Infosys BPM, EdgeVerve,
Skava and controlled trusts is the Indian rupee. The functional currencies for foreign subsidiaries are their respective local currencies.
These financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars (rounded off to the nearest million) to facilitate the investors’ ability
to evaluate Infosys’ performance and financial
position in comparison to similar companies domiciled in other geographic locations.
Transactions and translations
Foreign-currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities
are translated into the relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the Balance Sheet date. The gains or losses resulting
from such translations are recognized in the interim condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and reported within exchange
gains/ (losses) on translation of assets and liabilities, net, except when deferred in Other Comprehensive Income as qualifying cash flow
hedges. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at
the exchange rate prevalent at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated
in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction. The related
revenue and expense are recognised using the same exchange rate.
Transaction gains or losses realized upon settlement
of foreign currency transactions are included in determining net profit for the period in which the transaction is settled. Revenue, expense
and cash-flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the relevant functional currencies using the exchange rate in
effect on the date of the transaction.
The translation of financial statements of the foreign
subsidiaries to the presentation currency is performed for assets and liabilities using the exchange rate in effect at the Balance Sheet
date and for revenue, expense and cash-flow items using the average exchange rate for the respective periods. The gains or losses resulting
from such translation are included in currency translation reserves under other components of equity. When a subsidiary is disposed off,
in full, the relevant amount is transferred to net profit in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. However, when a change in the parent's
ownership does not result in loss of control of a subsidiary, such changes are recorded through equity.
Other Comprehensive Income, net of taxes includes translation
differences on non-monetary financial assets measured at fair value at the reporting date, such as equities classified as financial instruments
and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the
acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the exchange rate in effect
at the Balance Sheet date.
2.20.7 Government grants
The Group recognizes government grants only when there
is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to them shall be complied with, and the grants will be received. Government grants
related to assets are treated as deferred income and are recognized in the net profit in the statement of comprehensive income on a systematic
and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Government grants related to revenue are recognized on a systematic basis in the
statement of comprehensive income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate.
2.20.8 Operating Profits
Operating profit of the Group is computed considering
the revenues, net of cost of sales, selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses.

Exhibit 99.8
IFRS INR Earning Release
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF INFOSYS LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Interim Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying interim condensed
consolidated financial statements of INFOSYS LIMITED (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the Company and its subsidiaries
together referred to as the “Group”), which comprise the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as at June 30, 2023, the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended on that date, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information (hereinafter referred to as the “interim condensed consolidated financial statements”).
In our opinion and to the best of our information
and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid interim condensed consolidated financial statements give a true and fair
view in conformity with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”) as issued
by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group as at June 30,
2023, and their consolidated profit, their consolidated total comprehensive income, their consolidated changes in equity and their consolidated
cash flows for the three months ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the interim condensed
consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (“SA”s) issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India (“ICAI”). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities
for the Audit of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance
with the Code of Ethics issued by the ICAI, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code of Ethics.
We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the interim
condensed consolidated financial statements.
Responsibilities of Management and Those
Charged with Governance for the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible
for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view of the
consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance, consolidated total comprehensive income, consolidated changes in
equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group in accordance with IAS 34 as issued by the IASB. The respective Boards of Directors of
the companies included in the Group are responsible for maintenance of the adequate accounting records for safeguarding assets of the
Group and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies;
making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation
and presentation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements by the Directors of the Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements, the respective Boards of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for assessing the ability
of the respective entities to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless the respective Boards of Directors either intend to liquidate their respective entities or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Boards of Directors of the companies
included in the Group are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud
or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is
not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence
the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• | | Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting
from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations,
or the override of internal control. |
• | | Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on effectiveness
of such controls. |
• | | Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management. |
• | | Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant
doubt on the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required
to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements
or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date
of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. |
• | | Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the interim condensed consolidated financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
• | | Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities
within the Group to express an opinion on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction,
supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements of which we are the independent auditors. |
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements
in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions
of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to
evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance
of the Company and such other entities included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent
auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any significant
deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance
with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships
and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from
operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. The Group considers all highly liquid investments that are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

INFOSYS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Overview and Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements
1. Overview
1.1 Company overview
Infosys Limited ('the Company' or Infosys) provides
consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation digital services, to enable clients to execute strategies for their digital transformation.
Infosys strategic objective is to build a sustainable organization that remains relevant to the agenda of clients, while creating growth
opportunities for employees and generating profitable returns for investors. Infosys strategy is to be a navigator for our clients as
they ideate, plan and execute on their journey to a digital future.
Infosys together with its subsidiaries and controlled
trusts is herein after referred to as the "Group".
The Company is a public limited company incorporated
and domiciled in India and has its registered office at Electronics City, Hosur Road, Bengaluru -560100, Karnataka, India. The Company
has its primary listings on the BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The Company’s American Depositary Shares
(ADS) representing equity shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The Group's interim condensed consolidated financial
statements are approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on July 20, 2023.
1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements
These interim consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in compliance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting as issued by International Accounting Standards Board, ("IASB")
under the historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair values.
Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set
of financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements under IFRS in Indian rupee for
the year ended March 31, 2023. Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially
adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
The material accounting policy information used in
preparation of the audited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been discussed in the respective notes.
1.3 Basis of consolidation
Infosys consolidates entities which it owns or controls.
The interim consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company, its controlled trusts and its subsidiaries.
Control exists when the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the
entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power over the entity. Power is demonstrated through existing rights that
give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which significantly affect the entity's returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated from
the date control commences until the date control ceases.
The financial statements of the Group Companies are
consolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-group balances and transactions including unrealized gain / loss from such transactions
are eliminated upon consolidation. These financial statements are prepared by applying uniform accounting policies in use at the Group.
Non-controlling interests which represent part of the net profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries that are not, directly or indirectly,
owned or controlled by the Company, are excluded.
1.4 Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments
and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the period. Application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving complex and subjective judgments and
the use of assumptions in these financial statements have been disclosed in Note 1.5. Accounting estimates could change from period to
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes aware of changes
in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates and judgments are reflected in the financial statements in the period
in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
1.5 Critical accounting estimates and judgments
a. Revenue recognition
The Group’s contracts with customers include
promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Revenues from customer contracts are considered for recognition and
measurement when the contract has been approved, in writing, by the parties to the contract, the parties to the contract are committed
to perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. The Group assesses the services promised
in a contract and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct performance obligations to determine
the deliverables and the ability of the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables, and allocation of transaction price
to these distinct performance obligations involves significant judgement.
Fixed price maintenance revenue is recognized ratably
on a straight-line basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period. Revenue
from a fixed price maintenance contract is recognized ratably using a percentage of completion method when the pattern of benefits from
the services rendered to the customer and the Group’s costs to fulfil the contract is not even through the period of the contract
because the services are generally discrete in nature and not repetitive. The use of method to recognize the maintenance revenues requires
judgment and is based on the promises in the contract and nature of the deliverables.
The Group uses the percentage-of-completion method
in accounting for other fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the Group to determine the actual efforts
or costs expended to date as a proportion of the estimated total efforts or costs to be incurred. Efforts or costs expended have been
used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. The estimation of total
efforts or costs involves significant judgement and is assessed throughout the period of the contract to reflect any changes based on
the latest available information.
Contracts with customers includes subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Group is acting as an agent between the customer and
the vendor, and gross when the Group is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the Group first evaluates whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Group considers whether it has the primary obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service and therefore, is
acting as a principal or an agent.
Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete
contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract.
b. Income taxes
The Group's two major tax jurisdictions are India and
the United States, though the Company also files tax returns in other overseas jurisdictions.
Significant judgments are involved in determining the
provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions.
In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax
assets, the Management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization
of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences
become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable
income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, the Management believes that the group will realize the
benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced
in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced. (Refer to Note 2.13)
c. Business combinations and intangible assets
Business combinations are accounted for using IFRS
3 (Revised), Business Combinations. IFRS 3 requires us to fair value identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration to ascertain
the fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. These valuations are conducted by external
valuation experts. Estimates are required to be made in determining the value of contingent consideration, value of option arrangements
and intangible assets. These measurements are based on information available at the acquisition date and are based on expectations and
assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by Management. (Refer to Note 2.11 and 2.10.2).
d. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment represent a significant
proportion of the asset base of the Group. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of
an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of
Group's assets are determined by Management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year
end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their
life, such as changes in technology. (Refer to Note 2.8).
e. Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis
and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGUs) is less than its carrying amount. For
the impairment test, goodwill is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition and which
represent the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
The recoverable amount of CGUs is determined based
on higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost to sell. Key assumptions in the cash flow projections are prepared based on current
economic conditions and comprises estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated operating margins.
(Refer to note 2.10.1)

Amendments to IFRS 16
On September 22, 2022, International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) has issued amendments to IFRS 16 Leases, which added requirements explaining the subsequent measurement for a sale and leaseback
transaction. These amendments will not change the accounting for leases other than those arising in a sale and leaseback transaction.
The effective date for the adoption of this amendment
is annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The Group does not expect this
amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7
On May 25, 2023 International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) has issued amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosure which requires entities
to disclose information that enables users of financial statement to assess how supplier finance arrangements affect its liabilities and
cash flows and to understand the effect of supplier finance arrangements on an entity’s exposure to liquidity risk and how the entity
might be affected if the arrangements were no longer available to it.
The effective date for adoption of this amendment is
annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The Group is in the process of evaluating
the impact of the amendment.

2.4 Financial instruments
Accounting Policy
2.4.1 Initial recognition
The Group recognizes financial assets and financial
liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized
at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities which are not at fair value through
profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted for
at trade date.
2.4.2 Subsequent measurement
a. Non-derivative financial instruments
(i) Financial assets at amortized cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized
cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual
terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through other
comprehensive income (FVOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual
cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that
are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Group has made an irrevocable election for its
investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income based
on its business model.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through
profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset which is not classified in any of
the above categories is subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized
cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration and financial liability under option arrangements recognized
in a business combination which is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss.
b. Derivative financial instruments
The Group holds derivative financial instruments such
as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures. The
counterparty for such contracts is generally a bank.
(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities, carried
at fair value through profit or loss
This category includes derivative financial assets
or liabilities which are not designated as hedges.
Although the Group believes that these derivatives
constitute hedges from an economic perspective, they may not qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS 9, Financial Instruments. Any derivative
that is either not designated as hedge, or is so designated but is ineffective as per IFRS 9, is categorized as a financial asset or financial
liability, at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized
initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in net profit in the interim consolidated statement of comprehensive
income when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, these derivatives are measured at fair value through profit or loss and the resulting
exchange gains or losses are included in other income. Assets/ liabilities in this category are presented as current assets/current liabilities
if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the Balance Sheet date.
(ii) Cash flow hedge
The Group designates certain foreign exchange forward
and options contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging
instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated
in the cash flow hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in
the net profit in the interim consolidated statement of comprehensive income. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for
hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised,
the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedging reserve till the period the hedge was effective
remains in cash flow hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the
cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the net profit in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income upon the occurrence of
the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount accumulated in cash
flow hedging reserve is reclassified to net profit in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
2.4.3 Derecognition of financial instruments
The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual
rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition
under IFRS 9. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Group's Balance Sheet when the obligation
specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
2.4.4 Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments,
the Group uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date. The
methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices and dealer quotes. All methods
of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.
Refer to table 'Financial instruments by category'
below for the disclosure on carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets and liabilities maturing
within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to
the short maturity of these instruments.
2.4.5 Impairment
The Group recognizes loss allowances using the expected
credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets and unbilled revenue which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance
for trade receivables and unbilled revenues with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For
all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant
increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL.
The Group determines the allowance for credit losses
based on historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions. The Group considers current
and anticipated future economic conditions relating to industries the Group deals with and the countries where it operates.
The amount of ECL (or reversal) that is required to
adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recorded is recognized as an impairment loss or gain
in the interim consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Fair value hierarchy
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices
included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from
prices).
Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities
that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities
measured at fair value on a recurring basis as at June 30, 2023 is as follows:

During the year ended March 31, 2023, quoted debt securities
of
383 crore were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 of fair value hierarchy, since these were valued based on quoted price and
quoted debt securities of
1,611 crore were transferred
from Level 1 to Level 2 of fair value hierarchy, since these were valued based on market observable inputs.
A one percentage point change in the unobservable inputs
used in fair valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities does not have a significant impact in its value.
Majority of investments of the Group are fair valued
based on Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. These investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units, target maturity fund units,
quoted debt securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, quoted bonds issued by government and quasi-government organizations.
The Group invests after considering counterparty risks based on multiple criteria including Tier I Capital, Capital Adequacy Ratio, Credit
Rating, Profitability, NPA levels and Deposit base of banks and financial institutions. These risks are monitored regularly as per Group’s
risk management program.

2.7 Provisions and other contingencies
Accounting Policy
Provisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past
event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that is reasonably estimable, and it is probable that an outflow of economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising
from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events
not wholly within the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because it is not
probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation
cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
a. Post sales client support
The Group provides its clients with a fixed-period
post sales support on its fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts. Costs associated with such support services are accrued at the time
related revenues are recorded and included in cost of sales. The Group estimates such costs based on historical experience and estimates
are reviewed on a periodic basis for any material changes in assumptions and likelihood of occurrence.
b. Onerous contracts
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized when
the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting the future obligations
under the contract. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become
probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the lower
of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established
the Group recognizes any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

is included in cost of sales in the interim consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
As at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023 claims against
the Group, not acknowledged as debts, (excluding demands from income tax authorities - Refer to note 2.13) amounted to
728 crore
and
700 crore respectively.
Legal proceedings
The Group is subject to legal proceedings and claims,
which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Group’s management reasonably expects that these legal actions, when ultimately
concluded and determined, will not have a material and adverse effect on the Group’s results of operations or financial condition.
2.8 Property, plant and equipment
Accounting Policy
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less
accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant
and equipment are ready for use, as intended by the Management. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived at after determining
an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The Group depreciates property,
plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:
Building |
22-25 years |
Plant and machinery(1) |
5 years |
Computer equipment |
3-5 years |
Furniture and fixtures |
5 years |
Vehicles |
5 years |
Leasehold improvements |
Lower of useful life of the asset or lease term |
(1) | | Includes solar plant with a useful life of 25 years |
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values
are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The useful lives are based on historical experience with similar assets
as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.
Advances paid towards the acquisition of property,
plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date and the cost of assets not ready to use before such date are disclosed under
‘Capital work-in-progress’. Subsequent expenditures relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it
is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset.
Impairment
Property, plant and equipment are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment
to be recognized in net profit in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income is measured by the amount by which
the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in net profit in
the consolidated statement of comprehensive income if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.
The carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior
years.
The changes in the carrying value of property, plant
and equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 are as follows:

2.9 Leases
Accounting Policy
The Group as a lessee
The Group’s lease asset classes primarily consist
of leases for land, buildings and computers. The Group assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract
is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange
for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group assesses whether:
(1) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (2) the Group has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the
asset through the period of the lease and (3) the Group has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Group
recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee,
except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases,
the Group recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
As a lessee, the Group determines the lease term as
the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate the lease, if the use of such option is reasonably
certain. The Group makes an assessment on the expected lease term on a lease-by-lease basis and thereby assesses whether it is reasonably
certain that any options to extend or terminate the contract will be exercised. In evaluating the lease term, the Company considers factors
such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the termination of the lease and the
importance of the underlying asset to Group’s operations taking into account the location of the underlying asset and the availability
of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods is reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the current economic circumstances.
Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend
or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably
certain that they will be exercised.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at
cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date
of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement
date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
Right-of-use assets are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized
cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease
or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are
remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset if the group changes its assessment if whether it will exercise
an extension or a termination option.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately
presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
The Group as a lessor
Leases for which the group is a lessor is classified
as a finance or operating lease. Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the
lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts
for its interests in the head lease and the sublease separately. The sublease is classified as a finance or operating lease by reference
to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease.
For operating leases, rental income is recognized on
a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

2.10 Goodwill and Intangible assets
2.10.1 Goodwill
Accounting Policy
Goodwill represents the purchase consideration in excess
of the Group's interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired entity. When
the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired exceeds the purchase consideration, the
fair value of net assets acquired is reassessed and the bargain purchase gain is recognized immediately in the net profit in the Statement
of Comprehensive Income. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis
and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGU) is less than its carrying amount. For
the impairment test, goodwill is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGU’s which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition and
which represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. A CGU is the smallest identifiable
group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets. Impairment
occurs when the carrying amount of a CGU including the goodwill, exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable
amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. Value-in-use is the present value of future cash
flows expected to be derived from the CGU. Key assumptions in the cash flow projections are prepared based on current economic conditions
and includes estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated operating margins.

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired
in a business combination is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs, which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition.
2.10.2 Intangible assets
Accounting Policy
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated
amortization and impairment. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line
basis, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on a number
of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry
and known technological advances), and the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the
asset. Amortization methods and useful lives are reviewed periodically including at each financial year end.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Software product
development costs are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated, future economic
benefits are probable, the group has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the costs can be measured reliably.
The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labour, overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing
the asset for its intended use.
Impairment
Intangible assets are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment
to be recognized in net profit in the statement of comprehensive income is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets
exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in net profit in the statement of comprehensive
income if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased
to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net
of any accumulated amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.
2.11 Business combinations
Accounting policy
Business combinations have been accounted for using
the acquisition method under the provisions of IFRS 3 (Revised), Business Combinations.
The purchase price in an acquisition is measured at
the fair value of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of acquisition, which
is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. The purchase price also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their
fair value on the date of acquisition. Contingent consideration is remeasured at fair value at each reporting date and changes in the
fair value of the contingent consideration are recognized in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The interest of non-controlling shareholders is initially
measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net
assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount
of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’ share of
subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries.
Business combinations between entities under common
control is outside the scope of IFRS 3 (Revised), Business Combinations and is accounted for at carrying value of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed.
The payments related to options issued by the Group
over the non-controlling interests in its subsidiaries are accounted as financial liabilities and initially recognized at the estimated
present value of gross obligations. Such options are subsequently measured at fair value in order to reflect the amount payable under
the option at the date at which it becomes exercisable. In the event that the option expires unexercised, the liability is derecognized.
Transaction costs that the Group incurs in connection
with a business combination such as finder’s fees, legal fees, due diligence fees, and other professional and consulting fees are
expensed as incurred.
2.12 Employees' Stock Option Plans (ESOP)
Accounting Policy
The Group recognizes compensation expense relating
to share-based payments in net profit based on estimated fair-values of the awards on the grant date. The estimated fair value of awards
is recognized as an expense in net profit in the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis
over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was in-substance, multiple awards with
a corresponding increase to share premium.

The fair value of the awards are estimated using the
Black-Scholes Model for time and non-market performance based options and Monte Carlo simulation model is used for TSR based options.
The inputs to the model include the share price at
date of grant, exercise price, expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term and the risk free rate of interest. Expected volatility
during the expected term of the options is based on historical volatility of the observed market prices of the Company's publicly traded
equity shares during a period equivalent to the expected term of the options. Expected volatility of the comparative company have been
modelled based on historical movements in the market prices of their publicly traded equity shares during a period equivalent to the expected
term of the options. Correlation coefficient is calculated between each peer entity and the indices as a whole or between each entity
in the peer group.
The fair value of each equity settled award is estimated
on the date of grant using the following assumptions:

2.13 Income Taxes
Accounting policy
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred income
tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive income except to
the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity or other comprehensive income.
Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities,
using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred income tax assets
and liabilities are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying
amounts in the financial statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or
liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of
the transaction. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that
the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured
using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of changes in tax rates on
deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment or the substantive
enactment date. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Deferred income taxes are not provided on the undistributed
earnings of subsidiaries and branches where it is expected that the earnings of the subsidiary or branch will not be distributed in the
foreseeable future.
The Group offsets current tax assets and current tax
liabilities; deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts
and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The income tax
provision for the interim period is made based on the best estimate of the annual average tax rate expected to be applicable for the full
financial year. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are
credited to equity.

Income tax expense for the three months ended June
30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 includes reversals (net of provisions) of
15 crore and provisions (net of reversals) of
35 crore,
respectively. These provisions and reversals pertaining to prior periods are primarily on account of adjudication of certain disputed
matters, upon filing of tax return and completion of assessments, across various jurisdictions.
Deferred income tax for the three months ended June
30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 substantially relates to origination and reversal of temporary differences.
The Company’s Advanced Pricing Arrangement (APA)
with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for US branch income tax expired in March 2021. The Company has applied for renewal of APA and
currently the US taxable income is based on the Company’s best estimate determined based on the expected value method.
As at June 30, 2023, claims against the Group not acknowledged
as debts from the Income tax authorities amounted to
4,066 crore.
As at March 31, 2023, claims against the Group not
acknowledged as debts from the Income tax authorities amounted to
4,062 crore.
The amount paid to statutory authorities against the
tax claims amounted to
6,498 crore and
6,528 crore as at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
The claims against the group primarily represent demands
arising on completion of assessment proceedings under the Income Tax Act, 1961. These claims are on account of multiple issues of disallowances
such as disallowance of profits earned from STP Units and SEZ Units, disallowance of deductions in respect of employment of new employees
under section 80JJAA, disallowance of expenditure towards software being held as capital in nature, payments made to Associated Enterprises
held as liable for withholding of taxes. These matters are pending before various Income Tax Authorities and the management including
its tax advisors expect that its position will likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material adverse effect on
the Group's financial position and results of operations.
2.14 Basic and diluted shares used in computing
earnings per equity share
Accounting Policy
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing
the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Group by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Group by the
weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number
of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares
are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the
outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as at the beginning of the period, unless issued at
a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive
equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes
effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.

2.16 Segment reporting
IFRS 8 Operating Segments establishes standards for
the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The Group's operations predominantly relate to providing end-to-end business solutions to enable
clients to enhance business performance. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) evaluates the Group's performance and allocates resources
based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly, information has been presented along business
segments. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and
expenditure in individual segments, and are as set out in the accounting policies.
Business segments of the Group are primarily enterprises
in Financial Services and Insurance, enterprises in Manufacturing, enterprises in Retail, Consumer Packaged Goods and Logistics, enterprises
in the Energy, Utilities, Resources and Services, enterprises in Communication, Telecom OEM and Media, enterprises in Hi-Tech, enterprises
in Life Sciences and Healthcare and all other segments. The Financial services reportable segments has been aggregated to include the
Financial Services operating segment and Finacle operating segment because of the similarity of the economic characteristics. All other
segments represents the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan, China, Infosys Public Services & other enterprises in Public
Services.
Revenue and identifiable operating expenses in relation
to segments are categorized based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment. Revenue for 'all other segments' represents
revenue generated by Infosys Public Services and revenue generated from customers located in India, Japan and China and other enterprises
in Public services. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services from the Group's offshore software
development centers and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated efforts of the segment. Certain expenses
such as depreciation and amortization, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically allocable to specific
segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. The Management believes that it is not practical to provide segment disclosures
relating to those costs and expenses, and accordingly these expenses are separately disclosed as "unallocated" and adjusted
against the total income of the Group.
Assets and liabilities used in the Group's business
are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The Management believes that
it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation
of the available data is onerous.
Business segment revenue information is collated based
on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.
Disclosure of revenue by geographic locations is given
in note 2.17 Revenue from operations.

No client individually accounted for more than 10%
of the revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.
2.17 Revenue from Operations
Accounting Policy:
The Group derives revenues primarily from IT services
comprising software development and related services, cloud and infrastructure services, maintenance, consulting and package implementation,
licensing of software products and platforms across the Group’s core and digital offerings (together called as “software related
services”) and business process management services. Contracts with customers are either on a time-and-material, unit of work, fixed-price
or on a fixed-timeframe basis.
Revenues from customer contracts are considered for
recognition and measurement when the contract has been approved in writing by the parties, to the contract, the parties to contract are
committed to perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. Revenue is recognized upon
transfer of control of promised products or services (“performance obligations”) to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration the Group has received or expects to receive in exchange for these products or services (“transaction price”).
When there is uncertainty as to collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved.
The Group assesses the services promised in a contract
and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. The Group allocates the transaction price to each distinct performance
obligation based on the relative standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the
best evidence of its standalone selling price. In the absence of such evidence, the primary method used to estimate standalone selling
price is the expected cost plus a margin, under which the Group estimates the cost of satisfying the performance obligation and then adds
an appropriate margin based on similar services.
The Group’s contracts may include variable consideration
including rebates, volume discounts and penalties. The Group includes variable consideration as part of transaction price when there is
a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the variable consideration and when it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative
revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.
Revenue on time-and-material and unit of work based
contracts, are recognized as the related services are performed. Fixed price maintenance revenue is recognized ratably either on a straight-line
basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period or ratably using a percentage
of completion method when the pattern of benefits from the services rendered to the customer and Group’s costs to fulfil the contract
is not even through the period of contract because the services are generally discrete in nature and not repetitive. Revenue from other
fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time is recognized using the percentage-of-completion
method. Efforts or costs expended are used to determine progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and
productivity. Progress towards completion is measured as the ratio of costs or efforts incurred to date (representing work performed)
to the estimated total costs or efforts. Estimates of transaction price and total costs or efforts are continuously monitored over the
term of the contracts and are recognized in net profit in the period when these estimates change or when the estimates are revised. Revenues
and the estimated total costs or efforts are subject to revision as the contract progresses. Provisions for estimated losses, if any,
on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete
the contract.
The billing schedules agreed with customers include
periodic performance based billing and / or milestone based progress billings. Revenues in excess of billing are classified as unbilled
revenue while billing in excess of revenues are classified as contract liabilities (which we refer to as unearned revenues).
In arrangements for software development and related
services and maintenance services, by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct performance obligation, the arrangements
with customers generally meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as distinct performance obligations.
For allocating the transaction price, the Group measures the revenue in respect of each performance obligation of a contract at its relative
standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence of its standalone
selling price. In cases where the Group is unable to determine the standalone selling price, the Group uses the expected cost plus margin
approach in estimating the standalone selling price. For software development and related services, the performance obligations are satisfied
as and when the services are rendered since the customer generally obtains control of the work as it progresses.
Certain cloud and infrastructure services contracts
include multiple elements which may be subject to other specific accounting guidance, such as leasing guidance. These contracts are accounted
in accordance with such specific accounting guidance. In such arrangements where the Group is able to determine that hardware and services
are distinct performance obligations, it allocates the consideration to these performance obligations on a relative standalone selling
price basis. In the absence of standalone selling price, the Group uses the expected cost-plus margin approach in estimating the standalone
selling price. When such arrangements are considered as a single performance obligation, revenue is recognized over the period and measure
of progress is determined based on promise in the contract.
Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains a
“right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the license is made available to the customer. Revenue from licenses
where the customer obtains a “right to access” is recognized over the access period.
Arrangements to deliver software products generally
have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS). When implementation services are provided in conjunction
with the licensing arrangement and the license and implementation have been identified as two distinct separate performance obligations,
the transaction price for such contracts are allocated to each performance obligation of the contract based on their relative standalone
selling prices. In the absence of standalone selling price for implementation, the Group uses the expected cost plus margin approach in
estimating the standalone selling price. Where the license is required to be substantially customized as part of the implementation service
the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation is considered to be a single performance obligation and the revenue is recognized
using the percentage-of-completion method as the implementation is performed. Revenue from client training, support and other services
arising due to the sale of software products is recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied. ATS revenue is recognized ratably
on a straight line basis over the period in which the services are rendered.
Contracts with customers includes subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Group is acting as an agent between the customer and
the vendor, and gross when the Group is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the group first evaluates whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Group considers whether it has the primary obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service and therefore is
acting as a principal or an agent.
The incremental costs of obtaining a contract (i.e.,
costs that would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained) are recognized as an asset if the Group expects to recover
them.
Certain eligible, nonrecurring costs (e.g. set-up or
transition or transformation costs) that do not represent a separate performance obligation are recognized as an asset when such costs
(a) relate directly to the contract; (b) generate or enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying the performance obligation
in the future; and (c) are expected to be recovered.
Capitalized contract costs relating to upfront payments
to customers are amortized to revenue and other capitalized costs are amortized to cost of sales over the respective contract life on
a systematic basis consistent with the transfer of goods or services to customer to which the asset relates. Capitalized costs are monitored
regularly for impairment. Impairment losses are recorded when present value of projected remaining operating cash flows is not sufficient
to recover the carrying amount of the capitalized costs.
The Group presents revenues net of indirect taxes in
its Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

The percentage of revenue from fixed-price contracts
for each of the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 is 52%.
Trade Receivables and Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash
collections results in receivables, unbilled revenue, and unearned revenue on the Group’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Amounts are
billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., monthly or quarterly)
or upon achievement of contractual milestones.
The Group’s Receivables are rights to consideration
that are unconditional. Unbilled revenues comprising revenues in excess of billings from time and material contracts and fixed price maintenance
contracts are classified as financial asset when the right to consideration is unconditional and is due only after a passage of time.
Invoicing to the clients for other fixed price contracts
is based on milestones as defined in the contract and therefore the timing of revenue recognition is different from the timing of invoicing
to the customers. Therefore unbilled revenues for other fixed price contracts (contract asset) are classified as non-financial asset because
the right to consideration is dependent on completion of contractual milestones.
Invoicing in excess of earnings are classified as unearned
revenue.
Trade receivables and unbilled revenues are presented
net of impairment in the consolidated statement of balance sheet.

costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares, share options and buyback are recognized as a deduction from equity,
net of any tax effects.
Treasury Shares
When any entity within the Group purchases the company's
ordinary shares, the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost is presented as a deduction from total equity,
until they are cancelled, sold or reissued. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized
as an increase in equity, and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is transferred to/ from Share premium.
Description of reserves
Retained earnings

earnings of the Group.
Share premium
The amount received in excess of the par value of equity
shares has been classified as share premium. Additionally, share-based compensation recognized in net profit in the interim condensed
consolidated statement of comprehensive income is credited to share premium. Amounts have been utilized for bonus issue and share buyback
from share premium account.
Special Economic Zone Re-investment reserve

been created out of the profit of the eligible SEZ unit in terms of the provisions of Sec 10AA (1)(ii) of Income Tax Act, 1961. The reserve
should be utilized by the Company for acquiring new plant and machinery for the purpose of its business in terms of the provisions of
the Sec 10AA (2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Capital Redemption Reserve
In accordance with section 69 of the Indian Companies
Act, 2013, the Company creates capital redemption reserve equal to the nominal value of the shares bought back as an appropriation from
general reserve / retained earnings.
Other components of equity

re-measurement of net defined benefit liability/asset, fair value changes of equity instruments fair valued through other comprehensive
income, changes on fair valuation of investments, net of taxes.
Cash flow hedge reserve
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging
instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated
in the cash flow hedging reserve. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to
the net profit in the interim condensed consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction.
2.19.1 Dividend
The final dividend on shares is recorded as a liability
on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company's
Board of Directors. Income tax consequences of dividends on financial instruments classified as equity will be recognized according to
where the entity originally recognized those past transactions or events that generated distributable profits.
The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees.
Companies are required to pay / distribute dividend after deducting applicable taxes. The remittance of dividends outside India is governed
by Indian law on foreign exchange and is also subject to withholding tax at applicable rates.

17.50/- per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2023. The same was approved
by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Company held on June 28, 2023 which will result in a net cash outflow of
7,242 crore, excluding dividend paid on treasury shares. Payment date for the dividend is July 3, 2023.
2.19.2 Capital allocation policy
Effective fiscal 2020, the company expects to return
approximately 85% of the free cash flow cumulatively over a 5-year period through a combination of semi-annual dividends and/or share
buyback and/or special dividends, subject to applicable laws and requisite approvals, if any. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided
by operating activities less capital expenditure as per the consolidated statement of cash flows prepared under IFRS. Dividend and buyback
include applicable taxes.
The Company’s objective when managing capital
is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximize shareholder
value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividend payment, return capital
to shareholders, issue new shares or buy back issued shares. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has only one class of equity shares and
has no debt. Consequent to the above capital structure there are no externally imposed capital requirements.
2.19.3 Share capital and share premium
The Company has only one class of shares referred to
as equity shares having a par value of
5/- each. 11,738,357 shares and 12,172,119 shares were held by controlled trust, as at June
30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
2.20 Break-up of expenses and other income, net
a. Accounting policy
Gratuity and Pensions
The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit
retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees majorly of Infosys and its Indian subsidiaries. The Gratuity Plan provides
a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective
employee's salary and the tenure of employment with the Group. The Company contributes Gratuity liabilities to the Infosys Limited Employees'
Gratuity Fund Trust (the Trust). In case of Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPM Employees' Gratuity Fund
Trust and EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively. Trustees administer contributions made to the Trusts
and contributions are invested in a scheme with the Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by Indian law.
The Group operates defined benefit pension plan in
certain overseas jurisdictions, in accordance with the local laws. These plans are managed by third party fund managers. The plans provide
for periodic payouts after retirement and/or a lumpsum payment as set out in rules of each fund and includes death and disability benefits.
The defined benefit plans require contributions which are based on a percentage of salary that varies depending on the age of the respective
employees.
Liabilities with regard to these defined benefit plans
are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit credit
method. These defined benefit plans expose the Group to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, interest rate risk and market risk.
The Group recognizes the net obligation of a defined
benefit plan in its Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability
/ (asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods. The actual return
of the portfolio of plan assets, in excess of the yields computed by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation
is recognized in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments is recognized in net profit in the Consolidated Statement
of Comprehensive Income.
Provident fund
Eligible employees of Infosys receive benefits from
a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the eligible employee and the Company make monthly contributions to the provident
fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. The Company contributes a portion to the Infosys Limited Employees'
Provident Fund Trust. The trust invests in specific designated instruments as permitted by Indian law. The remaining portion is contributed
to the government administered pension fund. The rate at which the annual interest is payable to the beneficiaries by the trust is being
administered by the Government of India. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall, if any, between the return from the
investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
In respect of Indian subsidiaries, eligible employees
receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the eligible employee and the respective companies
make monthly contributions to this provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. Amounts collected
under the provident fund plan are deposited in a government administered provident fund. The Companies have no further obligation to the
plan beyond its monthly contributions.
Superannuation
Certain employees of Infosys, Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve
are participants in a defined contribution plan. The Group has no further obligations to the plan beyond its monthly contributions which
are periodically contributed to a trust fund, the corpus of which is invested with the Life Insurance Corporation of India.
Compensated absences
The Group has a policy on compensated absences which
are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined by actuarial
valuation performed by an independent actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the additional amount expected
to be paid/availed as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date. Expense on non-accumulating compensated
absences is recognized in the period in which the absences occur.
The Code on Social Security, 2020 (‘Code’)
relating to employee benefits during employment and post-employment benefits received Presidential assent in September 2020. The Code
has been published in the Gazette of India. However, the date on which the entire Code will come into effect has not been notified. The
Company will assess the impact of the Code when it comes into effect in entirety and will record any related impact in the period the
Code becomes effective.
Other income, net
Accounting policy
Other income is comprised primarily of interest income,
dividend income, gain/loss on investment and exchange gain/loss on forward and options contracts and on translation of foreign currency
assets and liabilities. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right
to receive payment is established.
Foreign currency
Accounting policy
Functional currency
The functional currency of Infosys, Infosys BPM, EdgeVerve
and Skava and controlled trusts is the Indian rupee. The functional currencies for foreign subsidiaries are their respective local currencies.
These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (rounded off to crore; one crore equals ten million).
Transactions and translations
Foreign-currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities
are translated into the relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the Balance Sheet date. The gains or losses resulting
from such translations are recognized in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and reported within exchange
gains/ (losses) on translation of assets and liabilities, net, except when deferred in Other Comprehensive Income as qualifying cash flow
hedges. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at
the exchange rate prevalent at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated
in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction. The related
revenue and expense are recognized using the same exchange rate.
Transaction gains or losses realized upon settlement
of foreign currency transactions are included in determining net profit for the period in which the transaction is settled. Revenue, expense
and cash-flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the relevant functional currencies using the exchange rate in
effect on the date of the transaction.
The translation of financial statements of the foreign
subsidiaries to the presentation currency is performed for assets and liabilities using the exchange rate in effect at the Balance Sheet
date and for revenue, expense and cash-flow items using the average exchange rate for the respective periods. The gains or losses resulting
from such translation are included in currency translation reserves under other components of equity. When a subsidiary is disposed off,
in full, the relevant amount is transferred to net profit in the statement of comprehensive income. However when a change in the parent's
ownership does not result in loss of control of a subsidiary, such changes are recorded through equity.
Other Comprehensive Income, net of taxes includes translation
differences on non-monetary financial assets measured at fair value at the reporting date, such as equities classified as financial instruments
and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the
acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the exchange rate in effect
at the Balance Sheet date.
Government grants
The Group recognizes government grants only when there
is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to them will be complied with, and the grants will be received. Government grants
related to assets are treated as deferred income and are recognized in the net profit in the statement of comprehensive income on a systematic
and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Government grants related to revenue are recognized on a systematic basis in the
statement of comprehensive income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate.
Operating Profits
Operating profit of the Group is computed considering
the revenues, net of cost of sales, selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses.

Ind AS Standalone
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
INFOSYS LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Interim Condensed
Standalone Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying interim condensed
standalone financial statements of INFOSYS LIMITED (the “Company”), which comprise the Condensed Balance Sheet as at
June 30, 2023, the Condensed Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Condensed Statement of Changes in
Equity and the Condensed Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended on that date, and a summary of the significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as the “interim condensed standalone financial statements”).
In our opinion and to the best of our information
and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid interim condensed standalone financial statements give a true and fair view
in conformity with Indian Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“Ind AS 34”) prescribed under
section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”), read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles
generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at June 30, 2023 and its profit, total comprehensive income, changes
in equity and its cash flows for the three months ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the interim condensed
standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (“SA”s) specified under section 143 (10) of the
Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Interim
Condensed Standalone Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant
to our audit of the interim condensed standalone financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and
we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe
that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the interim condensed
standalone financial statements.
Responsibilities of Management and Those
Charged with Governance for the Interim Condensed Standalone Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible
for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the
financial position, financial performance, including total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance
with Ind AS 34 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate
accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting
frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are
reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively
for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the interim condensed
standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the interim condensed standalone financial
statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable,
matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Board of Directors either intends to liquidate
the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing
the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Interim Condensed Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the interim condensed standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud
or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is
not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence
the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these interim condensed standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
| · | Identify and assess the risks
of material misstatement of the interim condensed standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit
procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. |
| · | Obtain an understanding of internal
financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on effectiveness of such controls. |
| · | Evaluate the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. |
| · | Conclude on the appropriateness
of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures
in the interim condensed standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions
are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause
the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. |
| · | Evaluate the overall presentation,
structure and content of the interim condensed standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the interim condensed
standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements
in the interim condensed standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions
of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the interim condensed standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to
evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the interim condensed standalone financial statements.
We also communicate with those charged with governance
regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any significant deficiencies
in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with
a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships
and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

has its primary listings on the BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The Company’s American Depositary Shares
(ADS) representing equity shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The interim condensed standalone financial statements
are approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on July 20, 2023.
1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements
These interim condensed standalone financial statements
are prepared in compliance with Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting, under the historical cost convention
on accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013
(''the Act'') and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Accordingly, these interim condensed standalone
financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements. These interim condensed standalone
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the standalone financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s
Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2023. The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment rules issued thereafter.
Accounting policies have been consistently applied
except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change
in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
The material accounting policy information used in preparation of the audited condensed standalone
interim financial statements have been discussed in the respective notes.
1.3 Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of the interim condensed standalone
financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires the management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates,
judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim condensed standalone financial statements and reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the period. The application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving complex and
subjective judgments and the use of assumptions in these financial statements have been disclosed in Note no. 1.4. Accounting estimates
could change from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management
becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates and judgements are reflected in the interim
condensed standalone financial statements in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the
notes to the interim condensed standalone financial statements.
1.4 Critical accounting estimates and judgments
a. Revenue recognition
The Company’s contracts with customers include
promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Revenues from customer contracts are considered for recognition and
measurement when the contract has been approved, in writing, by the parties to the contract, the parties to contract are committed to
perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. The Company assesses the services promised
in a contract and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct performance obligations to determine
the deliverables and the ability of the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables, and allocation of transaction price
to these distinct performance obligations involves significant judgement.
Fixed price maintenance revenue is recognized ratably
on a straight-line basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period. Revenue
from fixed price maintenance contract is recognized ratably using a percentage of completion method when the pattern of benefits from
the services rendered to the customer and Company’s costs to fulfil the contract is not even through the period of the contract
because the services are generally discrete in nature and not repetitive. The use of method to recognize the maintenance revenues requires
judgment and is based on the promises in the contract and nature of the deliverables.
The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method
in accounting for other fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the Company to determine the actual
efforts or costs expended to date as a proportion of the estimated total efforts or costs to be incurred. Efforts or costs expended have
been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. The estimation of total
efforts or costs involves significant judgement and is assessed throughout the period of the contract to reflect any changes based on
the latest available information.
Contracts with customers includes subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Company is acting as an agent between the customer
and the vendor, and gross when the Company is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the Company first evaluates whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Company considers whether it has the primary obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service and therefore, is
acting as a principal or an agent.
Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete
contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract.
b. Income taxes
The Company's two major tax jurisdictions are India
and the United States, though the Company also files tax returns in other overseas jurisdictions.Significant judgments are involved in
determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions.
In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax
assets, Management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization
of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences
become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable
income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, management believes that the company will realize the
benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced
in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced. (Refer to note 2.17)
c. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment represent a significant
proportion of the asset base of the Company. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of
an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of
Company's assets are determined by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial
year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact
their life, such as changes in technology. (Refer to note 2.1)
2. Notes to the Interim Condensed Standalone Financial
Statements
2.1 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Accounting Policy
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less
accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant
and equipment are ready for use, as intended by the Management. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived at after determining
an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The Company depreciates property,
plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:
Building(1) |
22-25 years |
Plant and machinery(1) |
5 years |
Office equipment |
5 years |
Computer equipment(1) |
3-5 years |
Furniture and fixtures(1) |
5 years |
Vehicles(1) |
5 years |
Leasehold improvements |
Lower of useful life of the asset or lease term |
(1) Based on technical evaluation, the
Management believes that the useful lives as given above best represent the period over which Management expects to use these assets.
Hence, the useful lives for these assets is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies
Act 2013.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values
are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The useful lives are based on historical experience with similar assets
as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.
Advances paid towards the acquisition of property,
plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets and the cost
of assets not ready to use before such date are disclosed under ‘Capital work-in-progress’. Subsequent expenditures relating
to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow
to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the
financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset.
Impairment
Property, plant and equipment are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment
to be recognized in the condensed Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds
the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the condensed Statement of Profit and Loss if there has
been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised
recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated
depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

and equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 are as follows:

2.2.2 Intangible Assets:
Accounting Policy
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated
amortization and impairment. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line
basis, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on a number
of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry,
and known technological advances), and the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the
asset. Amortization methods and useful lives are reviewed periodically including at each financial year end.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Software product
development costs are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated, future economic
benefits are probable, the Company has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the costs can be measured
reliably. The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labor, overhead costs that are directly attributable
to prepare the asset for its intended use.
2.3 LEASES
Accounting Policy
The Company as a lessee
The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist
of leases for land, buildings and computers. The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract
is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange
for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:
(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the
asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company
recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee,
except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases,
the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
As a lessee, the Company determines the lease term
as the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate the lease, if the use of such option is reasonably
certain. The Company makes an assessment on the expected lease term on a lease-by-lease basis and thereby assesses whether it is reasonably
certain that any options to extend or terminate the contract will be exercised. In evaluating the lease term, the Company considers factors
such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the termination of the lease and the
importance of the underlying asset to Infosys’s operations taking into account the location of the underlying asset and the availability
of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods is reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the current economic circumstances.
Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend
or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably
certain that they will be exercised.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at
cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date
of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement
date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. Right-of-use assets are evaluated
for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose
of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined
on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In
such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized
cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease
or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are
remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will
exercise an extension or a termination option. Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease
payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
The Company as a lessor
Leases for which the Company is a lessor is classified
as a finance or operating lease. Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the
lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
When the Company is an intermediate lessor, it accounts
for its interests in the head lease and the sublease separately. The sublease is classified as a finance or operating lease by reference
to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease.
For operating leases, rental income is recognized on
a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

2.11 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Accounting Policy
2.11.1 Initial recognition
The Company recognizes financial assets and financial
liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized
at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, which are not at fair value
through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted
for at trade date.
2.11.2 Subsequent measurement
a. Non-derivative financial instruments
(i) Financial assets carried at amortized cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized
cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual
terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets carried at fair value through
other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual
cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that
are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Company has made an irrevocable election for its
investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income based
on its business model.
(iii) Financial assets carried at fair value
through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of
the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized
cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration recognized in a business combination which is subsequently
measured at fair value through profit or loss.
(v) Investment in subsidiaries
Investment in subsidiaries is carried at cost in the
separate financial statements.
b. Derivative financial instruments
The Company holds derivative financial instruments
such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures.
The counterparty for such contracts is generally a bank.
(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities,
carried at fair value through profit or loss.
This category includes derivative financial assets
or liabilities which are not designated as hedges.
Although the Company believes that these derivatives
constitute hedges from an economic perspective, they may not qualify for hedge accounting under Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments. Any
derivative that is either not designated as hedge, or is so designated but is ineffective as per Ind AS 109, is categorized as a financial
asset or financial liability, at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized
initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss when incurred.
Subsequent to initial recognition, these derivatives are measured at fair value through profit or loss and the resulting exchange gains
or losses are included in other income. Assets/ liabilities in this category are presented as current assets/current liabilities if they
are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the Balance Sheet date.
(ii) Cash flow hedge
The Company designates certain foreign exchange forward
and options contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative
is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the
fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in the net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss. If the hedging instrument
no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires
or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedge reserve till
the period the hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedge reserve until the forecasted transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or
loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedge reserve is transferred to the net profit in the condensed Statement of Profit and Loss
upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount
accumulated in cash flow hedge reserve is reclassified to net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.11.3 Derecognition of financial instruments
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the
contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for
derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company's Balance
Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
2.11.4 Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments,
the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date. The
methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing model, market multiples, available quoted market
prices and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually
be realized.
Refer to table 'Financial instruments by category'
below for the disclosure on carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets and liabilities maturing
within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to
the short maturity of these instruments.
2.11.5 Impairment
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected
credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets and unbilled revenues which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance
for trade receivables and unbilled revenues with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For
all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant
increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The Company determines the allowance
for credit losses based on historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions. The Company
considers current and anticipated future economic conditions relating to industries the Company deals with and the countries where it
operates.The amount of ECLs (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required
to be recorded is recognized as an impairment loss or gain in statement of profit and loss.

During the year ended March 31, 2023, tax free bonds
and government securities of
383 crore were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 of fair value hierarchy since these were valued
based on quoted price. Further non-convertible debentures of
1,611 crore were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 of fair value
hierarchy, since these were valued based on market observable inputs.

based on Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. These investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units, target maturity fund units,
tax free bonds, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, treasury bills, government securities, quoted bonds issued by government and
quasi-government organizations and non-convertible debentures. The Company invests after considering counterparty risks based on multiple
criteria including Tier I capital, Capital Adequacy Ratio, Credit Rating, Profitability, NPA levels and Deposit base of banks and financial
institutions. These risks are monitored regularly as per Company's risk management program.

The fair value of the awards are estimated using the
Black-Scholes Model for time and non-market performance-based options and Monte Carlo simulation model is used for TSR based options.The
inputs to the model include the share price at date of grant, exercise price, expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term and
the risk free rate of interest. Expected volatility during the expected term of the options is based on historical volatility of the observed
market prices of the Company's publicly traded equity shares during a period equivalent to the expected term of the options. Expected
volatility of the comparative company have been modelled based on historical movements in the market prices of their publicly traded equity
shares during a period equivalent to the expected term of the options. Correlation coefficient is calculated between each peer entity
and the indices as a whole or between each entity in the peer group.
The fair value of each equity settled award is estimated
on the date of grant using the following assumptions:

as distinct goods or services and the control related to the assets is not transferred to the Company in accordance with Ind AS 115 -
Revenue from contract with customers. Accordingly, the same has been considered as a reduction to the total contract value and accounted
as Deferred contract cost. The Company has entered into a financing arrangement with a third party for these assets which has been considered
as financial liability. As at June 30, 2023, the financial liability pertaining to such arrangements amounts to
92 crore.

2.16 PROVISIONS
Accounting Policy
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past
event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that is reasonably estimable, and it is probable that an outflow of
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at
a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
a. Post-sales client support
The Company provides its clients with a fixed-period
post sales support on its fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts. Costs associated with such support services are accrued at the time
related revenues are recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The Company estimates such costs based on historical experience and
estimates are reviewed on a periodic basis for any material changes in assumptions and likelihood of occurrence.
b. Onerous contracts
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized when
the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting the future obligations
under the contract. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become
probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the lower
of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established,
the Company recognizes any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

2.17 INCOME TAXES
Accounting Policy
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred income
tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent that it relates to items
recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity or other comprehensive income. Current income tax for current
and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax
laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized
for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax
benefit will be realized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured
using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of changes in tax rates on
deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment or the substantive
enactment date. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Deferred income taxes are not provided on the undistributed
earnings of subsidiaries and branches where it is expected that the earnings of the subsidiary or branch will not be distributed in the
foreseeable future.
The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities; deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities,
where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to
realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The income tax provision for the interim period is made based on the best estimate
of the annual average tax rate expected to be applicable for the full financial year. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of
employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are credited to equity.

46 crore and provisions (net of reversals) of
19 crore,
respectively. These provisions and reversals pertaining to prior periods are primarily on account of adjudication of certain disputed
matters, upon filing of tax return and completion of assessments, across various jurisdictions.
Deferred income tax for the three months June 30, 2023
and June 30, 2022 substantially relates to origination and reversal of temporary differences.
The Company’s Advanced Pricing Arrangement (APA)
with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for US branch income tax expired in March 2021. The Company has applied for renewal of APA and
currently the US taxable income is based on the Company’s best estimate determined based on the expected value method.
2.18 REVENUE FROM OPERATIONS
Accounting Policy
The Company derives revenues primarily from IT services
comprising software development and related services, cloud and infrastructure services, maintenance, consulting and package implementation,
licensing of software products and platforms across the Company’s core and digital offerings (together called as “software
related services”). Contracts with customers are either on a time-and-material, unit of work, fixed-price or on a fixed-timeframe
basis.
Revenues from customer contracts are considered for
recognition and measurement when the contract has been approved in writing, by the parties, to the contract, the parties to contract are
committed to perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. Revenue is recognized upon
transfer of control of promised products or services (“performance obligations”) to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration the Company has received or expects to receive in exchange for these products or services (“transaction price”).
When there is uncertainty as to collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved.
The Company assesses the services promised in a contract
and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct performance
obligation based on the relative standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the
best evidence of its standalone selling price. In the absence of such evidence, the primary method used to estimate standalone selling
price is the expected cost plus a margin, under which the Company estimates the cost of satisfying the performance obligation and then
adds an appropriate margin based on similar services
The Company’s contracts may include variable
consideration including rebates, volume discounts and penalties. The Company includes variable consideration as part of transaction price
when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the variable consideration and when it is probable that a significant reversal
of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.
Revenue on time-and-material and unit of work based
contracts, are recognized as the related services are performed. Fixed price maintenance revenue is recognized ratably either on a straight-line
basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period or ratably using a percentage
of completion method when the pattern of benefits from the services rendered to the customer and Company’s costs to fulfil the contract
is not even through the period of contract because the services are generally discrete in nature and not repetitive. Revenue from other
fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time is recognized using the percentage-of-completion
method. Efforts or costs expended are used to determine progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and
productivity. Progress towards completion is measured as the ratio of costs or efforts incurred to date (representing work performed)
to the estimated total costs or efforts. Estimates of transaction price and total costs or efforts are continuously monitored over the
term of the contracts and are recognized in net profit in the period when these estimates change or when the estimates are revised. Revenues
and the estimated total costs or efforts are subject to revision as the contract progresses. Provisions for estimated losses, if any,
on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete
the contract.
The billing schedules agreed with customers include
periodic performance based billing and / or milestone based progress billings. Revenues in excess of billing are classified as unbilled
revenue while billing in excess of revenues are classified as contract liabilities (which we refer to as "unearned revenues").
In arrangements for software development and related
services and maintenance services, by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct performance obligation, the arrangements
with customers generally meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as distinct performance obligations.
For allocating the transaction price, the Company measures the revenue in respect of each performance obligation of a contract at its
relative standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence of its standalone
selling price. In cases where the Company is unable to determine the standalone selling price, the Company uses the expected cost plus
margin approach in estimating the standalone selling price. For software development and related services, the performance obligations
are satisfied as and when the services are rendered since the customer generally obtains control of the work as it progresses.
Certain cloud and infrastructure services contracts
include multiple elements which may be subject to other specific accounting guidance, such as leasing guidance. These contracts are accounted
in accordance with such specific accounting guidance. In such arrangements where the Company is able to determine that hardware and services
are distinct performance obligations, it allocates the consideration to these performance obligations on a relative standalone selling
price basis. In the absence of standalone selling price, the Company uses the expected cost-plus margin approach in estimating the standalone
selling price. When such arrangements are considered as a single performance obligation, revenue is recognized over the period and measure
of progress is determined based on promise in the contract.
Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains a
“right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the license is made available to the customer. Revenue from licenses
where the customer obtains a “right to access” is recognized over the access period.
Arrangements to deliver software products generally
have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS). When implementation services are provided in conjunction
with the licensing arrangement and the license and implementation have been identified as two distinct separate performance obligations,
the transaction price for such contracts are allocated to each performance obligation of the contract based on their relative standalone
selling prices. In the absence of standalone selling price for implementation, the Company uses the expected cost plus margin approach
in estimating the standalone selling price. Where the license is required to be substantially customized as part of the implementation
service the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation is considered to be a single performance obligation and the revenue
is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method as the implementation is performed. Revenue from client training, support and
other services arising due to the sale of software products is recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied. ATS revenue is
recognized ratably on a straight line basis over the period in which the services are rendered.
Contracts with customers includes subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Company is acting as an agent between the customer
and the vendor, and gross when the Company is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the Company first evaluates whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Company considers whether it has the primary obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service and therefore is
acting as a principal or an agent.
The incremental costs of obtaining a contract (i.e.,
costs that would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained) are recognized as an asset if the Company expects to recover
them.
Certain eligible, nonrecurring costs (e.g. set-up or transition or transformation costs) that do not represent a separate performance
obligation are recognized as an asset when such costs (a) relate directly to the contract; (b) generate or enhance resources of the Company
that will be used in satisfying the performance obligation in the future; and (c) are expected to be recovered.
Capitalized contract costs
relating to upfront payments to customers are amortized to revenue and other capitalized costs are amortized to expenses over the respective
contract life on a systematic basis consistent with the transfer of goods or services to customer to which the asset relates. Capitalized
costs are monitored regularly for impairment. Impairment losses are recorded when present value of projected remaining operating cash
flows is not sufficient to recover the carrying amount of the capitalized costs.
The Company presents revenues net of indirect taxes
in its Statement of Profit and Loss.
Revenue from operations for the three months
ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 is as follows:

and platforms including Infosys Applied AI which applies next-generation AI and machine learning.The percentage of revenue from fixed-price
contracts for each of the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 is 55%.
Trade receivables and Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash
collections results in receivables, unbilled revenue, and unearned revenue on the Company’s Balance Sheet. Amounts are billed as
work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., monthly or quarterly) or upon achievement
of contractual milestones.
The Company’s receivables are rights to consideration
that are unconditional. Unbilled revenues comprising revenues in excess of billings from time and material contracts and fixed price maintenance
contracts are classified as financial asset when the right to consideration is unconditional and is due only after a passage of time.
Invoicing to the clients for other fixed price contracts
is based on milestones as defined in the contract and therefore the timing of revenue recognition is different from the timing of invoicing
to the customers. Therefore unbilled revenues for other fixed price contracts (contract asset) are classified as non-financial asset because
the right to consideration is dependent on completion of contractual milestones.
Invoicing in excess of earnings are classified as unearned
revenue.
Trade receivables and unbilled revenues are presented
net of impairment in the Balance Sheet.
2.19 OTHER INCOME, NET
2.19.1 Other income
Accounting Policy
Other income is comprised primarily of interest income,
dividend income, gain / loss on investments and exchange gain/loss on forward and options contracts and on translation of foreign currency
assets and liabilities. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right
to receive payment is established.
2.19.2 Foreign currency
Accounting Policy
Functional currency
The functional currency of the Company is the Indian
rupee. These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (rounded off to crore; one crore equals ten million).
Transactions and translations
Foreign-currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities
are translated into the relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the Balance Sheet date. The gains or losses resulting
from such translations are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and reported within exchange gains/(losses) on translation of
assets and liabilities, net, except when deferred in Other Comprehensive Income as qualifying cash flow hedges. Non-monetary assets and
non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at
the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured
at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of the transaction. The related revenue and expense are recognized
using the same exchange rate.
Transaction gains or losses realized upon settlement
of foreign currency transactions are included in determining net profit for the period in which the transaction is settled. Revenue, expense
and cash-flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the relevant functional currencies using the exchange rate in
effect on the date of the transaction.
Other Comprehensive Income, net of taxes includes translation
differences on non-monetary financial assets measured at fair value at the reporting date, such as equities classified as financial instruments
and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
Government grant
The Company recognizes government grants only when
there is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to them shall be complied with, and the grants will be received. Government
grants related to assets are treated as deferred income and are recognized in the net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a
systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Government grants related to revenue are recognized on a systematic basis
in the net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended
to compensate.

2.20 EXPENSES
Accounting Policy
2.20.1 Gratuity and Pension
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ('the
Gratuity Plan') covering eligible Indian employees of Infosys. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement,
death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee's salary and the tenure of employment
with the Company. The Company contributes Gratuity liabilities to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust (the Trust). Trustees
administer contributions made to the Trusts and contributions are invested in a scheme with the Life Insurance Corporation of India as
permitted by Indian law.
The Company operates defined benefit pension plan in certain overseas jurisdictions,
in accordance with the local laws. These plans are managed by third party fund managers. The plans provide for periodic payouts after
retirement or for a lumpsum payment as set out in rules of each fund and includes death and disability benefits. The defined benefit plans
require contributions which are based on a percentage of salary that varies depending on the age of the respective employees
Liabilities with regard to these defined benefit plans are determined by
actuarial valuation, performed by an external actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit credit method. These defined
benefit plans expose the Company to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, interest rate risk and market risk.
The Company recognizes the net obligation of a defined benefit plan in its
Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability/(asset) are recognized
in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods. The actual return of the portfolio of
plan assets, in excess of the yields computed by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation is recognized
in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments is recognized in net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.20.2 Provident fund
Eligible employees of Infosys receive benefits from a provident fund, which
is a defined benefit plan. Both the eligible employee and the Company make monthly contributions to the provident fund plan equal to a
specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. The Company contributes a portion to the Infosys Limited Employees' Provident Fund
Trust. The trust invests in specific designated instruments as permitted by Indian law. The remaining portion is contributed to the government
administered pension fund. The rate at which the annual interest is payable to the beneficiaries by the trust is being administered by
the Government of India. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall, if any, between the return from the investments of
the Trust and the notified interest rate.
2.20.3 Superannuation
Certain employees of Infosys are participants in a defined contribution
plan. The Company has no further obligations to the Plan beyond its monthly contributions which are periodically contributed to a trust
fund, the corpus of which is invested with the Life Insurance Corporation of India.
2.20.4 Compensated absences
The Company has a policy on compensated absences which are both accumulating
and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined by actuarial valuation performed
by an independent actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the additional amount expected to be paid/availed
as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date. Expense on non-accumulating compensated absences
is recognized in the period in which the absences occur.

2.21 BASIC AND DILUTED SHARES USED IN COMPUTING EARNINGS PER EQUITY SHARE
Accounting Policy
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable
to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of
equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could
have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds
receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares).
Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as at the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential
equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares
are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior
to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.
2.22 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS
Accounting Policy
Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past events and
whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow
of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured
with sufficient reliability.

in respect of income tax matters amounted to 3,964 crore and 3,953
crore, respectively.The claims against the Company primarily represent demands arising on completion of assessment proceedings under
the Income Tax Act, 1961. These claims are on account of multiple issues of disallowances such as disallowance of profits earned from
STP Units and SEZ Units, disallowance of deductions in respect of employment of new employees under section 80JJAA, disallowance of expenditure
towards software being held as capital in nature, payments made to Associated Enterprises held as liable for withholding of taxes. These
matters are pending before various Income Tax Authorities and the management including its tax advisors expect that its position will
likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of
operations. |

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF INFOSYS LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Interim Condensed
Consolidated Financial
Statements
Opinion
We have audited the
accompanying interim condensed
consolidated financial statements of INFOSYS LIMITED (the “Company”), and its subsidiaries (the
Company and its subsidiaries
together referred to as the “Group”), which comprise the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as at June
30, 2023, the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Changes in Equity
and the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended on that date, and a summary of the
significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as the “interim condensed consolidated
financial statements”).
In our opinion and to the best
of our information
and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid interim condensed consolidated financial statements
give a true and fair
view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“Ind AS
34”) prescribed
under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”), read with relevant rules issued thereunder and
other accounting
principles generally accepted in India, of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group as at June 30, 2023, and
their consolidated
profit, their consolidated total comprehensive income, their consolidated changes in equity and their consolidated
cash flows for the
three months ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the
interim condensed
consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (“SA”s) specified under
section 143 (10) of
the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities
for the Audit of the
Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in
accordance with the Code
of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”) together with the ethical
requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements under the provisions of the Act and
the Rules made thereunder,
and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s
Code of Ethics. We
believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion on the interim condensed
consolidated financial statements.
Responsibilities of
Management and Those
Charged with Governance for the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of
Directors is responsible
for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements that give a true
and fair view of the
consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance, consolidated total comprehensive income,
consolidated changes in
equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group in accordance with Ind AS 34 and other accounting principles
generally accepted in India.
The respective Boards of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for maintenance of the
adequate accounting records
in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Group and for preventing and
detecting frauds and other
irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that
are reasonable and prudent;
and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively
for ensuring the accuracy
and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the respective interim
financial statements
that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error which have
been used for the purpose
of preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements by the Directors of the Company, as
aforesaid.
In preparing the interim
condensed consolidated
financial statements, the respective Boards of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for
assessing the ability
of the respective entities to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless the respective Boards of Directors either intend to liquidate their own
respective entities or to cease
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Boards of
Directors of the companies
included in the Group are also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
Auditor’s
Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain
reasonable assurance
about whether the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud
or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance, but is
not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it
exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence
the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in
accordance with SAs, we
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
·
|
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the interim condensed
consolidated financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
obtain audit evidence that
is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud
is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control. |
·
|
Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in
order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
effectiveness of such controls. |
·
|
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management. |
·
|
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern
basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that
may cast significant
doubt on the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty
exists, we are required to
draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements or,
if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence
obtained up to the date of
our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a
going concern. |
·
|
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the interim condensed
consolidated financial
statements, including the disclosures, and whether the interim condensed consolidated financial statements
represent the underlying transactions
and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
·
|
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information
of the entities within
the Group to express an opinion on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. We are responsible
for the direction, supervision
and performance of the audit of financial statements of such entities included in the interim condensed
consolidated financial statements
of which we are independent auditors. |
Materiality is the magnitude of
misstatements in
the interim condensed consolidated financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that
the economic decisions
of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements may be influenced. We
consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our
work; and (ii) to
evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
We communicate with those
charged with governance
of the Company and such other entities included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of which
we are the independent
auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings
including any significant
deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged
with governance with
a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with
them all relationships
and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related
safeguards.

accruals of past or future
operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash
flows. The cash flows from
operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. The Group considers all highly liquid
investments that are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

INFOSYS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Overview and notes to the
Interim Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements
1. Overview
1.1 Company overview
Infosys Limited ('the Company' or
Infosys) provides
consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation digital services, to enable clients to execute strategies
for their digital transformation.
Infosys strategic objective is to build a sustainable organization that remains relevant to the agenda of clients,
while creating growth
opportunities for employees and generating profitable returns for investors. Infosys strategy is to be a navigator
for our clients as
they ideate, plan and execute on their journey to a digital future.
Infosys together with its
subsidiaries and controlled
trusts is hereinafter referred to as "the Group".
The Company is a public limited
company incorporated
and domiciled in India and has its registered office at Electronics city, Hosur Road, Bengaluru 560100, Karnataka,
India. The Company
has its primary listings on the BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The Company’s American
Depositary Shares
(ADS) representing equity shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The Group's interim condensed
consolidated financial
statements are approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on July 20, 2023.
1.2 Basis of preparation of
financial statements
These interim condensed
consolidated financial statements
are prepared in compliance with Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting, under the
historical cost convention
on accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the provisions of the
Companies Act, 2013
('the Act') and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Accordingly, these interim
condensed consolidated
financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements. These
interim condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
included in the Company’s
Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2023. The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with
Rule 3 of the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment rules issued thereafter.
Accounting policies have been
consistently applied
except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting
standard requires a change
in the accounting policy hitherto in use. The material accounting policy information used in preparation of the
audited condensed consolidated
interim financial statements have been discussed in the respective notes.
1.3 Basis of consolidation
Infosys consolidates entities which
it owns or controls.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company, its
controlled trusts and its
subsidiaries. Control exists when the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has rights to variable
returns from its involvement
with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power over the entity. Power is
demonstrated through existing
rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which significantly affect the entity's returns.
Subsidiaries are consolidated
from the date control commences until the date control ceases.
The financial statements of the
Group companies are
consolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-group balances and transactions including unrealized gain / loss from
such transactions
are eliminated upon consolidation. These financial statements are prepared by applying uniform accounting policies
in use at the Group.
Non-controlling interests which represent part of the net profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries that are
not, directly or indirectly,
owned or controlled by the Company, are excluded.
1.4 Use of estimates and
judgments
The preparation of the interim
condensed consolidated
financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires the Management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions.
These estimates,
judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosures
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and
reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the period. The application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates
involving complex and
subjective judgments and the use of assumptions in these financial statements have been disclosed in Note no.
1.5. Accounting estimates
could change from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in
estimates are made as Management
becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates and judgements are
reflected in the interim
condensed consolidated financial statements in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects
are disclosed in the
notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
1.5 Critical accounting
estimates and judgments
a. Revenue recognition
The Group’s contracts with
customers include
promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Revenues from customer contracts are considered
for recognition and
measurement when the contract has been approved, in writing, by the parties to the contract, the parties to contract
are committed to
perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. The Group assesses
the services promised
in a contract and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct
performance obligations to determine
the deliverables and the ability of the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables, and allocation of
transaction price
to these distinct performance obligations involves significant judgment.
Fixed price maintenance revenue is
recognized ratably
on a straight-line basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a
specified period. Revenue
from fixed price maintenance contract is recognized ratably using a percentage of completion method when the pattern
of benefits from
the services rendered to the customer and the Group’s costs to fulfil the contract is not even through the
period of the contract
because the services are generally discrete in nature and not repetitive. The use of method to recognize the
maintenance revenues requires
judgment and is based on the promises in the contract and nature of the deliverables.
The Group uses the
percentage-of-completion method
in accounting for other fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the Group to
determine the actual efforts
or costs expended to date as a proportion of the estimated total efforts or costs to be incurred. Efforts or costs
expended have been
used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. The
estimation of total
efforts or costs involves significant judgment and is assessed throughout the period of the contract to reflect any
changes based on the
latest available information.
Contracts with customers includes
subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of
arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Group is acting as an agent
between the customer and
the vendor, and gross when the Group is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the Group first evaluates
whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Group considers whether it has the primary
obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service
and therefore, is
acting as a principal or an agent.
Provisions for estimated losses, if
any, on incomplete
contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to
complete the contract.
b. Income taxes
The Group's two major tax
jurisdictions are India and
the United States, though the Company also files tax returns in other overseas jurisdictions.
Significant judgments are involved
in determining the
provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid / recovered for uncertain tax positions.
In assessing the realizability of
deferred income tax
assets, the Management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.
The ultimate realization
of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
the temporary differences
become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future
taxable income and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections
for future taxable
income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, the Management believes that the
Group will realize the
benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered realizable,
however, could be reduced
in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced (Refer to
Note 2.16).
c. Business combinations and
intangible assets
Business combinations are accounted
for using Ind AS
103, Business Combinations. Ind AS 103 requires the identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration to
be fair valued in order
to ascertain the fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. These
valuations are conducted
by external valuation experts. Estimates are required to be made in determining the value of contingent
consideration, value of option
arrangements and intangible assets. These measurements are based on information available at the acquisition date
and are based on expectations
and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by the Management (Refer to Note 2.1).
d. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment
represent a significant
proportion of the asset base of the Group. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after
determining an estimate of
an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and
residual values of
Group's assets are determined by the Management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically,
including at each financial
year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events,
which may impact
their life, such as changes in technology (Refer to Note 2.2).
e. Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment
on an annual basis
and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGUs) is less than its
carrying amount. For
the impairment test, goodwill is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs which benefit from the synergies of the
acquisition and which
represent the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
The recoverable amount of CGUs is
determined based
on higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost to sell. Key assumptions in the cash flow projections are
prepared based on current
economic conditions and comprises estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated
operating margins (Refer
to Note 2.3.1).
2.
Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
2.1 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Accounting policy
Business combinations have been
accounted for using
the acquisition method under the provisions of Ind AS 103, Business Combinations.
The purchase price in an
acquisition is measured at
the fair value of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date
of acquisition, which
is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. The purchase price also includes the fair value of any
contingent consideration.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are
measured initially at their
fair value on the date of acquisition. Contingent consideration is remeasured at fair value at each reporting date
and changes in the
fair value of the contingent consideration are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
The interest of non-controlling
shareholders is initially
measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s
identifiable net
assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition,
the carrying amount
of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling
interests’ share of
subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries.
Business combinations between
entities under common
control is accounted for at carrying value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Group's
consolidated financial statements.
The payments related to options
issued by the Group
over the non-controlling interests in its subsidiaries are accounted as financial liabilities and initially
recognized at the estimated
present value of gross obligations. Such options are subsequently measured at fair value in order to reflect the
amount payable under
the option at the date at which it becomes exercisable. In the event that the option expires unexercised, the
liability is derecognized.
Transaction costs that the Group
incurs in connection
with a business combination such as finder’s fees, legal fees, due diligence fees, and other professional and
consulting fees are
expensed as incurred.
2.2 PROPERTY, PLANT AND
EQUIPMENT
Accounting policy
Property, plant and equipment are
stated at cost, less
accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until
the property, plant
and equipment are ready for use, as intended by the Management. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is
derived at after determining
an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The
Group depreciates property,
plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of
assets are as follows:
Buildings (1) |
22-25 years |
Plant and machinery (1)(2) |
5 years |
Office equipment |
5 years |
Computer equipment (1) |
3-5 years |
Furniture and fixtures (1) |
5 years |
Vehicles(1) |
5 years |
Leasehold improvements |
Lower of useful life of the
asset or lease term |
(1) |
|
Based on technical evaluation, the Management believes that the useful lives as
given
above best represent the period over which the Management expects to use these assets. Hence, the useful lives
for these assets is different
from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013 |
(2) |
|
Includes Solar plant with a useful life of 25 years |
Depreciation methods, useful lives
and residual values
are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The useful lives are based on historical experience
with similar assets
as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.
Advances paid towards the
acquisition of property,
plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current
assets and the cost
of assets not ready to use before such date are disclosed under ‘Capital work-in-progress’. Subsequent
expenditures relating
to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated
with these will flow
to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are
eliminated from the
financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset.
Impairment
Property, plant and equipment are
evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the
purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is
determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets.
In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be
impaired, the impairment
to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets
exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss
if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the
asset is increased to
its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined (net of
any accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.
The changes in the carrying value
of property, plant
and equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 are as follows:

2.3 GOODWILL AND OTHER
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
2.3.1 Goodwill
Accounting policy
Goodwill represents the purchase
consideration in excess
of the Group's interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the
acquired entity. When
the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired exceeds purchase
consideration, the fair
value of net assets acquired is reassessed and the bargain purchase gain is recognized in capital reserve. Goodwill
is measured at cost
less accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment
Goodwill is tested for impairment
on an annual basis
and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGU) is less than its
carrying amount. For
the impairment test, goodwill is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs which benefit from the synergies of the
acquisition and which
represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. A CGU is the smallest
identifiable group
of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of
assets. Impairment
occurs when the carrying amount of a CGU including the goodwill, exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the
CGU. The recoverable
amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. Value-in-use is the present
value of future cash
flows expected to be derived from the CGU. Key assumptions in the cash flow projections are prepared based on
current economic conditions
and includes estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated operating margins.
Following is a summary of changes
in the carrying amount
of goodwill:

For the purpose of impairment
testing, goodwill acquired
in a business combination is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs, which benefit from the synergies of the
acquisition.
2.3.2 Intangible Assets
Accounting policy
Intangible assets are stated at
cost less accumulated
amortization and impairment. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives
on a straight-line
basis, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset
is based on a number
of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors (such as the
stability of the industry,
and known technological advances) and the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future
cash flows from the
asset. Amortization methods and useful lives are reviewed periodically including at each financial year end.
Research costs are expensed as
incurred. Software product
development costs are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial feasibility of the project is
demonstrated, future economic
benefits are probable, the Group has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the costs
can be measured reliably.
The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labor, overhead costs that are directly
attributable to prepare
the asset for its intended use.
Impairment
Intangible assets are evaluated for
recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the
purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is
determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets.
In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be
impaired, the impairment
to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets
exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss
if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the
asset is increased to
its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined (net of
any accumulated amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

Includes technology assets taken over by the Group from a customer as a part of transformation
project which is not considered as distinct goods or services and the control related to the assets is not transferred to the Group
in accordance with Ind AS 115 - Revenue from contract with customers. Accordingly, the same has been considered as a reduction
to the total contract value and accounted as Deferred contract cost. The Group has entered into financing arrangements with a third
party for these assets. As at June 30, 2023, the financial liability pertaining to such arrangements amounts to 582
crore. This includes, 20 crore was settled directly
by the third party to the customer on behalf of the Group and accordingly considered as non-cash transaction (Refer to Note
2.13). |
Withholding taxes and others

2.11 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Accounting policy
2.11.1 Initial recognition
The Group recognizes financial
assets and financial
liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and
liabilities are recognized
at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction
price. Transaction costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, which are
not at fair value
through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of
financial assets are accounted
for at trade date.
2.11.2 Subsequent
measurement
a. Non-derivative financial
instruments
(i) Financial assets carried at amortized
cost
A financial asset is subsequently
measured at amortized
cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash
flows and the contractual
terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal
amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets carried
at fair value through
other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently
measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both
collecting contractual
cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified
dates to cash flows that
are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Group has made an irrevocable
election for its
investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other
comprehensive income based
on its business model.
(iii) Financial assets
carried at fair value
through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not
classified in any of
the above categories is subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial
liabilities
Financial liabilities are
subsequently carried at amortized
cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration and financial liability under option
arrangements recognized
in a business combination which is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss.
b. Derivative financial
instruments
The Group holds derivative
financial instruments such
as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign
currency exposures. The
counterparty for such contracts is generally a bank.
(i) Financial assets or
financial liabilities,
carried at fair value through profit or loss.
This category includes derivative
financial assets
or liabilities which are not designated as hedges.
Although the Group believes that
these derivatives
constitute hedges from an economic perspective, they may not qualify for hedge accounting under Ind AS 109,
Financial Instruments. Any
derivative that is either not designated as hedge, or is so designated but is ineffective as per Ind AS 109, is
categorized as a financial
asset or financial liability, at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivatives not designated as
hedges are recognized
initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in net profit in the Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss
when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, these derivatives are measured at fair value through profit or
loss and the resulting
exchange gains or losses are included in other income. Assets/liabilities in this category are presented as current
assets/current liabilities
if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the Balance Sheet date.
(ii) Cash flow hedge
The Group designates certain
foreign exchange forward
and options contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable
forecast cash transactions.
When a derivative is designated as
a cash flow hedging
instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other
comprehensive income and accumulated
in the cash flow hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is
recognized immediately in
the net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting,
then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or
exercised, the cumulative
gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedging reserve till the period the hedge was
effective remains in cash
flow hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in
the cash flow hedging
reserve is transferred to the net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss upon the occurrence of the
related forecasted
transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount accumulated in cash flow
hedging reserve is
reclassified to net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.11.3 Derecognition of
financial instruments
The Group derecognizes a financial
asset when the contractual
rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer
qualifies for derecognition
under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Group's
Balance Sheet when the obligation
specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
2.11.4 Fair value of financial
instruments
In determining the fair value of
its financial instruments,
the Group uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each
reporting date. The
methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing model, market multiples,
available quoted market
prices and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such
value may never actually
be realized.
Refer to table 'Financial
instruments by category'
below for the disclosure on carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets
and liabilities maturing
within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts
approximates fair value due
to the short maturity of these instruments.
2.11.5 Impairment
The Group recognizes loss
allowances using the expected
credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets and unbilled revenue which are not fair valued through profit or
loss. Loss allowance
for trade receivables and unbilled revenues with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal
to lifetime ECL. For
all other financial assets, ECLs are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a
significant increase in
credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL.
The Group determines the allowance
for credit losses
based on historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions. The Group
considers current
and anticipated future economic conditions relating to industries the Group deals with and the countries where it
operates.
The amount of ECL (or reversal)
that is required to
adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recorded is recognized as an
impairment loss or gain
in Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

During the year ended March 31,
2023, government securities
and tax free bonds of
383 crore was
transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 of fair value hierarchy, since these were valued based
on quoted price. Further, non-convertible debentures of
1,611 crore were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 of fair value hierarchy,
since these were valued based on market observable inputs.
A one percentage point change in
the unobservable inputs
used in fair valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities does not have a significant impact in its value.
Majority of investments of the
Group are fair valued
based on Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. These investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units,
target maturity fund units,
tax free bonds, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, treasury bills, government securities, quoted bonds
issued by government and
quasi-government organizations and non-convertible debentures. The Group invests after considering counterparty
risks based on multiple
criteria including Tier I capital, Capital Adequacy Ratio, Credit Rating, Profitability, NPA levels and Deposit base
of banks and financial
institutions. These risks are monitored regularly as per Group's risk management program.
2.12 EQUITY
Accounting policy
Ordinary Shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity share capital. Incremental
costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares, share options and buyback are recognized as a deduction from equity,
net of any tax effects.
Treasury Shares
When any entity within the Group purchases the company's ordinary
shares, the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost is presented as a deduction from total equity, until
they are cancelled, sold or reissued. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized as an
increase in equity, and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is transferred to / from securities premium.
Description of reserves
Capital Redemption Reserve

reserve / retained earnings.
Retained earnings
Retained earnings represent the amount of accumulated earnings
of the Group.
Securities premium
The amount received in excess of the par value of equity shares
has been classified as securities premium. Amounts have been utilized for bonus issue and share buyback from share premium account.
Share options outstanding account
The share options outstanding account is used to record the
fair value of equity-settled share based payment transactions with employees. The amounts recorded in share options outstanding account
are transferred to securities premium upon exercise of stock options and transferred to general reserve on account of stock options not
exercised by employees.
Special Economic Zone Re-investment reserve
The Special Economic Zone Re-investment reserve has been created
out of the profit of the eligible SEZ unit in terms of the provisions of Sec 10AA (1)(ii) of Income Tax Act, 1961. The reserve should
be utilized by the Company for acquiring new plant and machinery for the purpose of its business in terms of the provisions of the Sec
10AA (2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Other components of equity

of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries with functional currency other than Indian rupees is recognized in
other comprehensive
income and is presented within equity.
Cash flow hedge reserve

instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other
comprehensive income and accumulated
in the cash flow hedging reserve. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve

the interim condensed Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss upon the occurrence of the related forecasted
transaction.

ADS represents one underlying
equity share.
In the event of liquidation of the
Company, the holders
of equity shares will be entitled to receive any of the remaining assets of the Company in proportion to the number
of equity shares held
by the shareholders, after distribution of all preferential amounts. However, no such preferential amounts exist
currently, other than
the amounts held by irrevocable controlled trusts. For irrevocable controlled trusts, the corpus would be settled in
favor of the beneficiaries.

Capital allocation policy
Effective fiscal 2020, the Company
expects to return
approximately 85% of the free cash flow cumulatively over a 5-year period through a combination of semi-annual
dividends and/or share
buyback and/or special dividends, subject to applicable laws and requisite approvals, if any. Free cash flow is
defined as net cash provided
by operating activities less capital expenditure as per the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows prepared under
IFRS. Dividend and buyback
include applicable taxes.
The Company’s objective when
managing capital
is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to
maximize shareholder
value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividend
payment, return capital
to shareholders, issue new shares or buy back issued shares. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has only one class of
equity shares and
has no debt. Consequent to the above capital structure there are no externally imposed capital requirements.
Dividend
The final dividend on shares is
recorded as a liability
on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of
declaration by the Company's
Board of Directors. Income tax consequences of dividends on financial instruments classified as equity will be
recognized according to
where the entity originally recognized those past transactions or events that generated distributable profits.

The fair value of the awards are
estimated using the
Black-Scholes Model for time and non-market performance based options and Monte Carlo simulation model is used for
TSR based options.
The inputs to the model include the
share price at
date of grant, exercise price, expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term and the risk free rate of
interest. Expected volatility
during the expected term of the options is based on historical volatility of the observed market prices of the
Company's publicly traded
equity shares during a period equivalent to the expected term of the options. Expected volatility of the comparative
company have been
modelled based on historical movements in the market prices of their publicly traded equity shares during a period
equivalent to the expected
term of the options. Correlation coefficient is calculated between each peer entity and the indices as a whole or
between each entity
in the peer group.
The fair value of each equity
settled award is estimated
on the date of grant using the following assumptions:

Deferred contract cost (Refer to Note 2.10) includes technology assets taken over by the
Group from a customer as a part of transformation project which is not considered as distinct goods or services and the control
related to the assets is not transferred to the Group in accordance with Ind AS 115 - Revenue from contract with customers. Accordingly,
the same has been considered as a reduction to the total contract value and accounted as Deferred contract cost. The Group has
entered into financing arrangements with a third party for these assets. As at June 30, 2023, the financial liability pertaining
to such arrangements amounts to 582 crore. During
the three months ended June 30, 2023, 20 crore
was settled directly by the third party to the customer on behalf of the Group and accordingly considered as non-cash transaction. |

2.15 PROVISIONS
Accounting policy
A provision is recognized if, as a
result of a past
event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that is reasonably estimable, and it is probable
that an outflow of economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future
cash flows at a pre-tax
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
a. Post sales client support
The Group provides its clients with
a fixed-period
post sales support on its fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts. Costs associated with such support services are
accrued at the time
related revenues are recorded and included in Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. The Group estimates such
costs based on historical
experience and estimates are reviewed on a periodic basis for any material changes in assumptions and likelihood of
occurrence.
b. Onerous
contracts
Provisions for onerous contracts
are recognized when
the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting the
future obligations
under the contract. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in
which such losses become
probable based on the estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract. The provision is measured at the present
value of the lower
of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a
provision is established
the Group recognizes any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

recognition of revenues and
are expected to be utilized over a period of 1 year.
Provision for post sales client
support and other provisions
is included in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statement of profit and loss.
2.16 INCOME TAXES
Accounting policy
Income tax expense comprises
current and deferred income
tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss except to the
extent that it relates
to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity or other comprehensive income.
Current income tax for
current and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities,
using the tax rates
and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred income tax assets
and liabilities are
recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying
amounts in the financial
statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or
liability in a transaction
that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the
transaction. Deferred
tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the
related tax benefit
will be realized.
Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are measured
using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are
expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of
changes in tax rates on
deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the
enactment or the substantive
enactment date. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable
profit will be available
against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Deferred income taxes are not
provided on the undistributed
earnings of subsidiaries and branches where it is expected that the earnings of the subsidiary or branch will not be
distributed in the
foreseeable future.
The Group offsets current tax
assets and current tax
liabilities; deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off
the recognized amounts
and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously. The income tax
provision for the interim period is made based on the best estimate of the annual average tax rate expected to be
applicable for the full
financial year. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation
charged to income are
credited to equity.

15 crore and provisions (net of reversals) of
35 crore,
respectively. These provisions and reversals pertaining to prior periods are primarily on account of adjudication of
certain disputed
matters, upon filing of tax return and completion of assessments, across various jurisdictions.
Deferred income tax for the three
months ended June
30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 substantially relates to origination and reversal of temporary differences.
The Company’s Advanced
Pricing Arrangement (APA)
with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for US branch income tax expired in March 2021. The Company has applied for
renewal of APA and
currently the US taxable income is based on the Company’s best estimate determined based on the expected value
method.
2.17 REVENUE FROM OPERATIONS
Accounting policy
The Group derives revenues
primarily from IT services
comprising software development and related services, cloud and infrastructure services, maintenance, consulting and
package implementation,
licensing of software products and platforms across the Group’s core and digital offerings (together called as
“software related
services”) and business process management services. Contracts with customers are either on a
time-and-material, unit of work, fixed-price
or on a fixed-timeframe basis.
Revenues from customer contracts
are considered for
recognition and measurement when the contract has been approved in writing by the parties, to the contract, the
parties to contract are
committed to perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable.
Revenue is recognized upon
transfer of control of promised products or services (“performance obligations”) to customers in an
amount that reflects the
consideration the Group has received or expects to receive in exchange for these products or services
(“transaction price”).
When there is uncertainty as to collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved.
The Group assesses the services
promised in a contract
and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. The Group allocates the transaction price to each
distinct performance
obligation based on the relative standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold
separately is the
best evidence of its standalone selling price. In the absence of such evidence, the primary method used to estimate
standalone selling
price is the expected cost plus a margin, under which the Group estimates the cost of satisfying the performance
obligation and then adds
an appropriate margin based on similar services.
The Group’s contracts may
include variable consideration
including rebates, volume discounts and penalties. The Group includes variable consideration as part of transaction
price when there is
a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the variable consideration and when it is probable that a significant
reversal of cumulative
revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.
Revenue on time-and-material and
unit of work based
contracts, are recognized as the related services are performed. Fixed price maintenance revenue is recognized
ratably either on a straight-line
basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period or ratably
using a percentage
of completion method when the pattern of benefits from the services rendered to the customer and the Group’s
costs to fulfil the
contract is not even through the period of contract because the services are generally discrete in nature and not
repetitive. Revenue
from other fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time is
recognized using the percentage-of-completion
method. Efforts or costs expended are used to determine progress towards completion as there is a direct
relationship between input and
productivity. Progress towards completion is measured as the ratio of costs or efforts incurred to date
(representing work performed)
to the estimated total costs or efforts. Estimates of transaction price and total costs or efforts are continuously
monitored over the
term of the contracts and are recognized in net profit in the period when these estimates change or when the
estimates are revised. Revenues
and the estimated total costs or efforts are subject to revision as the contract progresses. Provisions for
estimated losses, if any,
on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the estimated
efforts or costs to complete
the contract.
The billing schedules agreed with
customers include
periodic performance based billing and / or milestone based progress billings. Revenues in excess of billing are
classified as unbilled
revenue while billing in excess of revenues are classified as contract liabilities (which we refer to as unearned
revenues).
In arrangements for software
development and related
services and maintenance services, by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct performance
obligation, the arrangements
with customers generally meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as distinct
performance obligations.
For allocating the transaction price, the Group measures the revenue in respect of each performance obligation of a
contract at its relative
standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence
of its standalone
selling price. In cases where the Group is unable to determine the standalone selling price, the Group uses the
expected cost plus margin
approach in estimating the standalone selling price. For software development and related services, the performance
obligations are satisfied
as and when the services are rendered since the customer generally obtains control of the work as it progresses.
Certain cloud and infrastructure
services contracts
include multiple elements which may be subject to other specific accounting guidance, such as leasing guidance.
These contracts are accounted
in accordance with such specific accounting guidance. In such arrangements where the Group is able to determine that
hardware and services
are distinct performance obligations, it allocates the consideration to these performance obligations on a relative
standalone selling
price basis. In the absence of standalone selling price, the Group uses the expected cost-plus margin approach in
estimating the standalone
selling price. When such arrangements are considered as a single performance obligation, revenue is recognized over
the period and measure
of progress is determined based on promise in the contract.
Revenue from licenses where the
customer obtains a
“right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the license are made available to the customer.
Revenue from licenses
where the customer obtains a “right to access” is recognized over the access period.
Arrangements to deliver software
products generally
have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS).When implementation services are
provided in conjunction
with the licensing arrangement and the license and implementation have been identified as two distinct separate
performance obligations,
the transaction price for such contracts are allocated to each performance obligation of the contract based on their
relative standalone
selling prices. In the absence of standalone selling price for implementation, the Group uses the expected cost plus
margin approach in
estimating the standalone selling price. Where the license is required to be substantially customized as part of the
implementation service
the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation is considered to be a single performance obligation and
the revenue is recognized
using the percentage-of-completion method as the implementation is performed. Revenue from client training, support
and other services
arising due to the sale of software products is recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied. ATS revenue
is recognized ratably
on a straight line basis over the period in which the services are rendered.
Contracts with customers includes
subcontractor services
or third-party vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements. In these types of
arrangements, revenue from
sales of third-party vendor products or services is recorded net of costs when the Group is acting as an agent
between the customer and
the vendor, and gross when the Group is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the group first evaluates
whether it controls
the good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Group considers whether it has the primary
obligation to fulfil the
contract, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other factors to determine whether it controls the goods or service
and therefore is
acting as a principal or an agent.
The incremental costs of obtaining
a contract (i.e.,
costs that would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained) are recognized as an asset if the
Group expects to recover
them.
Certain eligible, nonrecurring
costs (e.g. set-up or
transition or transformation costs) that do not represent a separate performance obligation are recognized as an
asset when such costs
(a) relate directly to the contract; (b) generate or enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying
the performance obligation
in the future; and (c) are expected to be recovered.
Capitalized contract costs relating
to upfront payments
to customers are amortized to revenue and other capitalized costs are amortized to expenses over the respective
contract life on a systematic
basis consistent with the transfer of goods or services to customer to which the asset relates. Capitalized costs
are monitored regularly
for impairment. Impairment losses are recorded when present value of projected remaining operating cash flows is not
sufficient to recover
the carrying amount of the capitalized costs.
The Group presents revenues net of
indirect taxes in
its Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

Disaggregated revenue
information
Revenue disaggregation by business
segments has been
included in segment information (Refer to Note 2.24). The table below presents disaggregated revenues from
contracts with customers

The percentage of revenue from
fixed-price contracts
for each of the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 is 52%.
Trade Receivables and Contract
Balances
The timing of revenue recognition,
billings and cash
collections results in receivables, unbilled revenue, and unearned revenue on the Group’s Consolidated Balance
Sheet. Amounts are
billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g.,
monthly or quarterly)
or upon achievement of contractual milestones.
The Group’s receivables are
rights to consideration
that are unconditional. Unbilled revenues comprising revenues in excess of billings from time and material contracts
and fixed price maintenance
contracts are classified as financial asset when the right to consideration is unconditional and is due only after a
passage of time.
Invoicing to the clients for other
fixed price contracts
is based on milestones as defined in the contract and therefore the timing of revenue recognition is different from
the timing of invoicing
to the customers. Therefore unbilled revenues for other fixed price contracts (contract asset) are classified as
non-financial asset because
the right to consideration is dependent on completion of contractual milestones.
Invoicing in excess of earnings are
classified as unearned
revenue.
Trade receivables and unbilled
revenues are presented
net of impairment in the consolidated Balance Sheet.
2.18 OTHER INCOME, NET
Accounting policy
Other income is comprised primarily
of interest income,
dividend income, gain/loss on investment and exchange gain/loss on forward and options contracts and on translation
of foreign currency
assets and liabilities. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is
recognized when the right
to receive payment is established.
Foreign currency
Accounting policy
Functional currency
The functional currency of Infosys,
Infosys BPM, EdgeVerve,
Skava and controlled trusts is the Indian rupee. The functional currencies for foreign subsidiaries are their
respective local currencies.
These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (rounded off to crore; one crore equals ten million).
Transactions and
translations
Foreign-currency denominated
monetary assets and liabilities
are translated into the relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the Balance Sheet date. The
gains or losses resulting
from such translations are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and reported within exchange
gains/ (losses) on
translation of assets and liabilities, net, except when deferred in Other Comprehensive Income as qualifying cash
flow hedges. Non-monetary
assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at
the exchange rate prevalent
at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a
foreign currency and
measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction. The related
revenue and expense
are recognized using the same exchange rate.
Transaction gains or losses
realized upon settlement
of foreign currency transactions are included in determining net profit for the period in which the transaction is
settled. Revenue, expense
and cash-flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the relevant functional currencies using
the exchange rate in
effect on the date of the transaction.
The translation of financial
statements of the foreign
subsidiaries to the presentation currency is performed for assets and liabilities using the exchange rate in effect
at the Balance Sheet
date and for revenue, expense and cash-flow items using the average exchange rate for the respective periods. The
gains or losses resulting
from such translation are included in currency translation reserves under other components of equity. When a
subsidiary is disposed off,
in full, the relevant amount is transferred to net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. However
when a change in the
parent's ownership does not result in loss of control of a subsidiary, such changes are recorded through equity.
Other Comprehensive Income, net of
taxes includes translation
differences on non-monetary financial assets measured at fair value at the reporting date, such as equities
classified as financial instruments
and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
Goodwill and fair value adjustments
arising on the
acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the
exchange rate in effect
at the Balance Sheet date.
Government grant
The Group recognizes government
grants only when there
is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to them shall be complied with, and the grants will be
received. Government grants
related to assets are treated as deferred income and are recognized in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of
Profit and Loss on
a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Government grants related to revenue are
recognized on a systematic
basis in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss over the periods necessary to match them with
the related costs which
they are intended to compensate.

2.19 EXPENSES
Accounting policy
Gratuity and Pensions
The Group provides for gratuity, a
defined benefit
retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees majorly of Infosys and its Indian subsidiaries.
The Gratuity Plan provides
a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an
amount based on the respective
employee's salary and the tenure of employment with the Group. The Company contributes Gratuity liabilities to the
Infosys Limited Employees'
Gratuity Fund Trust (the Trust). In case of Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPM
Employees' Gratuity Fund
Trust and EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively. Trustees administer contributions
made to the Trusts
and contributions are invested in a scheme with the Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by Indian law.
The Group operates defined benefit
pension plan in
certain overseas jurisdictions, in accordance with the local laws. These plans are managed by third party fund
managers. The plans provide
for periodic payouts after retirement and/or for a lumpsum payment as set out in rules of each fund and includes
death and disability
benefits. The defined benefit plans require contributions which are based on a percentage of salary that varies
depending on the age of
the respective employees.
Liabilities with regard to these
defined benefit plans
are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the
projected unit credit
method. These defined benefit plans expose the Group to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, interest rate risk
and market risk.
The Group recognizes the net
obligation of a defined
benefit plan in its Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net
defined benefit liability
/ (asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent
periods. The actual return
of the portfolio of plan assets, in excess of the yields computed by applying the discount rate used to measure the
defined benefit obligation
is recognized in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments is recognized in net profit in the
Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss.
Provident fund
Eligible employees of Infosys
receive benefits from
a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the eligible employee and the Company make monthly
contributions to the provident
fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. The Company contributes a portion to the
Infosys Limited Employees'
Provident Fund Trust. The trust invests in specific designated instruments as permitted by Indian law. The remaining
portion is contributed
to the government administered pension fund. The rate at which the annual interest is payable to the beneficiaries
by the trust is being
administered by the Government of India. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall, if any, between
the return from the
investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
In respect of Indian subsidiaries,
eligible employees
receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the eligible employee and the
respective companies
make monthly contributions to this provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's
salary. Amounts collected
under the provident fund plan are deposited in a government administered provident fund. The Companies have no
further obligation to the
plan beyond its monthly contributions.
Superannuation
Certain employees of Infosys,
Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve
are participants in a defined contribution plan. The Group has no further obligations to the plan beyond its monthly
contributions which
are periodically contributed to a trust fund, the corpus of which is invested with the Life Insurance Corporation of
India.
Compensated absences
The Group has a policy on
compensated absences which
are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is
determined by actuarial
valuation performed by an independent actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the
additional amount expected
to be paid/availed as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date. Expense on
non-accumulating compensated
absences is recognized in the period in which the absences occur.

2.20 Leases
Accounting
Policy
The Group as a lessee
The Group’s lease asset
classes consist of leases
for land, buildings and computers. The Group assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a
contract. A contract is,
or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of
time in exchange for
consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the group
assesses whether: (1)
the contract involves the use of an identified asset (2) the Group has substantially all of the economic benefits
from use of the asset
through the period of the lease and (3) the Group has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the
lease, the Group
recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements
in which it is a lessee,
except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these
short-term and low value leases,
the Group recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
As a lessee, the Group determines
the lease term as
the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate the lease, if the use of such
option is reasonably
certain. The Group makes an assessment on the expected lease term on a lease-by-lease basis and thereby assesses
whether it is reasonably
certain that any options to extend or terminate the contract will be exercised. In evaluating the lease term, the
Group considers factors
such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the termination of
the lease and the
importance of the underlying asset to Group’s operations taking into account the location of the underlying
asset and the availability
of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods is reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the
current economic circumstances.
Certain lease arrangements includes
the options to
extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these
options when it is reasonably
certain that they will be exercised.
The right-of-use assets are
initially recognized at
cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to
the commencement date
of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less
accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated
from the commencement
date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
Right-of-use assets are evaluated
for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the
purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is
determined on an individual
asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets.
In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The lease liability is initially
measured at amortized
cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate
implicit in the lease
or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases.
Lease liabilities are
remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset if the Group changes its assessment if
whether it will exercise
an extension or a termination option.
Lease liability and ROU asset have
been separately
presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
The Group as a lessor
Leases for which the Group is a
lessor is classified
as a finance or operating lease. Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership to the
lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
When the Group is an intermediate
lessor, it accounts
for its interests in the head lease and the sublease separately. The sublease is classified as a finance or
operating lease by reference
to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease.
For operating leases, rental income
is recognized on
a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

2.21 BASIC AND DILUTED SHARES USED IN COMPUTING EARNINGS PER EQUITY SHARE
Accounting policy
Basic earnings per equity share is
computed by dividing
the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Group by the weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders
of the Group by the
weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the
weighted average number
of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive
potential equity shares
are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average
market value of the
outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as at the beginning of the period,
unless issued at
a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and
potentially dilutive
equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues
including for changes
effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.
2.22 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND
COMMITMENTS
Accounting policy
Contingent liability is a possible
obligation arising
from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more
uncertain future events
not wholly within the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not
recognized because it is not
probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the
amount of the obligation
cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

in respect of income tax matters amounted to 4,066 crore
and 4,062 crore, respectively.
The claims against the Group
primarily represent demands
arising on completion of assessment proceedings under the Income Tax Act, 1961. These claims are on account of
multiple issues of disallowances
such as disallowance of profits earned from STP Units and SEZ Units, disallowance of deductions in respect of
employment of new employees
under section 80JJAA, disallowance of expenditure towards software being held as capital in nature, payments
made to Associated Enterprises
held as liable for withholding of taxes. These matters are pending before various Income Tax Authorities and
the Management including
its tax advisors expect that its position will likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a
material adverse effect on
the Group's financial position and results of operations.
Amount paid to statutory
authorities against the tax
claims amounted to 6,498 crore
and 6,528 crore as at June 30,

2.24 SEGMENT REPORTING
Ind AS 108, Operating segments,
establishes standards
for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments and related disclosures
about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The Group's operations predominantly relate to providing end-to-end business
solutions to enable
clients to enhance business performance. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) evaluates the Group's performance
and allocates resources
based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly, information has been
presented along business
segments. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to
record revenue and
expenditure in individual segments, and are as set out in the accounting policies.
Business segments of the Group are
primarily enterprises
in Financial Services and Insurance, enterprises in Manufacturing, enterprises in Retail, Consumer Packaged Goods
and Logistics, enterprises
in the Energy, Utilities, Resources and Services, enterprises in Communication, Telecom OEM and Media, enterprises
in Hi-Tech, enterprises
in Life Sciences and Healthcare and all other segments. The Financial services reportable segments has been
aggregated to include the
Financial Services operating segment and Finacle operating segment because of the similarity of the economic
characteristics. All other
segments represent the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan, China, Infosys Public Services & other
enterprises in Public
Services.
Revenue and identifiable operating
expenses in relation
to segments are categorized based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment. Revenue for 'all
other segments' represents
revenue generated by Infosys Public services and revenue generated from customers located in India, Japan and China
and other enterprises
in Public services. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services from the Group's
offshore software
development centers and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated efforts of the
segment. Certain expenses
such as depreciation and amortization, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically
allocable to specific
segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. The Management believes that it is not practical to
provide segment disclosures
relating to those costs and expenses, and accordingly these expenses are separately disclosed as
"unallocated" and adjusted
against the total income of the Group.
Assets and liabilities used in the
Group's business
are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The
Management believes that
it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a
meaningful segregation
of the available data is onerous.
Business segment revenue
information is collated based
on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.
Disclosure of revenue by geographic
locations is given
in note 2.17 Revenue from operations.
