Business Highlights

We continued to execute on our Renew-New strategy through automation and innovation, fueling this through our culture of learning and education.

RENEW

In Q2, we deepened existing client relationships in core services, won large traditional deals, and focused on driving automation and grassroots innovation into every aspect of our service offerings through Infosys Mana and our Zero Distance initiative.

“Data volumes continue to grow exponentially, and humankind now converts data into knowledge at unprecedented rates, making it impossible to codify such expertise and intelligence in software. Our systems need to learn. Those that do also need to be put to some practical use. It seems that Infosys Mana is doing just that.” - Report title: Infosys Mana uses AI to extract knowledge from processes and control business outcomes, Authors: Carl Lehmann, Katy Ring, 451 Research, Date: October 4, 2016

"Infosys is a preferred partner for development and support across our portfolio of off-the-shelf and custom applications, including our most critical business applications. We’re keen to create an enterprise for the future by leveraging AI and machine learning to solve business issues. We’ve selected Infosys Mana to help optimize these business processes and provide a better experience for our users by driving automation, improving efficiencies, increasing productivity, and reducing business process level disruptions, while at the same time reducing the total cost of our IT operations.” - Andy Bynum, Corporate Vice President – IT, AMD

“We are very pleased to award Infosys the GPS L2 Application Maintenance & Support Vendor Consolidation engagement. Infosys impressed us with the overall depth of the solution and commitment to service transformation through use of its Mana platform which covers automation, analytics and knowledge management. We believe that this deal will help us achieve our objectives of driving significant productivity improvements and optimizing and enhancing the services. This is a major step forwards in the strategic relationship between our organisations and we look forward to a successful journey in delivering the program together.” - Hans-Juergen Rieder, UBS Managing Director - Global Production Services

“Beyond the millions of dollars that we're going to be saving here at APS, the benefit is truly with our end customers in having a system that's going to be flexible and nimble and meet all of their needs. Through our partnership with Infosys and with this Zero Distance initiative we were able to solve complex problems that the utility’s been facing for some time.” - Christine Gonzales, Program Management Office Lead, Arizona Public Service

“What we're trying to do with world-class customer service is really reinvent, completely transform and turn inside out the way we deliver customer service here at Cisco. We're looking to use digitization to be able to simplify, standardize, and automate many of the processes that drive work, so that we can change the investment we have in people, so that they are then able to have better conversations with a customer. Our largest savings has been 80% of savings in terms of dollar spend, we’ve removed 2 million hours of customer wait time in one particular process alone. It’s been a great ride, we really appreciate Infosys’ flexibility and ability to change with us - I hope we continue this partnership for the next 20 years.” - Steve Power, Senior Director, Global Service Offerings, CISCO

Gap Inc., a leading global specialty retailer, has chosen Infosys as its primary technology services provider supporting its entire applications and infrastructure portfolio. This critical milestone strengthens the 18 year relationship between the two organizations even further.

NEW

In Q2, we continued to work with clients and partners on new areas, and new frontiers. And we made Design Thinking central to every engagement.

“GE and Infosys have a shared vision for the merging of our physical and digital worlds. As an early adopter of our Predix platform, we are partnering with Infosys to foster co-innovation of new applications with advanced concepts in digital twin, brilliant factory and AI. Our joint innovations will deliver a range of services to customers, including Industrial Internet solutions and applications to help companies simplify, automate and transform their businesses.” - Bill Ruh, Chief Executive Officer, GE Digital & Chief Digital Officer, GE

“I have just returned from our recent visit with the Infosys design team in Palo Alto along with 15 heads of marketing and customer experience from Australian superannuation funds. Infosys delivered an incredible session of learning around the theory and practice of design led thinking to develop a leading customer experience strategy. The group thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent with the team and have a framework they can take back into their business and start to employ immediately.” - Theresa Hoogland, Executive Manager Strategy and Marketing, Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees (AIST)

“Design Thinking helped bring the teams together for reimagining the collaboration experience at USG Boral. It also helped them to think big and then bring these thoughts together to achieve actionable insights in a really short amount of time. Moreover, it was fun and engaging at the same time.” - Paul Monzella, Chief Financial Officer – USG Boral

“Infosys and Kohls are working together, using Design Thinking, and the Skava digital platform to enhance experiences from the customers, associates and overall Kohls perspective.” - Ratnakar Lavu, Chief Digital Officer, Kohls

Skava, Panaya & EdgeVerve

This quarter we launched Skava Commerce, a new standard for modern, mobile-first and modular e-commerce platforms to provide businesses a future-ready architecture that will enable next generation shopping experiences. Skava, an e-commerce startup acquired by Infosys, developed the platform to help retailers to quickly launch new offerings, improve conversion rates of digital channels, amongst other benefits, by leveraging flexible cloud-based microservices and white label applications, along with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, natural language processing and virtual reality (VR).

Infosys and TOMS Shoes are working together, to implement an omni-channel platform leveraging Skava Commerce.

“In just 8 weeks, Skava and Vantiv worked collaboratively to launch the newly improved Vantiv Advantage Program App. We extended and simplified the digital engagement experience so Vantiv’s partners could sell and grow their businesses faster. Rather than converting an existing partner portal into the mobile app, the Skava team took a step further and re-authored the entire application in SkavaSTUDIO, which allowed the Vantiv team to take full ownership and control of the app to publish updates and changes. The Skava team did a great job to get us to the launch. We are now looking forward to getting this published in the app stores and seeing the adoption. Stay tuned for mobile transformation at Vantiv.” - Balaji Devarasetty, Chief Technology Officer - Integrated Payments, Vantiv LLC

Panaya

The COOP Group, one of the biggest Swiss retail trade and wholesale companies, selected Panaya for a seamless migration to SAP HANA with its upgrade from EHP5 to EHP7. “With the support of Panaya’s solution, we were able to import many references into the system. We haven’t done anything like that before. We were able to ensure an overall better quality of the SAP system – even beyond the upgrade. After the go live, there were no more critical errors. Our development department was excited because they were able to start with the corrections even after the first modification adjustment. For further upgrades we will definitely cooperate with Panaya again.” - Davyd Däppen, Manager IT Processes Product Management ACES at COOP

EdgeVerve

This quarter the EdgeVerve business delivered a strong performance with 48 wins and 23 go-lives from both the Finacle and Edge suite of solutions across various markets.

Finacle continues to be the solution of choice for new-generation digital banking businesses. Building upon its success in the payments bank space, the Finacle solution suite was chosen by Aditya Birla group for their upcoming payments bank. EdgeVerve continued to gain strong traction for Edge products with several new clients added this quarter across various solutions such as AssistEdge, BrandEdge and TradeEdge.

This quarter Infosys Finacle also announced the global availability of its industry leading Finacle Universal Banking Solution Suite on Huawei’s FusionCloud based cloud platform.

CULTURE

We continue to invest in education to help our employees maximize their potential. We are enhancing our capabilities at the Infosys Global Education Center and through partnerships with organizations such as Udacity.

“Udacity and Infosys share a similar vision for lifelong learning, that education is no longer about years-long course work with a singular end goal, but rather, learning is a lifelong endeavor in which we continuously renew ourselves and expand the knowledge we already have, and learn entirely new kinds of skills. With Nanodegrees in particular, we can drive rapid acquisition of new skills when needed, for the most in-demand skills. As part of this effort, we are excited to launch the Udacity FastTrack program exclusively for Infosys, making available Udacity's online Nanodegree certifications for all Infosys new-hires. We will complement Infosys' world class Mysore training programs with Nanodegrees in several high demand and constantly evolving areas such as user experience, mobile and web development to rapidly scale the skills and expertise in these areas, and more. We are also excited to leverage the deep expertise of Infosys to bring the critical hands-on course work to our Nanodegrees through projects based on real-world experiences in the most sought after skills in the industry.” - Sebastian Thrun, Founder & President, Udacity

Vishal Sikka

Hi, good morning. We have entered Q2 with a strong focus on execution. I am very happy with the progress that we have made and the results that we have achieved. We delivered on reported basis a growth of 3.5% to $2,587 mn and on constant currency a growth of little bit short of 4%. So I am happy with that. Margins we grew by 80 basis points to 24.9%. Our utilization went up to 82.5% which is high for us over the last several years. The key factors that had contributed to the less than desirable performance that we had in Q1, we have managed to arrest those, which is Consulting, BPO as well as Finacle and parts of our India business. So I am quite happy with the progress that we achieved. Also, other operational parameters like in various aspects of operational efficiency, subcon deduction, the onsite role ratios and things of this nature. Also, in large deals we crossed 1 bn dollars, we did little bit more than 1.2 bn in large deals, large percentage of that was in the framework deals. In large accounts as well as in the addition of $ 50+ mn and $ 100+ mn accounts we continue to make progress. So I am happy with the performance that our team delivered in this Q2.

While there are quarterly ups and downs based on a variety of factors, what matters really in our industry is the structural change that is going on in our industry. I have talked about this for the last two years. The signs of this change are very visible, very abundantly clear as we look around. I believe that our strategy is quite distinctively different than strategy of many of our competitors. I think that you can start to see the strategy differences play out in the results that we are achieving. The key part of the evolution of our industry is going to be to evolve from a people-only model towards people-plus-software where people are amplified by software and by automation and that improved productivity and automation is then leveraged towards innovation, towards people becoming innovative both in top-down innovation, structural areas like strategy and consulting as well as grassroots, grounds-up innovation coming from the people. On these all important fronts, we are continuing to make progress. That is what will change the overall equation for us as we evolve towards a next-generation company and away from the model of the past that we had. Also, to help us set ourselves up for this, about 18-months ago we established a single defragmented delivery organization under Ravi’s leadership and that has showed tremendous results in the last 18-months with the increased focus, improved bandwidth, defragmentation and ability to focus on client needs. We are similarly now doing the same on the sales side. We have three presidents – Sandeep, Mohit and Rajesh. Under their leadership, we are establishing 13 or so industry heads who have sharp accountability, sharp focus and sharp agility to be able to respond to market needs and bring the best of the entire Infosys to bear on the growth that we endeavor to achieve in the next several quarters.

So overall a good quarter, great focus on operational execution parameters and broad overall good result in a difficult time, in a structurally challenging time for our industry. So I am quite satisfied with the result. Beyond the quarterly results I am quite happy with the progress that we are making on reinventing ourselves for the future.

So with that, I think we can take some questions.

Chandra Srikanth

Hi, Good Morning. Chandra Srikanth here from ET NOW. Questions for the three of you, I will start with Vishal. Vishal, this is second time you are cutting guidance this fiscal year. So how are you really going to repose confidence in investors about the predictability of your earnings? Are you fairly confident that you will stick with 8% to 9% for the rest of the fiscal year based on the demand that you are seeing? Secondly, at this rate, do you see a need to relook your 2020 targets; you said that you will look at this by the end of the year? Thirdly, if you can take us through the restructuring that you just mentioned in terms of 13 industry heads, would that not be a distraction in the current environment where growth is becoming difficult? Pravin, just to understand, in terms of how you performed on large deal wins and what really helped you in terms of geography, sectors in this environment? Ranga, margin expansion, but how sustainable is this given that you do not have growth to support margin expansion and going by the trend that is what it looks like in the coming quarters, so what other levers do you have to continue this margin expansion?

Vishal Sikka

Hey Chandra! On guidance, our belief is to ensure that there is as little as possible asymmetry of information between what the management sees and what we share with the market and we have always endeavored to do that. We operate our business in a dually volatile atmosphere – one is based on the transformation of the company based on what is going on in our industry and the other one is what happens in the outside atmosphere. Both of these contribute to our ability to forecast over the course of a year and so forth. So based on the visibility that we have as you see over the course of the last quarter, we mentioned some of the client behavior related matter such as the RBS decline that we had and some client-specific things. Those have contributed to our outlook on the remainder of the year and that is what we see right now and that is what we have shared. As far as 2020, that has always been an aspiration. What is the point of an aspiration if it is not something that we can aspire to? We are sticking to that - $ 20 bn, 30%, $80,000 revenue per employee. Look, the yearly and quarterly guidance and the forecast and the plans are based on what we see currently in the present atmosphere, but the future cannot simply be an increment of the present. The future is something that we have to set a target that if we are able to execute on our transformation, then what is the number that we should aspire to and that is the number. So obviously, we are sticking to that. In terms of the organization, we operate by verticals, our go-to-market is based on industries and being able to deliver compelling value propositions of both the ‘Renew’ and the ‘New’, not only our ‘Renew’ and our ‘New’ but also our clients renew and new. We need a sharp focus, accountability and agility in being able to get there and therefore we have organized under the leadership of our three sales presidents – Sandeep, Mohit and Rajesh. We must keep in mind that beyond their responsibilities in verticals, they also carry global responsibilities. For example, Mohit runs all the sales operations for the company globally, so all the operational efforts of sales are his, not only in the vertical area that he is directly responsible for. Similarly Sandeep is responsible for bringing all the new services and software across the company. Rajesh is responsible for ensuring that the strategy and consulting part of the work that we do is global in nature. So they will continue to be responsible for those global functions as well as their industries, but now with the 13 industry heads we will achieve that accountability and that agility. So I think that will go hand-in-hand with amazing job that Ravi is doing, running a defragmented delivery organization where we can bring the power of automation as well as grassroots innovation to bear and you see the results that is delivering.

Pravin Rao

Just to add on Vishal’s thing in the sales restructuring, in Delivery also under Ravi we already have about 13 leaders. We did this about 18-months back and it has worked well and so we have now extended on the sales side, on the market side. Now coming back to the large deals, we won 6 deals - 2 of them with committed revenues totaling to about $138 mn and 4 framework deals, $1.069 bn. So total of slightly over $1.2 bn, this has compared to about $800 mn we did in previous quarter. So large deal win continues to be good, the pipeline continues to be healthy. In terms of the overall commentary on services and the segments, it has been a broad-based growth. From a geography perspective, we had good growth in Rest of the World. In India we had a good growth; it was on the back of GST project. In Europe on reported basis it was just about 1.1% quarter-on-quarter growth but on a constant currency it was 3.7%, almost close to Infosys growth. Only Americas was a slightly moderate growth; it was about 2.7% or so. Barring that I think by and large the growth has been uniform across sectors. From Services perspective, we continue to see our core IT Services doing extremely well. They have grown much faster than the organization. We had a 4.7% constant currency growth on the core IT Services side, led by good growth in the Engineering Services, Testing Services, Infrastructure Management Services and Application Development. On the industry side, we have seen good growth in ECS; over 6% quarter-on-quarter growth. All three segments – Energy, Utilities as well as Telecom have done extremely well. Despite all the challenges we have seen good growth in Financial Services as well as Insurance. Manufacturing has been moderate. Retail has seen marginal growth. But having said that, while from a growth perspective, while it has been marginal, on an incremental revenue perspective we have done well on Retail. In terms of the market share capture, I think we have done reasonably well, capturing market share in the space from our competition as well. Overall net-net I think it has been a fairly decent growth across segments, across service lines.

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

On the margin front, we have expanded the margins by 80 basis points. I think I would certainly attribute this to our very sharp focus over the last couple of quarters on the operational efficiency parameters which we have been focusing on. On utilization, it used to be in late 70s as recent as about FY’15. We said we will focus it to keep it consistently about 80% and last six quarters it has been above 80% and this quarter 82.5%. Other indicator as you know is the onsite effort mix. It was 29.9% last quarter and we have seen that declining to 29.7% which is again a positive movement for us. Of course, the onsite employee cost optimization continues, that has helped us. More importantly, even the subcontractor expenses which used to be 6.3% of the revenue in Q3 of last year, we said, we would bring it down, moderate it, without hurting the growth. So it has come down to 5.6% and now 5.4%. So overall I think in this quarter, there has been a continuation of our sharp focus on operational efficiency which helped us in improving the margins by 80 basis points. Margin is an outcome of three key pieces – one, of course, is the revenue growth, the second one is the pricing and the third one is to what extent the pricing declines we could offset through operational efficiency indicators, whether it is subcon, utilization, onsite mix, onsite role ratios and so on and so forth which are all internal factors that we have which we do believe we have those levers. If you look at for the first half, we had average operating margin of 24.5%. If you look at the last couple of years, we have always said that our medium-term focus on operating margin is 24% to 26%. In fiscal ’16, we ended up at exactly mid-point 25%. In the first half of this year, we have had 24.5%. So given the revenue trajectory for the balance of the year, we expect it to be in the range of 24% to 25%. Having said that, our focus on the operational efficiency levers, we have consistently demonstrated over the last couple of quarters. We will continue to focus on that. There could be quarter-to-quarter volatility but the trajectory of those operational efficiency indicators are extremely important for us. We do believe that we will leverage them including some onsite optimization and so on and so forth.

Sajeet Manghat

This is Sajeet here from Bloomberg-Quint. Vishal, I just want you to elaborate a little more on the guidance part because you had 10.5% to 12% as guided in Q1, you brought it down to 7.5% to 8.5% in dollar terms. So there is a 300 basis points dip on the low band. Is it entirely because of RBS or there are other headwinds which is forcing you to bring it down by 300 basis points because the market was looking at somewhere around 150-200 basis points impact on your guidance because of this? Second question was on value compression on large deals as you go for automation. Are you seeing that happening in the market?

For Pravin, one question is on impact, how do you see the Retail and the BFSI space working because industry's IT players are talking about Retail suddenly going off the growth path and BFSI is going to be a challenge there. When do we see the ramp down of RBS order happening, is it going to be in second half and spread over how many quarters will that be?

And for Ranga, can you just give a little more color, you said that the target is 24% to 25% and you expanded your margins by 80 bps in Q2, can you just break it down for us, where is it coming from?

Vishal Sikka

So on guidance again, it depends on what is going on in the present situation. So RBS is one part of it but there are other aspects of it, some of them are internal, some parts of some service lines not growing as fast as we had expected and so forth. But generally when you look at a guidance, it is overall situation and there are three major factors there, the client specific situations, the structural situation in the industry which is related to your second question which is around the price compression and the impact of automation and so forth and this downward spiral that I have talked about over the last two years and that contributes to lowered economics. Then the third one is internal factor around some of our service lines where the need for our transformation and renewal is higher than in other areas. So all those bring us to the point where in the near term we see what we see that gets us to this 8% to 9% constant currency for the year. So that is how we see the remainder of the year developing.

In terms of automation, I think that this is a very fundamental part of the work that we do going forward. I am very happy with the adoption of Mana that we have seen. The revenue growth from Mana is close to almost negligible. However, the adoption of it by clients and the successes that we are seeing are very encouraging. We added a large number of additional Mana clients that went into production over the course of Q2 and the productivity improvement this year as a result of that are starting to show results. So even though we are still in the early stages of automation, we are quite encouraged by the progress that it is marking. My sense is that as Ranga and Pravin talked about the operational efficiency parameters, those continue to help us but the structural impact that we will see in the work that we do in the industry will come from automation, from AI technology helping to improve the productivity of our people dramatically and that is going to be crucial for our future.

Pravin Rao

In the BFSI, in the last several quarters we have had very good performance despite the challenging environment. What we are seeing has been there for the last few quarters as well but we have been helped with our diverse portfolio across regions and across markets, that has helped us in good stead. Having said that, in quarter two we had this slip on RBS. The ramp down will happen in quarter three onwards on the particular piece of work we have done with RBS and we are also seeing some headwinds in couple of accounts on the BFSI side. So while we have good performance in BFSI over several quarters, we expect it to be a little bit muted over the next couple of quarters till we recover from the headwinds that we are seeing today. From a client perspective there continues to be, apart from the cost pressures there continues to be a lot of investments in terms of adoption of cloud, in terms of improving customer experience through digital. There is a lot of investment in Blockchain, crypto currency and so on. We continue to see investment along the operation side, we continue to see a lot of pressure on the cost side. In the long run we are definitely very comfortable on the BFSI space. In fact of the six large deals win that I talked about, three were in the BFSI space. So barring softer probably one or two quarters, we are fairly comfortable on BFSI.

On the Retail space, it continues to be volatile, the consumer spending is very choppy. In the US also it has slowed down in some sense because of uncertainty around elections, Brexit and so on. There continues to be some amount of volatility and softness in the system. Clients continue to spend on digital, on some of the newer areas like virtual reality, multi-channel and so on. Some of the investments we have made in Mana or investments in Skava and other things, Panaya and all are finding lot of resonance in this space. What we are seeing is increased spend on the capex side but a lot of pressure on the opex side and we are seeing lot more traction on our product side of the business.

On the CPG side, they are more global in nature and because of the strengthening dollar they are facing challenges in markets outside US. So there also there is a lot more focus on efficiencies, there are also investments in direct-to-consumer and so on. We expect the Retail vertical to be a bit choppy over the next few quarters. But having said that, as I said earlier, while growth has been very moderate for us in Retail, from a market share perspective in the last few quarters we seem to have done relatively well when compared with competition.

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

Yes, I think we are very happy with our margin improvement this quarter. As you know, margin improved on the back of lot of improvements in the operational efficiency parameters. For example, the utilization increasing to 82.5% and onset mix coming down by 0.2% helped us overall improvement of operating margin by 1%. On the negative side, we had higher third party software cost which reduced margins by 60 bps, so net 40 bps. In addition, we had onsite cost optimization measures and so on which was partially offset by higher variable pay that we paid this quarter and also some of the compensation that we announced for the senior management and so on. All put together, net-net impact of the margin was improvement by 80 basis points.

I think primarily what we are seeing is that, we have been saying this for the last couple of quarters. There are levers in the company which we need to fully optimize whether it is utilization, whether it is onsite mix, whether it is role ratio onsite, subcon expenses again have held and it has come down from 6.3% of revenue about four quarters ago, it has come down. So I think we have these levers and we have always said that in the medium term the operating margin, our expectation is 24% to 26%. In fiscal 2016 we had ended exactly at the mid-point which his 25%. If you look at the first half of this year we are at 24.5%. As I was saying earlier, operating margin is a derivative of three pieces - one of course is the revenue growth and the second one is pricing and the third one is how efficiently we can offset the pricing declines through operational efficiency parameters that I talked about. So given the revenue guidance that we expect overall for fiscal 2017, the operating margin to be in the range of 24% to 25%.

Rukmini Rao

Gentlemen, Rukmini Rao from CNBC TV18. A question to all of you. Vishal, one, want to understand from you the lowering of guidance that we see, is this very conservative guidance from Infosys, have you left a safety net for yourself? And also in terms of the lowered guidance, in terms of your visibility for Q3 and Q4, what is it looking like and where are you seeing these headwinds that has compelled you to lower your guidance?

Pravin, in terms of the impact of RBS and also the ramping up of other deals, if I remember right in the last investor call you were talking about better sense of it by the end of September or so. Want to understand from you what exactly has been the impact of RBS? And also in terms of ramping up of large deals what is that looking like?

And Ranga, if you could break up the margins expansion that has happened, how the 80 basis points come about? Thank you.

Vishal Sikka

So, Q3 traditionally is a weak quarter because of the less number of working days, furloughs and so forth. So beyond that they had a compounding effect of couple of days declines like the clients that we have talked about. So that contributes to a large degree to what we see happening. Again, as for the conservative or not and managing expectations, etc, I have always said that our approach is to minimize the asymmetry between what the three of us see and what we share with the markets. This is what we see presently based on the situation that we have. We will continue to focus obviously on strong performance. In particular, as Pravin said earlier with the capex improving and the ability to sell new products, some of these will compensate for some of the headwinds that we see. But based on the visibility that we have presently, we are comfortable with the 8% to 9% for the year on constant currency. So, that is fundamentally the situation.

Beyond the 90 days cycle, the underlying pattern in the work that we see is governed by bringing in automation into the work that we do using our AI technology, our platform Mana as well as doing completely new kinds of things both by innovation coming from our employees and the new structural things that we are doing with our software platforms and so forth. Accelerating those is something that is crucial to our success. I think all of these will add up to performance as we going forward, but presently based on what we see this is our guidance.

Pravin Rao

On the RBS we had about 3,000 people ramp down starting this quarter and these people are predominantly in India. This is what we said earlier as well. From a ramp up perspective, as and when we win new projects, as and when we see ramp up of existing large deals, some of these people will start getting absorbed. We have considered the RBS ramp down, we have considered the headwinds that we are seeing, we have considered the large deal ramp ups that is happening today, we have considered the large deal pipeline as well arriving at the guidance. So, all these are already reflected in the guidance.

Rukmini Rao

I was listening to you and you went on to saying that you get a better sense that how is the ramping up is happening? If you could give us a sense of in which vertical are you seeing the ramping up happening?

Pravin Rao

From overall perspective, we are facing some softness, as I said earlier in the Financial Services, but in the ECS space both in energy and utilities as well as in telecom we are seeing better traction. In healthcare, obviously we had a good quarter two and we will continue to see a good ramp up in quarter three as well. Insurance, while BFSI overall we may see some softness, we are seeing better traction in insurance as well.

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

As I said earlier I think the operating margin improved this quarter by 80 basis points on the back of several operating efficiency indicators whether it is utilization, onsite effort mix, subcon, employee cost and some of the onsite optimizations that we did which helped us. For example, improvement in utilization and onsite effort mix improved the margin by 100 basis points which was partially offset by higher third party software cost of 60 basis points and the balance 40 basis points came through the onsite optimization that we did and lower visa charges as well. The other thing that I need to really emphasize here is that we have a very healthy operating cash flow generation in this quarter touched $ 550 mn. And for the first half of this year the operating cash flow crossed $1 bn. At the same time we have seen better collection of our receivables. Our DSO came down to 64 days as compared to 66 days. As you know we have also announced an interim dividend of Rs. 11 per share. I think we have leveraged all our operational efficiency indicators quite well in this quarter and if you look at the trajectory of these indicators over the last couple of quarters, we have said that we want to focus on them, there is need for improvement here and we have done that. While there could be quarter-to-quarter volatility, we do continue to focus on these indicators.

Rukmini Rao

Vishal, finally analysts have kind of based some questions around kind of exit of your top management that we are seeing if you can share your thoughts, is this is the end of exit that everybody talks about, so what is being done to stop attrition at the top management level?

Vishal Sikka

Well, I am actually quite comfortable with our leadership team. If you think about the situation that our industry is in at present, we need to go through a dual transformation - both of the work that we do and what is happening in world around us and the world of our clients, this is not an easy transformation. If you just look at in the last 10 years the number of Fortune 500 companies, something like 168 of the Fortune 500 companies are not there anymore in the Fortune 500. All of them had innovation departments, all of them worked with big time consultants and so forth. When you think about the nature of innovation in the times that we are living in, it calls for a complete rethinking. Even the companies that manage to transform themselves through this time do it on the basis of an existing cash cow business by leveraging that to fund the new areas and so forth. We do not have that in our industry because the cash cow business itself is the one that is under margin pressure.

So, this is a time that we are in our industry that requires a deep sense of understanding the nature of our transformation and the ability to execute on the transformation without disrupting the business on a day-to-day or a quarter-on-quarter basis. Most of this management comes from within, every once in a while, we hire from the outside and it is essential to maintain this kind of a balance and not everyone manages to make it through this.

We are an extremely dignified company and we wish the employees who have left us very well but we have to continue the execution of our business, the execution of our strategy. I am extremely happy with the management team that we have, myself, Pravin and Ranga as well as our four Presidents - Mohit, Sandeep, Ravi and Rajesh. Now with the establishment of the industry heads on the sales side to further scale and decentralize and improve the focus on accountability on the sales side just as we did 18 months ago in defragmenting and establishing accountability on the delivery side. I am quite satisfied with the work that we have done. Also, perhaps Pravin or Ranga can talk about the stock options and RSU plans that we have put together, that we have rolled it out to the executives a quarter ago and now we have added an additional few layers of management. These are all signs of a company that is dealing with this dual transformation in a very purposeful way. If you look at our overall attrition that has come down further. If you look at our high performer attrition, last quarter I mentioned that the higher performer attrition was 11.5% and now it has come down to single-digits (to 8.9%) because of a very dedicated focus on the retaining, the top performers across the company.

So on all of these signs we are making great progress. I am extremely proud of the leadership team that we have presently and I am confident that we will continue to be able to execute on our strategy. We will continue to obviously hire outside talent, Sangeeta is joining us on Monday, she brings great experience in healthcare as well as in global execution. Sanath just joined us last week to run our Finacle business. Similarly Robin joined us in our leadership team from GE. So, we have to continually expand our management bandwidth, enrich ourselves with new talent from the outside which brings in different perspective and I am one of those myself, I am here now for two years and a quarter. So, we will continue to do that but overall I am extremely satisfied with the way our management team is taking shape for the times ahead.

Madhur

Madhur from BTVI. Segmentally what is expected to outperform in second half and what is the outlook on client addition?

Pravin Rao

On the second half I had responded earlier, I will repeat. We will see some good traction in insurance space, we will see some good traction in the healthcare vertical, we will see good traction in ECS across energy & utilities as well as telecom. These are the segments where we expect to see good traction. Rest of BFSI will probably be muted over the next couple of quarters because of RBS and other headwinds. Retail, difficult to predict, it continues to be volatile. The first quarter was good, second quarter was a bit choppy, so Retail will be a bit volatile. Manufacturing, quarter three is traditionally a weak quarter because of the furloughs but we expect it to pick up in quarter four.

Mohit Joshi

Sure. So I think look for BFS chandra, we had a very good quarter right. We grew at about 5% quarter-on-quarter and we had significant client additions. We had significant large deal wins. Now growth was also pretty much across the board right, we grew across geographies and like we mentioned, we see some potential headwinds in the second half of the year, but growth was consistent across geographies and across clients. Did I answer your question?

Participant

Sandeep, last quarter we spoke about challenges the Retail is facing especially US based retailers are going to see and we are seeing that panning out in second quarter. What is the kind of outlook you have for the Retail sector and for the moment in the BFSI space RBS has been a bit low and you also spoke about some headwinds that are coming in. Can you just elaborate on those headwinds?

Sandeep Dadlani

So in Retail, we continue to see very choppy consumer spending. If you look at consumer spending for August, it was flat, but now early report from September looks like it is coming back and if we have a good holiday season, obviously that changes everything, but fundamentally Retail as an industry is getting disrupted. We saw large retailers come out very publically and say that they are changing their business model fundamentally. They are going to look more like e-commerce companies. So the nature of spending is going through a big disruption. If you look at consumer goods which is very closely linked to Retail and counted in the same vertical, these companies are adopting Automation and reducing their employee size dramatically, the top 3 consumer goods companies in the world have never had a smaller employee base than ever before. So these two industries and then in Transportation, we saw large shipping liner in Korea just collapsed because of overcapacity. So Transportation and Shipping is also not going through a great time. These are choppy industries. What is Infosys doing about it if you looked at quarter one, we grew these industries by more than 5.5% and perhaps captured more market share than anybody else in the market that showed tremendous investments that we have made especially in Digital along with Ravi and in acquisitions like Skava etc. These industries have been the first to adopt Automation. They have been the first to adopt new software as well. If you look at Q2 this quarter as well, while the headline reads it is almost flattish sort of quarter for Retail, CPG. I think if you look at the market, many other market players are shrunk. So in terms of capturing market share, in terms of capturing incremental revenue over Q1 and Q2 and scrapping it out for revenue in a tough market, I think we have done well. I think Q3 is a seasonally weak quarter for all of Retail, Logistics, CPG in general because of the holiday season, but I continue to believe that the way we are leveraging our investments in the market, we will continue to gain and capture market share in these industries.

Participant

Are you also facing value compression in the sector because as you take up Automation and Artificial Intelligence, the value of large deals are going to shrink and discretionary spending is almost nil or very minimum. So are you seeing that kind of challenge apart from these economic headwinds which are coming and hitting you this kind of headwind as well?

Sandeep Dadlani

I think discretionary spending in Retail, CPG, Logistics, and for that matter Manufacturing, I do not believe that it is going to get tight as such, but the nature is going to fundamentally change. So if I approach these discretionary spend buckets with the traditional IT services mindset, my reaction will be oh, it becoming tight, it is going nowhere etc. but if I approach it with a people plus software mindset, then I would like to believe that these industries will spend in a very select manner in a very different mix of CAPEX and OPEX in differentiated software surrounded which is amplifying the services model in a unique way. Our attempt is going to be to capture that second type of discretionary spend more than anything else. So it is not as much in terms of discretionary spend shrinking versus discretionary spends changing in its fundamental nature.

Mohit Joshi

I think on the Financial Services side as well, look again everything is relative right, performance is relative and you have seen the numbers coming from our competitors and you have seen the outlook that they have given for the quarter and for the whole year. So from that perspective, we have really had a sterling first half of the year right in Financial Services. If you look at like I mentioned in Q2 itself, we had 5.2% constant currency growth which equates to I think double digit year-on-year growth. If you look at the number of client additions, we added 13 clients. Pravin spoke about the fact that if you look at the large deals and we have really had a remarkable quarter this year in terms of large deal wins, something like 60% of that came from Financial Services. So obviously in the first half of the year the message that we have for our clients like Sandeep mentioned right the Software plus Services message is really resonating well even in a challenging environment. So on the renew side with all the work we are doing in Automation and Industrialization and on the new side all the work that we are doing on Digital, on Design Thinking, on Transformation, that is really resonating with our clients. Obviously as we look to Q3 and Q4, there are couple of things that are happening. We have already spoken about the headwinds that are coming from the ramp-downs that we announced earlier in the year at RBS. There are also challenges because of the very low interest rate regime that you are seeing across the world right and what this really means is that it challenges the revenue for banks, it challenges the ability to give long-term forecast and therefore there is something that we considering when we are presenting our perspective for the second half of the year. Underneath I just wanted to stress that there are three things, one is our competitive position is extremely strong and you have seen that in the results this quarter. Second that the Software plus Services message is really resonating well. So our key message of new and renew is very much in line with the challenges and the opportunities that banks see and finally that there is turbulence in the environment, but I think the turbulence does not detract from our fundamental competitive strength in BFSI.

Adith Charlie

Hi gentlemen, this is Adith Charlie from CNBC-TV18, couple of quick questions if can I start with you Sandeep. Could you give us some clarity on what to expect in Q3 from the Americas region especially because Q3 is seasonally a weak quarter you have furloughs, you have holidays and also you have the US elections coming up. So are you bracing for any unexpected slowdown compared to say Q3 of last year. Secondly on the consulting front, Vishal talked about strategic shift really. So I wanted to understand what is the nature of the shift? Are you moving from a technology-led consulting approach to a management-led consulting approach or is it more of Design Thinking sort of an interplay and finally..

Participant

And finally essentially Vishal was talking about having problems on the Consulting side, the execution problems really. Wanted to understand from you where exactly has this been sorted and what kind of issues have been addressed on the execution part of Consulting as well?

Adith Charlie

And one final question on the geography front, we have seen India and Europe. Europe has been relatively stable despite Brexit. India I think there has been 28%-29% year-on-year growth. So is it a one-off? Are we finally seeing India business ramping up better than expect? Thank you.

Sandeep Dadlani

So you take the Consulting, I will take the Americas one and then India may be you can take.

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

So on the Consulting side, we have had some structural challenges and structural issues. We have taken action to address some of that. So you would have seen in the results this quarter we have stabilized the revenue situation, we did have a decline last quarter, we have arrested that; however, I believe that this is work-in-progress. I think we still have some time to go before we can announce victory on this. We are working on making sure that the changes we are making are in alignment with the broader Infosys strategy. I think the conversation which Vishal is having and message Vishal is giving, if you step back and look at the Consulting profession as it has evolved, it has primarily evolved around 3 axis. So typically Consulting professionals have built their careers either on a domain or building a domain capability or building capabilities in a functional area or building on technology. I think given the state of the industry given the pace at which technology changes coming at us, a true consultant today actually has to bring a combination of these. You have to bring the right functional expertise, you have to understand the domain, but you also have to come armed with the right tool sets and the technology which will allow you to accelerate the consultation which you provide to your clients and I think that is the journey we are on and given the direction of Infosys as well with the focus on Automation on our AI platforms, the focus on Innovation, Consulting will be a key part on this journey and all our investments are going to be around that. We will ensure that our Consulting division in some ways becomes the tip of the spear for the services which we take to markets.

Participant

We should say another 2 or 4 quarters really to stem the entire problems in terms of execution in Consulting and look at that timeline essentially?

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

That is right. I think we are talking about anywhere between 2 to 4 quarters to really stabilize this. We will probably see some challenges because we talked about declines in some key clients in Mohit's portfolio. Consulting also will be impacted by that because Consulting was also a key part of that transformation program. But that is a one-off transaction, but I do believe that we will require anywhere between 2-3 quarters to stabilize this and ensure that it is on a firm footing to accompany Infosys on its journey towards the high growth ambition we set for ourselves.

Sandeep Dadlani

Thanks Rajesh. Americas the election rhetoric and the noise has never been louder as you have seen. So it does create some uncertainty in the business environment, in the consumer spending environment. Headwinds are in Financial Services, the industry has talked about it, but of course we have Mohit's leadership to counter that in Q3. We also have seasonally weak quarters in sectors like Retail, Manufacturing, Hi-Tech where there are furloughs, but then the global semiconductor index showed the highest sales ever in September than ever before. So there are headwinds which are usual for Q3, but again I feel Infosys is armed with the right leadership, the right assets for example the robotic process automation market is booming and Infosys has a very powerful product called AssistEdge to take advantage of that market. Software assets like Skava which is now relevant across Rajesh's industry, Mohit's industry and my industries are unique, other competitors do not have that. So our goal will always be that in a seasonally weak quarter to counter it with a unique Software plus Services strategy, our unique leadership strategy and then of course Ravi being the head of delivery, delivering very well with initiatives like Zero Distance and Zero Bench successfully.

Participant

Just to add to answer which you said, Mana or Skava, are they replacing existing services which you are providing or are they bringing in incremental revenue to your stream?

Sandeep Dadlani

They are doing both right. So look at all our Automation platforms that we have, they are helping Ravi and team deliver massive automation to existing programs. If you look at Skava however, it is an ecommerce platform which was in fact launched as a full blown ecommerce platform just last month and has already taken on some of the largest ecommerce players in the world and won successfully. If you look at our press release today, there are two or three clients across industries, not just in retail talking and endorsing Skava in a big way. These are absolutely new type of revenues that Infosys or the rest of our competitors have never seen before.

If you look at EdgeVerve, and in particular AssistEdge, the robotic process automation software, that market size IDC estimated it to be about $5 billion last year looking out to 2020, that market size has suddenly exploded to $16 billion in 2020, that market automates business processes, that market did not exist earlier. Now, we are going out and exploiting that market with what we think is a world leading product.

So, in many ways some of these new platforms are helping Ravi automate his services, improve productivity, share productivity savings of the clients but they are also driving new streams of revenues for us.

Ravi Kumar S.

The India geography has been very stable for us, there was one large program for the government which has contributed to the growth this quarter and that will continue for the next few quarters.

Rahul Daima

Hi, gentlemen. This is Rahul Daima from ET Now. Ravi, firstly coming to you, how have you been improving this Zero Distance initiative? And as far as take us through the tangible benefits in the conversations that you have had with clients. And also, a bit on the new organization structure, breaking down, I assume it is to about 10 to 15 units, how will that pan out?

And Rajesh, if you could just give us sense of the Brexit impact and also in the backdrop of the Pound depreciation. And also a general trend as far as client spending in the Europe is concerned, how does it pan out.

And probably Mohit, you could add, we are seeing a drop in the revenues from the top clients, be it top 5 or top 10, of course it talks about the larger consumer sentiment but how do you see it pan out in the coming two quarters? Thank you.

Ravi Kumar S.

Sure. So, we have started Zero Distance pretty much almost a year ago. The idea was to look for incremental innovation, adjacent innovation and repeatable assets which we could build on projects which we do, and it is a grounds-up innovation process. Never before a grounds-up innovation of this size and this scale has been attempted in a corporation of this size. So, that was the biggest attempt on bringing innovation grass roots, we do not believe that innovation should be done in a department, it should be in every project that we do.

The initial focus was on coverage, the initial focus was on building great content on innovation and that is what we have focused for the last few quarters. And in the last one or two quarters, including this quarter, we have had significant monetization of Zero Distance. The idea was to look for these innovation templates which all our project teams have written, take it to clients, show and tell of what our teams think about, either by a prototype or a rapid proof of concept and then convert them into projects. So, a lot of those projects are measured on value, value for our clients, value for Infosys and we have incentivized our teams, our project teams based on the value that we actually delivered for clients. So, this is possibly the most unique model of looking at innovation. We used a bench to build those prototypes, one of the reasons why our utilization went up this quarter, structurally we looked at ways to get a fresher utilization up, our fresher utilization went up because they got experience on these templates and this proof of concepts. And thereafter they got into projects which actually got created from Zero Distance. So, in a way it did help our offshore utilization to go up and Zero Distance is some sense the most unique way of looking at innovation at the grass roots.

Rahul Daima

The way we are structured?

Ravi Kumar S.

Yes, on structure we always had a consolidated delivery structure with service lines spanning across the world across the industries. So, that structure has been in place for the last 18 months. What we have done now on the sales side under Rajesh, Mohit and Sandeep, we have created industry segments and sub-segments and those are self-contained units for propelling growth in the market. So, the idea was to give agility in the market on the sale side, on delivery we always had a consolidated structure. Though the structure on delivery remains the same, on the sale side we have created those integrated industry segment so that we could focus in the market on specific industry sub-segments.

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

On the impact of Brexit, I think if you look at this quarter Europe actually grew 3.3% in constant currency terms, in real terms it has grown a lot less because of currency impact. I think while Brexit is still being, we are still going to look at the impact of it coming through over the next few quarters and maybe even longer than that, I think clearly it has shaken the confidence in the European market, while there may not be a direct correlation of a potential Brexit versus what is going to happen in the industries, clearly we are seeing early signs of that. While you cannot be able to directly correlate the decision of Brexit, for example a project cancellation, clearly it has impacted the long-term projections of growth in certain key markets, it has questioned the viability of certain projects and therefore we are clearly seeing a slowdown there, I think Mohit's industries probably has the biggest immediate impact and we are seeing that. I think RBS, while may not be a direct impact of that decision, I think there is definitely a secondary impact. The other industries too are going to see some of this, there is overall, if you look at the projections in terms of the growth rates of the key markets has been lowered in the last few months and that will have potential impact in the long-term. But I think it is a bit too early to really quantify the impact, from our perspective the way we look at it is our revenues in Europe are only about 24% - 25%, we have a lot of headroom to grow, there are a lot of industries where we are under penetrated, so we are continuing to chug along, continue to make investments in our key markets and we believe that for us there is still a lot of headroom to grow.

Participant

Mohit, would you want to chip in as far as the dip in the top lines are concerned?

Mohit Joshi

Sure. So, on the Brexit piece, like Rajesh mentioned, I think it is maybe too early to tell but we are seeing some degree of uncertainty in client spends and we are seeing some client concern about what the long-term direction of the economy will be. But equally it could also throw up opportunities for us if there is separation, if there is new regulation, if there is a transfer of certain entities from UK to Europe, it could throw opportunities for us as well. As far as the question on large client growth is concerned, I think it is simply a one quarter thing, you have seen the previous few quarters that our large clients have grown faster than the rest of the organization and that remains our aspiration and we are fairly confident that we will come back to that. This is to my mind a one-off aberration.

Participant

Rajesh, you have mentioned that RBS had an impact on you, can you elaborate on that what kind of impact in terms of revenues you had? Because Vishal spoke about the fact that there are a couple of service lines which need a lot of transformation, which includes consulting and BPO and if someone can speak on BPO as well, what you are doing to transform the entire service line of BPO?

And one for Ravi, you mentioned that the GST revenues would be going for next couple of quarters…

Ravi Kumar S.

No, I did not mention that. I actually said the project will go along for the next few quarters.

Participant

So, have the revenues come in entirely in this quarter or will the revenues be..

Ravi Kumar S.

So, I cannot comment on the revenues for the program…

Participant

India revenues grew by 1% in terms of overall revenues.

Ravi Kumar S.

No, so I cannot comment on the revenues for GSTN but the project will continue, as you are aware. And that is a big program for us in India and that is one of our largest program, that is one of the reasons why the India geography had a uptick in this quarter.

Mohit Joshi

I think, I do not think I can disclose too much information about the program or where the various components of revenue came from. In the analyst meet as well as in the official disclosure we have mentioned that this was a large program, that we saw about 3000 people who will ramp down as a result of their decision and that the ramp down will start from Q3 and carry on. I do not think we can give service line wise distribution, however as Rajesh mentioned, this does have an impact beyond just our traditional application development and maintenance service line to include other service lines also.

Participant

Rajesh, how much of ramp down will be there in consulting because of that or is it included in the 3000?

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

So, the overall impact is across different service lines, consulting had a significant share in that business as well in the range of 25% - 30%, so there will be that impact.

Participant

In BPO?

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

Yes. So, BPO we have started a transformation process, you have seen the growth this quarter, this has been a good healthy quarter for BPO, if you look at it for the last four or five quarters you would see that. Traditionally BPO services which focuses on outsourcing a process, in my view does not have a lot of growth in the market, the growth really in the future comes from digitizing the process, innovating the process and automating the process. So, our ability to bring technology to BPO so that we could digitize, automate and innovate a process will be our biggest differentiator in the market and that is what we are making an attempt on. There are rather new interesting areas in BPO, we could create insights and analytics on top of business process, we could bundle Mana into BPO services, we could create digital media operations on BPO services. So, our endeavor of BPO is to create a new paradigm, a new league of BPO services in the market and that is the transformation we have started, this quarter is the first one in a way and it has given us some initial runway and we will see momentum as we go forward. But it will really not come from traditional services, it will come from new services of BPO which will be the next big thing in BPO.

Participant

Is there a timeline for that?

So, all these new services always come with a ramp and you need to go through that ramp. We strongly believe these services are very relevant to clients, these services are going to transform our BPO business, this is the first quarter where we have done well in BPO and I am quite sure the trajectory will continue this way.

Vishal Sikka

Thanks, Sandeep. Hi Everyone! And Welcome to our Q2 Earnings Call.

We had a good overall performance in Q2. You will recall that during our Analyst Day in Pune in August, we had outlined certain expectations on Q2 performance. We had mentioned that we would focus strongly on execution in Q2 and expected Q2 revenue growth to be better than Q1. We had also mentioned that we would focus on certain drag factors from Q1 such as Consulting, Finacle and India.

I am happy to report that as a result of our strong focus on execution in Q2, our sequential revenue growth was 3.5% in reported terms and 3.9% in constant currency terms. This compares to Q1 in which we had 2.2% growth in reported and 1.7% in constant currency terms. Consulting, India and Finacle have all performed better in Q2 compared to Q1. We will continue to monitor the performance of Consulting closely in the coming quarters as it still faces headwinds.

Our Core IT Services had robust growth of 4.7% in constant currency terms in Q2; volume growth was 4%. We continue to see adoption of our new services by our clients and are focusing on building a healthy pipeline for our new services. I am particularly excited about the interest from clients in our knowledge-based AI platform - Infosys Mana, both in helping them renew their core businesses and especially in helping them explore and define new areas. I will talk more about this in a little bit.

Coming to strategy execution, we have been sharing with you certain key indicators that we track to assess the trajectory of these parameters. During the quarter, we had large deal wins of $1.209 bn. This includes committed value deal wins of 138 mn and Framework deals of $1,071 mn.

In terms of client metrics, our top-10 clients grew year-over-year 3.7%, our top-25 clients grew 4.3% while non-top-25 clients grew 10.6% in reported terms. The number of $50 mn clients increased by 2 to 54 and the number of $100 mn clients increased by 1 to 18.

We continued our strong focus on improvement in operational efficiency parameters such as utilization. I will talk more about our Zero Bench and Zero Distance initiatives as they pertain to this in a little bit, also on onsite/offshore mix, subcon expenses and cost optimization. Ranga will provide more details on these in his remarks.

Our operating margins improved 80 basis points from 24.1% in Q1 to 24.9% in Q2. Among large verticals, growth was led by Financial Services and Insurance which grew 5.2% on constant currency and Energy, Utilities, Communications and Services which grew 7.3% on constant currency. We had robust all around growth across all geographies.

We added 12,717 employees on a gross basis and 2,779 on net basis. Headcount at the end of the quarter was 199,829, so just a little shy of 200,000. Attrition for the quarter declined further to 15.7% for Infosys Limited standalone and 20.0% for the entire group. The high performer attrition, an area of special focus for us, continue to decline.

We will continue to seek opportunities in M&A and investments. In this quarter we invested in Cloudyn, a cloud spend optimization startup in Israel.

In Pune, we had also announced that in order to further enhance client focus and our agility in the market, we would create smaller industry segments in sale. We have completed this exercise and the new structure is effective as of today. Similarly, we reorganized our delivery organization in April 2015 wherein we consolidated and defragmented our various service lines under Ravi’s leadership. We have seen significant benefits out of the delivery organization, as seen in stronger service line focus and improved operational efficiencies and stronger ownership by the leaders. We see a similar opportunity in sales through the smaller, more agile, more focused and more accountable industry segments.

Coming to the Business Outlook for FY17, you will recall that in Pune, we said we will be in a better position to provide the business outlook for FY17 after delivering Q2 and assessing the business environment for Q3 and Q4. We had indicated that we see more headwinds than when we entered Q2. During the course of Q2, we have seen signs of cautious client behavior. Our announcement on RBS ramp-down is an example of this. Over the last couple of weeks, several of our peers have also indicated a softer business environment leading to a more cautious outlook for FY17. After considering our H1 performance and the near-term business outlook based on the visibility and our assessment, at this point in time we expect our revenue growth for FY17 to be 8% to 9% in constant currency terms.

Now, let me share a few thoughts on the execution of our Renew and New strategy through automation and innovation and how we are fueling this through a culture of education and learning: In Renew, in Q2, we made good progress on our strategy to renew our core services and help our clients renew their core businesses through automation and through grass-roots innovation. We are accelerating this by monetizing Zero Distance, bringing our Knowledge-based AI platform, Mana to all aspects of our service offerings including leveraging Mana internally and continuing to drive value from the bench.

Our traditional services of Application Development, Infrastructure Management and Product Engineering, all grew above the company average. Zero Distance, our program to bring innovation to every project is enabling us to deepen our existing client relationships, show differentiation to help us win new opportunities and provide tangible examples of Infosys as a strategic partner for our clients for grass-roots ongoing innovation. Zero Distance continues to cover more than 95% of all our projects and it is truly a grass-roots innovation movement across entire Infosys. We are now elevating this further to drive greater value for our clients and converting ideas into solutions. Hundreds of Zero Distance ideas are being implemented in client projects with many of them converted into new business opportunities generating commercial value for Infosys.

Regarding Mana, I am really excited to see the growing interest from client and in the industry and we are in the process of building a strong pipeline. While we are in the early stages and revenue impact is insignificant for the quarter, we saw continued adoption in client successes. Internally, we are leveraging our own automation solutions to drive greater efficiency into all parts of our service line.

In Q2, Ravi estimates that we saved close to 2,400 FTEs worth of effort across service lines primarily in Application Maintenance, Package System Maintenance, BPO and Infrastructure Management. Going forward, we will go beyond automation and apply the Knowledge-based AI capabilities of Mana to more complex scenarios with the focus on increasing productivity.

Zero Bench, which is our program to engage employees in value creation while they are between projects has created more than 26,000 work packets already with many of these being generated by Zero Distance ideas and nearly 12,000 work packets have been completed. This has ensured that almost all of our bench capacity is engaged and we are already seeing benefits in terms of additional revenue as well as margin improvements through the solution created. As a result of gaining valuable experience on these Zero Bench assignments, more than 1,000 additional freshers went directly into client projects in the first half of fiscal ’17 versus first half of fiscal ’16 and you also see this contribute to the improved utilization. In new areas, we continue to grow our new services and products in Q2 and help our clients drive breakthrough innovation. In particular, we are working with a number of clients and partners on leveraging new technologies, especially AI technologies including Machine Learning to drive large scale transformations. Our AI platform Mana is key to this and we will accelerate our work in new areas with Mana.

We also announced in September our new ‘Incubation as a Service’, a dedicated Infosys team that will be the innovation engine for our clients leveraging our learning experiences across industries and our work in emerging technologies. We will run this model with co-creation and collaboration with clients at the heart of what we offer, founded on the principles of Design Thinking.

Skava continue to help clients create new kinds of customer engagement across channel, for example, Infosys and TOMS Shoes are working together to implement an Omni Channel platform leveraging Skava Commerce. In Q2, we launched Java Commerce, a new standard for Modern Mobile-First Modular eCommerce Platform.

EdgeVerve delivered a strong performance this quarter with 48 wins, 23 Go Lives from both Finacle and Edge suite of solutions across various markets. Edge products added several new clients this quarter across various solutions with AssistEdge leading with 8 new wins.

We continue to bring Design Thinking into every client engagement, for example, we are working with Kohl’s, the large US retailer to leverage Design Thinking together with our Skava platform on how to enhance customer experience, sales associates and the overall Kohl’s experience.

In Culture, we continue to invest in our employees and in learning and education. In education and in training, this quarter we added focus on collaboration to every class offered in Mysore. This is based on learning from our data scientist class in which we saw the code quality was significantly improved through collaboration. Specifically, we reduced the number of code issues to 35% for individuals and down to 12% in a group of 10 people. We are also introducing new kinds of programs including Udacity in Nanodegree and Coursera for rapid upscaling when needed for the most in demand niche skills. We continue to roll out the equity program with the first phase to mid and junior level high performers already complete. We will be extending this to the leadership levels as we look at programs to retain our best leaders and attract new leaders to our company.

Looking beyond business, at Infosys, we are deeply aware of our role in society which is beyond business. In India, through the Infosys Foundation, we made several investments in the areas of Rehabilitation, Healthcare, Education and Arts and Culture including handing over the Residential Enclave of 200 Houses to families that were ended homeless in the aftermath of the Hudhud Cyclone in 2014. We launched an Institute of Robotic Surgery to support the Narayana Hrudayalaya and funding travel stipends for top researchers at IIT, Kharagpur as well as sponsoring an IIT Kharagpur Study about the Antiquity of the Indus Valley. Infosys Foundation USA supported Quality Computer Science and maker professional development for teachers via the Computer Science Professional Development Week, the CS for All Community Giving Program and commitments announced at the US White House Summit on Computer Science for All. Additionally, the foundation announced new grants to support the Largest Computer Science Teacher Organization recognize excellence in Computer Science Teaching for Awards and assist the New York Academy of Sciences. All of these are things that we continue to be proud of.

I will now hand it over and closing to Ranga to provide more details on financials before coming back to Q&A. Thank you.

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

Thanks, Vishal. Hello, Everyone

Let me start by saying that in Q2 we focus sharply on improving further the operational efficiency of our business and continue to focus on healthy cash generation. I am happy to report that we have seen further improvement on both these fronts.

Our revenues in Q2 were Rs.17,310 crores, this is a growth of 3.1% sequentially in rupee terms. On a year-on-year basis, when compared to Q2 fiscal ’16, our Q2 ’17 revenues have grown by 10.7% in rupee terms. In dollar terms, revenues grew sequentially by 3.5% on reported basis and 3.9% in constant currency basis. On a year-on-year basis, when compared to Q2 fiscal ’16, revenues have grown 8.2% in dollar terms and 8.9% in constant currency terms. H1’17 revenue growth as compared to H1’16 was 9.5% in reported terms and 10.5% in constant currency terms.

Volumes grew healthily by 4.0% during the quarter as compared to 2.2% in Q1’17. On quarter-on-quarter basis, Onsite volume grew by 3.1% and offshore volume grew by 4.4%. Realization for the quarter increased 0.2% on reported basis and 0.7% in constant currency basis compared to Q1’17. On year-on-year basis, realization declined by 3.6% and on reported basis 3% in constant currency.

Several operational efficiency parameters improved during the quarter. Our utilization excluding trainees increased 200 basis points to 82.5%. Similarly, utilization including trainees went up to 77.7%. Over the last six quarters, utilization excluding trainees has been consistently above 80%. Onsite mix reduced to 29.7% during the quarter and we are focusing on bringing this down gradually; however, there could be quarter-on-quarter volatility.

Subcontractor expenses again were at 5.4% of revenues, similar to Q1’17 level but still lower than 5.5% that we saw in Q2’16. Employee benefit cost as a percentage of revenue was 55.7% as compared to 55.3% in Q1’17, primarily on account of compensation increases as well as higher variable pay that we paid to our employees this quarter offset by better utilization. On a comparable basis, Q2’16 employee benefit cost as a percentage of revenues were 54.7%.

On the collections front, our account receivable collections have been very healthy. DSO for the quarter was 64-days as compared to 66-days, a decline of 2-days as compared to Q1’17.

As Vishal said, our operating margins for the quarter was 24.9%, increase of 80 basis points over Q1’17. Improvement in utilization and onsite mix contributed to 100 basis points to margin improvement. This was offset by increase in third-party software cost which negatively impacted margins by 60 basis points. The benefit of cost optimization initiatives onsite and lower visa charges offset the impact of higher variable pay that we paid to employees this quarter and compensation increases by 40 basis points, thus leading to a net increase of 80 basis points expansion in margin.

Our emphasis on healthy operating cash flow generation continued in this quarter; operating cash flow generation was strong during the quarter, partly helped by tax refunds of about Rs.350 crores. We generated operating cash flow of Rs.3,698 crores in Q2 as compared to Rs.3,130 crores in last year same quarter. Our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30^th was Rs.35,640 crores as compared to Rs.33,212 crores last quarter.

We added 12,717 gross employees during the quarter with a net addition of 2,779 employees. The quarterly annualized attrition on a standalone basis has also decreased marginally to 15.7% from 15.8% last quarter. At the group level, annualized attrition was 20% as against 21% last quarter.

As you know, Q2 saw volatility in currency especially in the backdrop of Brexit. We managed to navigate the volatility effectively during the quarter. On a period, end basis, USD appreciated by 3.6% against GBP and depreciated by 0.3% against Euro and 2.2% against Australian Dollar. Our hedge position as of September 30, 2016 was $1,037 mn. We expect near-term volatility in cross-currency and rupee and we continue to manage the same through appropriate hedges.

Yield on cash balances was 7.77% in Q2’17 compared to 7.82% in Q1’17. We expect the yield for FY’17 to be approximately 7.5% as compared to 8.6% in FY’16 due to interest rate environment in India.

The Effective Tax Rate for the quarter was 28.8%; full year Effective Tax Rate projection at this point in time is expected to be around 29%.

Our net margins during the quarter were 20.8% compared to 20.5%, an increase of 30 basis points over Q1’17. Our EPS for the quarter was Rs.15.77, EPS grew 6.1% on year-on-year basis and 4.9% on sequential basis.

Coming to Clients and Business Segments: Our number of $100 mn clients further increased by 1 to 18, it was 17 last quarter and $50 mn clients increased to 54, an expansion by 2. Active clients count now stands at 1,136 as compared to 1,126 last quarter.

Coming to Margin Expectations: We will continue to optimize the operational efficiency levers on an ongoing basis. We have said that in the medium-term our operating margin expectation is in the range of 24% to 26%. However, considering the expectations on growth trajectory for the second half of the year and as revenue growth is one of the key determinants of margins, we expect the fiscal 2017 margins to be in the range of 24% to 25%.

With that, we will open the floor for questions.

Moderator

Thank you very much, sir. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question-and-answer session. Our first question is from the line of Sandeep Muthangi from India Infoline.

Sandeep Muthangi

Good quarter. Congrats. I have a question on the implied outlook for the second half. Vishal, when you look at your customers, the sense that you get is it primarily stoppage of some near-term discretionary work that is going to impact a lot in 3Q or is it even pull back of some of these medium term plans because of which you think the low growth could carry on for some time?

Vishal Sikka

No, it is not that. It is specific to a few clients and some of the seasonality that you see in Q3 in certain industries with less working days and furloughs and so forth. So, it is a combination of those things and a couple of our own internal work and service lines that we are working to renew which has been going slower than we expected. But by and large in some segments there is certain weakness. So, it is a combination of those things but I would not say it is anything particularly structural that is having such an impact on the near-term. What is having an impact at a structural level is the decline in the overall pricing environment and the sort of the downward spiral that I have talked about for the last two years, and Ranga mentioned again we have continued to see that pricing pressure. My sense is that it is only going to intensify and that is a structural thing that we must address through a combination of automation and innovation and this is a much more fundamental transformation. On that front, which is a long-term structural front, I am very happy with the progress that we are making and we continue to accelerate our progress both on embracing automation in our existing services with our platform as well as in deploying that same platform for new kinds of problems and in bringing in a very deep rooted sense of a culture of innovation at the grass roots level in every project which we call Zero Distance. All of these have started to produce very noticeable results now and I am very encouraged by that. Although that is a more structural thing, the rest of it, things that impact the numbers on quarterly basis are more tactical and near-term and it is a combination of a couple of clients and some of the seasonality and things of this nature.

Sandeep Muthangi

Just one question on the RBS thing. In case like this where you would have invested time and money and resources on ramping up such projects and they abruptly ramp down, would you have any recourse to getting a compensatory payment from RBS?

Vishal Sikka

Maybe Pravin can comment on that. It depends on client specific situation and contracts and so forth. Generally, in our business the ramp ups take a while and ramp downs are immediate, so that is just the nature of the business and how our revenue generation works. Having said that, we can have various mitigating measures depending on the situation in contracts and things like that. Perhaps Pravin can comment on that.

Pravin Rao

See, typically it depends on the nature of the project. In a fixed project or in projects where we made upfront investment, we have a termination cost. Like last year in the second quarter in one of the clients we had an unfortunate end of a project and client paid the termination cost which you are probably familiar with. Now, similarly in the case of RBS it is more of T&M project, so there we have a notice period that is typical practice. In RBS also we got the notice period that was contractually given. The idea is that with the notice period we should be able to have enough time to ramp down and find alternate opportunities for the people.

Moderator

Thank you. We have the next question from the line of Ankur Rudra from CLSA. Please go ahead.

Ankur Rudra

First, Vishal, over the last two years under your leadership, we have seen the philosophy of guidance very straightforward, you say it as you see it. And this time we have seen a 250 basis points cut to the guidance. I am guessing this bakes in RBS. But has there been any change in our philosophy. Are you baking in anything beyond what you see this time compared to before? That is my first question.

Vishal Sikka

No, we are not baking anything. I love the way you said it, say as you see it. I am going to use that in the future if you allow me to. What I have said is somewhat more exotic thing about minimizing the asymmetry of information between management and market and all that which sounds like some kind of rocket science. The bottom-line is that we want to share with you what we see and we see an atmosphere where there is a dual compounding of the forecast and stuff that we see. One is the atmosphere outside, factors such as Brexit, RBS or these kind of things which can have volatile impact on what we do. The other is our own internal parameters like what we had with our work in consulting and so forth that we are working on. Our competition has also indicated softness in their outlook and things of this nature. So there is a certain sense of that. But we are baking in all the information that we see presently including RBS and all of these things, but there is no change in philosophy.

Ankur Rudra

So, just going from there, given the very sharp cut to guidance, basically we are baking in between a decline of 0.6% for the next two quarters to a growth of 0.5% sequentially, Infosys growth was 13% constant currency in FY16, 15% in fact in the March quarter. Basically, you are guiding to a very-very sharp slowdown to 8.5% which is probably in line with peers but given your progress on clients on deal wins, it just does not stack up with the whole thing. So where do you explain this very sharp deceleration despite all the other initiatives being taking place?

Vishal Sikka

See compared to what we say at the beginning of the year and then what we saw at the beginning of the quarter, as we said when we were in Pune, even though we had lowered the guidance at the beginning of Q2, the atmosphere that we saw over the course of Q2 continued and became worse and we shared this in Pune already in late August. So that is contributing to what we see. I do not believe that there is anything fundamental or structural that is contributing to the lowering of the guidance other than the fact that the change that is happening in the industry around the pricing pressure and so forth. When we sum total all of that based on what we see, this is the guidance that we get to.

Ankur Rudra

Just if you could clarify this thing about frame deals and non-frame deals, because historically we have not seen this consistently. Is there any change in the definition because the mix appears to have changed, it is almost 90% non-frame deals. Any sort of guidance what is happening there and does it indicate softness because your non-frame deals which is what you used to track earlier primarily appears to have fallen to just about $100 mn - $200 mn?

Pravin Rao

I do not think so. It is too early to read anything into it. It varies from quarter-to-quarter. Essentially the frame deal is where we are pretty confident that we will get the kind of revenues we are talking about, total TCV over three to five years or whatever the timeframe is, but contractually client has not committed to that. But by and large based on our past experience, based on what client says, barring contractually signing it we are comfortable with that and that is what we are calling out. The other category is where client has contractually committed. But I think it is too early to read anything into it, it varies from quarter-to-quarter.

Moderator

Thank you. We have the next question from the line of Edward Caso from Wells Fargo. Please go ahead.

Edward Caso

My question is around the willingness of clients to change the way they contract to allow you to share all your automation efforts. How willing maybe, a new engagement to move away from the typical time and materials model to a more fixed price or fixed outcome model?

Vishal Sikka

Ed, this is a great question. How we deal with that transformation is one of the fundamental pillars on which the transformation of the company is going to be based as we look over the next several years. Of course in our case our automation endeavor is Infosys Mana, our platform. Now, when you look at the fixed price projects where we bring this to our existing ongoing effort, obviously as a part of the ongoing effort, Mana would produce certain productivity improvement. In a fixed price case we would be able to utilize the benefits of that. In T&M cases one of the things that we do is we proactively engage in conversations where Mana, while it applies to the work that we do in the T&M case is a separate tool kit that brings additional economics which allows us to improve the T&M economics while keeping T&M wherever that is and transforming that into fixed price or outcome based project is not an option. So, this is generally how that works. It is extremely important that Mana be a standalone AI platform on which customers and other partners can continue to build amazing applications of Artificial Intelligence and that is one of the key reasons that we have adopted this strategy of not just a AI platform for our own use but also one that is honest, it is exposed to the light of the outside world and continues to help clients imagine new kinds of application from digital farming to reimagining the physical-digital retail experiences to compliance, to internet of things, asset efficiency and areas that are completely unrelated to the kind of services that we bring. Of course, when it applies to our services it is based on the approach that I shared with you. So, this is something that is extremely important to our future and while this is still an early time, this is the second quarter that we have had of bringing Mana to our clients and we have seen very healthy adoption and successes already of clients and some of those we have shared in our press release and in other places. Of course, the revenue contribution from Mana itself is very insignificant. However, the adoption that we are seeing in the market and the results that we are achieving, both for our own operational improvement as well as a standalone tool kit are quite encouraging.

Edward Caso

I think I heard that you had a good quarter in banks and insurance, I was just curious if you had some more macro commentary in those two areas as far as pace of new business or has the movement in the growth rates been more clients’ specific? Thank you.

Vishal Sikka

So, let me start and then perhaps Mohit can add. Under Mohit's leadership we have had very strong performance in Financial Services in recent quarters and that has continued to be the case. Of course, there are a couple of cases as you see we have talked about RBS before and so forth. In general, we see a continued strength in Financial Services across the world and with a few exceptions here and there and so forth. In that sense we do not particularly share the negative sentiment that others have shared. But Mohit being an expert on this, he can add more.

Mohit Joshi

So, I think if we look at from a Q2 perspective we really had a stellar Q2. 5.2% constant currency growth in banking and insurance, very significant new client addition, very significant large deal wins. But as we go into Q3 and Q4, there are three things I want to point out. First is that the negative or the low interest rate regime across the world for both insurance and for banking it does mean that spend visibility is getting a little bit lower. The second piece is that our story though of the New and the Renew as Vishal also mentioned is resonating with our clients. What this means is that while the environment is volatile, our competitive position is very strong. As you would have seen in this quarter, I think our growth has outpaced that of the competition if you see the results announced as well as the guidance that has been given. Obviously, one of the headwinds that we have mentioned in the past as well is the very large contract ramp down at RBS.

Moderator

Thank you. Our next question is from the line of Viju George from JP Morgan. Please go ahead.

Viju George

Congratulations to management on a solid Q2. This is just regards the outlook for H2. When you said you are seeing extra softness in the business environment, besides RBS are there any notable instances of clients ramping down or it is just clients being slow to ramp up?

Vishal Sikka

No, it is not additional big clients ramping down in a big way like RBS but just a general slowdown that some of the clients are seeing in our existing business depending on certain segments and a couple of cases of slower ramp up than me are expected. And a couple of our service lines which continue to see some headwinds. We arrested the de-growth, maybe the colleague earlier who had said this thing about ‘say it like you see it’ could come up with a better phrase than arresting de-growth. But nonetheless we have managed to arrest the de-growth in consulting. However we still continue to see some headwinds in consulting and that is largely because of our own execution related issues and Rajesh is dealing with these. So, it is a combination of those kinds of things and not anything else.

Viju Geogre

And on Mana, just want to understand, your earlier IIP and IIP platforms how are they now structured, are they part of Mana? That is question one. A sub-part of this is that when you look at growth over the coming quarters for Mana, when do you think that the growth can be robust enough in achieving incremental revenues so as to compensate for what we might be losing in the traditional core, how much time away are we from that?

Vishal Sikka

So Viju, it is a great question. The revenue depends on the three categories that I mentioned earlier in response to Ed's question. There is the bringing Mana to our existing work in fixed price cases and there it is absorbed in the economics of the project. There is bringing Mana to the existing T&M projects where while Mana might improve the overall economics from our point of view, it does have a corresponding lowering of the time and materials effort on the ongoing project and the benefit of Mana is accrued over the duration of the project. So, there is that thing that we have to weigh in. Of course Mana being a standalone product has its own economics. Then the third case which is a particularly exciting one which is where we use Mana for building new kinds of applications which are unprecedented and this is obviously a very high value, high margin and exciting area but where we do not yet have large scale. So, that is sort of the situation. It is early days. I launched this thing on the 27^th of April and it has been less than six months since it is in market but we are incredibly excited by the kind of client validation that we have seen. In terms of packaging, what used to be IIP (the Information Platform and IAP (the Automation Platform), as well knowledge management and knowledge-based engineering components are all a part of Mana now. And perhaps Sandeep and Naveen who are both here can talk about that.

Sandeep Dadlani

The way we have taken Mana to market right now is really focusing on client adoption, driving new use cases and imagining new ways of leveraging AI along with our clients. Since it has been only a couple of quarters, the focus is not on trying to identify standalone revenue of any kind, focus is on driving the brand, the product, the use cases, the features out in the market. The early sign of adoption is very encouraging, you can see some of the clients endorsing us publicly. As we go along, we will establish separate values for Mana as we go along but right now the focus is on adoption and use cases.

Moderator

Thank you. We have the next question from the line of Diviya Nagrajan from UBS. Please go ahead.

Diviya Nagrajan

Congrats on the strong execution during the quarter. Vishal, a couple of questions. You have been talking about transition in the industry and how this transition you have put in place through different means, but there is this ongoing concern and I think you addressed it in your press conference this morning on how this is impacting your legacy cash cow. How much of the structural challenges today are about right sizing your legacy cash cow in terms of proportion of revenue and how far away do you think are in this transition into that effort?

Vishal Sikka

See, these two things are independent of each other. You asked a complicated question, so I have to take a little bit of time to answer this. When you look at the general transformation of any company, the typical approach that we follow and you can look at innovator’s dilemma or disruption or whatever is that you transformed the existing generally a cash cow business which is high margin and you simplify the savings and optimize that and use that savings to drive the new areas which are next generation which are low margins, but have high revenue potential. So this is generally how the script works no matter which industry you look at and tons of books about it and stuff like that. However in our case, the complicating factor is that the core business is actually under margin pressure which is generally not the case when you look at the disruption script, if you will. Therefore, our approach has been slightly different one. We believe that the revival of our core business is not only about optimizing it for profit, but especially about transforming it on the basis of innovation and on the basis of automation. So this is exactly what we have been doing and under Ravi's leadership, we have seen significant success in this area by bringing in this dual approach of automation impacting the service lines and unleashing the ground swell of grassroots innovation through Zero Distance kinds of programs where our teams are directly engaging with clients to work on this. In parallel to this different kind of revival of the core services business, we have this additional burden of introducing new software and new services that can complement is that are going to help us for the next generation in particular in the software area. Also recently this additional burden that we had further from there around some of the weaker service line like Consulting and BPO that we have had to put additional focus on to revive those. So when you look at the sum total of this, we are talking about a very large scale and complex transformation that we are engaged in here and this means that not everybody who is in the leadership is right for this kind of a massive transformation. So I am extremely happy and proud of the team that we have in place now with myself, Pravin and Ranga as well as our other executive core function and with the 4 Presidents responsible for our business. Today, just as we did with delivery 18 months ago, we have now established this additional scale in our go-to-market functions by introducing 13 new industry heads who are going to be sharply focused on very specific well-encapsulated industry sub-segments who are going to be accountable for that. It will introduce a tremendous agility and scale in how we go-to-market in having them become greater bringing the tip of the spear with consulting as well as the entire power of all the delivery services and our new services. That also gives additional bandwidth to especially to our 3 sales Presidents – Mohit, Sandeep and Rajesh who are in addition to carrying their own vertical responsibilities who also have company wise responsibilities, like Mohit in the area of overall sales execution and Sandeep in the area of bringing new software and services company wide and Rajesh in the area of bringing Consulting and the tip of the spear Design Thinking likes across the company. So this is how I see it. The media gets excited about an executive here and there leaving, but in the overall scheme of things I am very satisfied with the way this thing has been going.

Divya Nagarajan

This is very, helpful So just a follow-up to that, one is that should we then if you add in your concerns on increased pricing pressure, should we then look at your margin target of 30% kind of be much more back-ended than it has been in the last couple of years, that is one? Second follow-up is that again in terms of the transition being complete, how far out are we?

Vishal Sikka

So Divya, when it comes to margin, I cannot say that. While 30% is our target, on a quarterly basis or yearly basis, we will guide on our margin based on what we see. The main thing impacting the margin are the operational efficiency levers where we believe we still have a room to improve. Most importantly the Automation which is the big structural opportunity and there we have the downward force of the pricing pressure but if we do really advance Artificial Intelligence, we can bring automation not only to the more mechanizable simple kinds of areas, but also to the much more complex areas of the business including software development and design were something of this nature. The new services that we are launching which are all high margin services and how quickly can we bring them to scale and how much go-to-market investment we need to bring into that, all of those things impact the margin situation. So I would not assume that this is back-ended. But rather we have to see how these three competing forces evolve over the next quarters. Presently we see like Ranga said earlier 24%-25% for the rest of the year and we will continue to ‘say it like we see it’ as other gentleman said and share more information on that. If it gets to the point where these 3 vectors that I talked about intersect in different ways and we need to relook at how the margin works, we will let you know. But for now we feel comfortable with this.

Divya Nagarajan

Thanks for your time and all the best for the rest of the year.

Moderator

Thank you. Next question is from the line of Ashish Chopra from Motilal Oswal Securities. Please go ahead.

Ashish Chopra

Thanks for the opportunity. Vishal, you did mention about the couple of service lines which continued to be work-in-progress in terms of BPM and Consulting, just a couple of questions that I had on Consulting. Firstly if you could elaborate as to what exactly are the pain points that you would be looking to address within that segment in order to revive it. Secondly also from a demand perspective, would you actually see Consulting as one of the more tougher areas in terms of the demand environment today.

Vishal Sikka

No, the demand environment for Consulting is not tough at all. Rajesh can talk more about this. We have inherited a mixed bag of where our Consulting effort comes from and we are in the middle of transforming that. When we step back and think about Consulting in the large, you realize that the opportunity to help businesses transform themselves for this massive digital disruption that is happening in the world for the adoption of AI, for the complete transformation of the economic models around pervasive connectivity and digital experiences and so forth. There is actually a tremendous opportunity for strategy and design-oriented consulting and helping our clients imagine their future and then bringing in the services of our company to life in order to do that. In that sense that opportunity of what we have found the tip of the spear and transcending package systems towards becoming true design partner for our clients, it still continues to be a huge opportunity. The challenges that we see with our very complex challenges and difficult ones that Rajesh has inherited are they are more operational ones now owing to our own situation. So Rajesh perhaps you can add a few things.

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

Sure thanks Vishal. So I think in Consulting, if you look at the structure we had in Europe, we were running this business pretty much standalone kind of basis, doing a lot of work around business transformation. I think for the journey forward in alignment with the vision of automation on the one hand and innovation the other, I think it is very important that Consulting works ‘hands in glove’ with our go-to-market themes and becomes an integrated part of the journey of Infosys as we transform ourselves. While of course the regular business transformation and large scale package implementation work has dramatically shifted over the years, the large ERP-led transformation work which used to be the backbone on which we have built these large consulting organizations, that kind of work has now changed. It is much more nimble, it is much more agile. The product vendors themselves have gone through a dramatic change in terms of the products they are now selling. So we have to be a much more adapted and nimble in the way we build new capabilities and implement these products for our clients. So I think the investments which we need to make in this organization to bring them closer to the way our go-to-market teams are aligned and of course become the tip of the spear to become the frontline conversation entity which is dealing with our client conversations is something which we are working on today.

Ashish Chopra

Sure, that is helpful. So Rajesh how far out do you think would we be in completing this transformation?

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

Vishal would like me to respond “in the next 15 days” but the answer is slightly different. I think we have made some good move. I think last quarter we have rebuilt a part of the changes which we wanted to make in the US business and I am happy to report that business has already started showing the results. In Europe, we are in the journey and we have made some changes. I think it probably take a little bit longer in Europe because of the structural changes which we need to make and the realities of the European market. My estimate is that it would probably take up about between 2-4 quarters for us to really get through the full transformation which we wanted to make and I am very confident that this is very something which we will be able to do. We have the full backing of the management team. Vishal has made his full commitment very clear that Consulting is an extremely critical component of Infosys and the journey which we are going to undertake. So I have the support of all the Presidents and Vishal. More importantly, we have also inducted my ‘partner in crime’ Ravi Kumar who is the Global Head of Delivery on the board of Infosys Consulting to ensure that the integration between the delivery organization and consulting is more seamless.

Ashish Chopra

Sure, that is helpful. And just lastly Vishal in terms of the guidance. So we do see RBS having an impact, and then Pravin alluded to couple of other BFSI clients as well who are undergoing challenges. So BFSI clearly seems to be the factor that would be driving this, but apart from that any other verticals that we should expect or be watchful of, come the second half?

Mohit Joshi

This is Mohit. Just wanted to stress that in BFSI, we had actually a breakthrough Q2. So just please keep in mind that whenever we talking about volatility or lack of visibility, it is from position of a very significant competitive strength that you have seen in this quarter and the past couple of quarters as well. As I mentioned in response to previous questions, there are a couple of things happening - low interest rates environment means that spend visibility is lower. But there is no significant client ramp down apart from the one that we have already reported on RBS. I think the key takeaway over here is the very strong competitive positioning that we have demonstrated in this quarter and the very strong level of engagement that we are seeing both on our traditional and our new services which resulted in 5.2% constant currency growth, 13 new clients, 60% of the TCV of the reported large deals.

Sandeep Dadlani

And this is Sandeep, just to add to that. I think if you look at industries like Hi-Tech, Retail, Manufacturing, you will notice that Retail and Manufacturing came of a very good first quarter, almost 5.5% growth in Q1 which was perhaps better than many of the peers in the market. Even in Q2 while Retail, CPG, Transportation, Logistics, Manufacturing etc. generally are flattish, if you compare it with the peers etc., it has actually gained market share in terms of incremental revenue. So Q1 and Q2, we have actually gained market share, gained incremental revenue in these segments. As we go into Q3, Q3 is a seasonally weak quarter for these segments because of furloughs, ramp-downs, etc., but if I were to look at it with our new set of capabilities, our people plus software capabilities, capabilities like Edge and Skava and the New Renewed offerings that Ravi is driving as well, we seem more confident about Q3 and Q4 to continue to capture market share in general on relative basis.

Rajesh Murthy

Just to complete the picture on the ECS side also, we have had a very strong quarter. In fact we grew more than 7% in this quarter, the fastest growth vertical in the quarter. We came back as well on a pretty strong growth in Q1. The momentum into Q3 and Q4 is also looking very positive primarily driven by massive opportunities which we are seeing especially in the utility sector and telecom has also done quite well for us.

Moderator

Thank you. We will take the next question from the line of Anantha Narayan from Credit Suisse. Please go ahead.

Anantha Narayan

Thank you and congratulations on the good quarter and wish you all a happy festive season. Just one thing, Is it possible to get some color on the timeline of the RBS’ ramp-down that is when does this start and when does it end?

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

This is Ranga here. We publically announced earlier during the quarter of Q2 that RBS is ramping down close to 3000 people predominantly in India. We also said subsequently when we met in Pune that primarily it was not much of an impact in Q2, but most of the impact would be in the subsequent quarters and we had also said that a lead time is provided to us by RBS as Pravin was clarifying earlier for an orderly ramp-down and either to look at opportunities elsewhere, etc., but predominantly it was offshore. So that is the timeline that we are looking at. This is in the line whatever they have publically announced.

Anantha Narayan

Ranga just to clarify, does the process get over in FY17 or could this even spill into next financial year?

Mohit Joshi

No, it does not extend to FY18 Anantha, to the next financial year. It will get completed in FY17.

I would now like to pass it on to Sikka.

Vishal Sikka

Thanks, Sandeep. Hi everyone and welcome to our Q2 Earnings Call.

We had good overall performance in Q2. You will recall that during our ‘Analyst Day’ in Pune in India in August, we had outlined certain expectations on Q2 performance. We had mentioned then that we would focus strongly on execution in Q2 and expected revenue growth in Q2 to be better than Q1. We had also mentioned that we would focus on certain drag factors of Q1 like Consulting, Finacle, BPO and our India business. I am happy to report that as a result of our strong focus on execution in Q2, our sequential revenue growth was 3.5% in reported terms and 3.9% in constant currency terms. This compares to Q1 in which we had 2.2% growth in reported terms and 1.7% growth in constant currency terms. Consulting, India and Finacle have all performed better in Q2 compared to Q1. We will continue to monitor performance of Consulting closely in the coming quarters as it still faces headwinds.

Our Core IT services had robust growth of 4.7% in constant currency in Q2; volume growth was 4%. We continue to see adoption of our new services by our clients and are focusing on building a healthy pipeline of our new services. I am particularly excited about the interest from clients in our knowledge-based AI platform - Infosys Mana, both in helping them renew their core businesses and especially in helping them to explore and define new areas. I will talk more about this in a little bit.

Coming to strategy execution, we have been sharing with you certain key indicators that we track. During the quarter, we had large deal wins of $1.209 bn, this includes committed value deal wins of $138 mn and Framework deals of $1,071 mn.

In terms of client metrics, our top-10 clients grew year-on-year 3.7%. Our top-25 clients grew 4.3% while non-top 25 clients grew 10.6% on reported terms. The number of $50 mn clients increased by 2 to 54 while the number of $100 mn plus clients increased by 1 to 18.

We continued our strong focus on improvement in operational efficiency parameters such as utilization, onsite-offshore mix, sub-con expenses and cost optimization. Ranga will provide more details on these in his remarks.

Our operating margins improved 80 basis points from 24.1% in Q1 to 24.9% in Q2. Amongst large verticals, growth was led by Financial Services and Insurance which grew 5.2% on constant currency and Energy, Utilities, Communications and Services which grew 7.3% on constant currency. We had robust all around growth across all geographies.

We added 12,717 employees on a gross basis and 2,779 on net basis. Headcount at the end of the quarter was close to 200,000 at 199,829. Attrition for the quarter declined to 15.7% for Infosys Limited standalone and 20% for the entire group with high performer attrition, a particular focus for us continuing to decline.

We will continue to seek opportunities in M&A and investments and in this quarter we invested in Cloudyn, a cloud spend optimization startup in Israel.

In Pune, we had also announced that in order to further enhance client focus and our agility in the market, we would create smaller industry segments in sales. We have completed this exercise and the new structure is effective as of today. Similarly, we reorganized our delivery organization in April-2015, wherein we consolidated and defragmented our various service lines under Ravi’s leadership. We have seen significant benefits out of the delivery organization, as seen in stronger service line focus, and improved operational efficiencies and stronger ownership by the leaders. We see a similar opportunity in sale through the smaller, more agile, more focused and more accountable industry segments under the leadership of Mohit, Sandeep and Rajesh.

Coming to the business outlook for FY17, you will recall that in Pune, we said that we will be in a better position to provide the business outlook after delivering Q2 and assessing the business environment for Q3 and Q4. We had indicated then that we see more headwinds than when we entered Q2. During the course of Q2, we have seen signs of cautious client behavior. Our announcement on RBS ramp-down is an example of this. Over the last couple of weeks, several of our peers have also indicated a softer business environment leading to a more cautious outlook for FY17. After considering our H1 performance and the near-term business outlook based on the visibility and our assessment, at this point in time we expect our revenue for FY17 to be between 8% to 9% in constant currency terms.

Now, let me share a few thoughts on the Execution of our ‘Renew’ and ‘New’ Strategy through Automation and Innovation and how we are fueling this through a culture of education and learning. In Renew, in Q2, we made good progress on our strategy to renew our core services and help our clients renew their core businesses through automation and grass-roots innovation. We are accelerating this by monetizing Zero Distance, bringing our Knowledge-based AI Platform Mana to all aspects of our service offerings including leveraging Mana internally and continuing to drive value from the bench. Our traditional services of Application Development, Infrastructure Management and Product Engineering, all grew above the company average. Zero Distance, which is our program to bring innovation to every project is enabling us to deepen our existing client relationships, show differentiation to help us win new opportunities and provide tangible examples of Infosys as a strategic partner for grass-roots ongoing innovation. Zero Distance continues to cover more than 95% of all projects and it is truly grass-roots innovation movement across Infosys. We are now elevating this further to drive greater value for our clients and converting these ideas into solutions. Hundreds of Zero Distance ideas are being implemented in client projects with many of these converted into new business opportunities generating commercial value for Infosys.

Regarding Mana, I am really excited to see the growing interest from clients and in the industry and we are in the process of building a strong pipeline. While we are in the early stages, with revenue impact insignificant for the quarter, we saw continued adoption in client successes. Internally, we are leveraging our own automation solutions to drive greater efficiencies into all of our service lines.

In Q2, Ravi estimates that we saved 2,387 FTEs worth of effort across service lines, primarily in Application Maintenance, Package System Maintenance, BPO and Infrastructure Management. Going forward, we will go beyond automation and apply the Knowledge-based AI capabilities of Mana to more complex scenarios with the focus on increasing productivity.

Zero Bench, which is our program to engage employees in value creation while they are between projects has created more than 26,000 work packets with many of these being generated by Zero Distance ideas and nearly 12,000 work packets already completed by folks on the bench. This has ensured that almost all of our bench capacity is engaged and we are already seeing benefits in terms of additional revenue as well as margin improvements through the solutions created. As a result of gaining valuable experience on these Zero Bench assignments, more than 1,000 additional freshers went directly to client projects in the first half of fiscal ’17 versus fiscal ’16 first half and you also see this contribute to the improved utilization.

Coming to new areas, we continue to grow in our new services and products in Q2 and help our clients drive breakthrough innovation. In particular, we are working with a number of clients and partners on leveraging new technologies especially AI technologies including Machine Learning to drive large scale transformations. Our AI platform Mana is key to this and we will accelerate our work in new areas with Mana.

We also announced in September our new ‘Incubation as a Service’, a dedicated Infosys team that will be the innovation engine for our clients, leveraging our learning experiences across industries and our work in emerging technologies. We will run this model with co-creation and collaboration with clients at the heart of what we offer, founded on the principles of Design Thinking.

Skava continue to help clients create new kinds of customer engagements across channel. In Q2 we launched Skava Commerce, a new standard for Modern Mobile-First Modular Ecommerce Platform. For example, Infosys and TOMS Shoes are working together to implement an Omni Channel platform leveraging Skava Commerce.

EdgeVerve delivered a strong performance this quarter with 48 wins and 23 go-lives from both Finacle and Edge suite of solutions across various markets. Edge products added several new clients this quarter across various solutions with AssistEdge leading with 8 new wins.

In Design Thinking, we continue to bring Design Thinking into every client engagement. For example, we are working with Kohl’s, the large US retailer to leverage Design Thinking together with our Skava platform on how to enhance customers’ sales associate and the overall Kohl’s experience.

Coming to culture, we continue to invest in our employees and in learning and education. In education this quarter, we added focus on collaboration to every class that we offer in our university in Mysore. This is based on learning from our data sciences class in which we saw the in which we saw the code quality was significantly improved through collaboration. Specifically, we reduced the number of code issues at 35% for individuals, down to 12% in a group of 10. We are also introducing new kinds of programs including Udacity in Nanodegree and Courcera for rapid up-skilling when needed for the most in-demand niche skills. For employees, we continue to roll out the equity program with the first phase to mid and junior level high performers already complete. We will be extending this to the leadership levels as we look at programs to retain our best leaders and attract new leaders to our company.

Looking beyond business, at Infosys, we are deeply aware of our role in society which is beyond business. In India through the Infosys Foundation, we made several investments in the areas of Rehabilitation, Healthcare, Education and Arts & Culture, including handing over the Residential Enclave of 200 Houses to families that were ended homeless in the aftermath of the Cyclone Hudhud in 2014. We launched an Institute of Robotic Surgery to support Narayana Health and Funding travel stipends for top researchers at IIT, Kharagpur as well as sponsoring an IIT Kharagpur study about the Antiquity of the Indus Valley. Infosys Foundation USA supports Quality Computer Science and maker professional development for teachers via the Computer Science Professional Development Week, the CS for All Community Giving Program and the commitments recently announced at the White House Summit on Computer Science for all. Additionally, the foundation announced new grants to support the largest CS Teacher Organization. The Computer Science Teacher Association recognize excellence in CS Teaching for Awards and to support the New York Academy of Sciences. We continue to be very proud of our work in our community.

In closing, I would like to hand it over to Ranga to provide more details on the financials before coming back for Q&A. Thank you.

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

Thank you Vishal. Hello everyone

Let me start by saying that in Q2, we focus further on improving the operational efficiency of our business and we continued our emphasis on healthy cash generation. I am happy to report that we have seen an improvement on both these fronts during the quarter.

Our revenues in Q2 were $2,587 mn, which is a growth of 3.5% on reported basis and 3.9% on constant currency basis. On a year-on-year basis when compared to Q2 of fiscal ’16, revenues have grown 8.2% in dollar terms and 8.9% in constant currency terms. H1’17 revenue growth as compared to H1’16 was 9.5% in reported terms and 10.5% in constant currency terms. Volumes grew by 4% during the quarter as compared to 2.2% in Q1’17. On quarter-on-quarter basis, onsite volume grew by 3.1% and offshore volume grew by 4.4%. Realization for the quarter increased by 0.2% on reported basis and 0.7% on constant currency basis compared to Q1 of FY’17. On year-on-year basis, realization declined by 3.6% on reported basis and 3.0% on constant currency basis as compared to Q2 of ‘16.

Several of the operational efficiency parameters improved during the quarter. Our utilization excluding trainees increased by 2% to 82.5%. Similarly, utilization including trainees went up to 77.7%. Over the last six quarters, utilization excluding trainees has been consistently above 80%. Onsite mix reduced to 29.7% during the quarter and we are focusing on bringing this down gradually, though there could be quarter-on-quarter volatility.

Subcon expenses were 5.4% of revenues in Q2 similar to Q1’17 levels, but lower than 5.5% in Q2’16.

Employee benefit cost as a percentage of revenue was 55.7% as compared to 55.3% in Q1’17, primarily on account of compensation increase and higher variable pay that we paid to our employees this quarter, offset by better utilization. On a comparable basis to Q2’16, employee benefit cost as a percentage of revenues were 54.7%.

Our collections were healthy and DSO for the quarter was healthy at 64-days as compared to 66 days in Q1’17, a reduction of 2 days.

Our operating margins for the quarter was 24.9%, increase of 80 basis points over Q1’17. Improvement in utilization and onsite mix contributed to 100 basis points of margin improvement. This was partially offset by increase in third-party software cost which negatively impacted margins by 60 basis points. The benefit of onsite cost optimization initiatives and lower visa charges were slightly offset by impact of higher variable pay and compensation increases resulting in net positive impact of 40 basis points. So overall it led to 80 basis expansion in margin.

Our emphasis on healthy operating cash flow generation continued this quarter. Operating cash generation was strong during the quarter, partly held by tax refunds of about $50 mn. We generated operating cash flow of $553 mn in Q2 as compared to $481 mn last year same quarter. Our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30^th was $ 5,349 mn as compared to $ 4,918 mn last quarter.

We added 12,717 gross employees during the quarter with a net addition of 2,779 employees. The quarterly annualized attrition on a standalone basis has also decreased marginally to 15.7% from 15.8% last quarter. At a group level, annualized attrition was 20% as against 21% last quarter.

As you know, Q2 saw currency volatility especially in the backdrop of Brexit. We managed to navigate the volatility effectively. On a period end basis, USD appreciated by 3.6% against GBP and depreciated by 0.3% against Euro and 2.2% against Australian Dollar. Our hedge position as of September 30, 2016 was $1,037 mn. We expect near-term volatility in cross-currency and rupee and we continue to manage the same through appropriate hedges.

Yield on cash balances was 7.77% in Q2’17 compared to 7.82% in Q1’17. We expect the yield for FY’17 to be approximately 7.5% compared to 8.6% in FY’16 due to interest rate environment in India.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 28.8%. Full year effective tax rate projection is expected to be around 29% for fiscal ‘17.

Our net margins during the quarter were 20.8% as compared to 20.5% in Q1, an expansion of 30 basis points. Our EPS for the quarter was 24 cents; EPS grew 3.8% year-on-year basis and 5.5% on sequential basis.

Coming to clients and business Segments, our number of $100 mn clients increased to 18 from 17 last quarter, likewise $50 mn clients increased by 2 to 54 clients. Active clients now stands at 1,136 as compared to 1,126 last quarter.

Coming to Margin Expectations, we will continue to optimize the operational efficiency levers on an ongoing basis. We have said in the medium-term, our operating margin expectation is in the range of 24% - 26%. Considering the expectations on growth trajectory for the second half of the year and as revenue growth is one of the key determinants of margin, we expect fiscal ’17 margins to be in the range of 24% to 25%.

With that, we will open the floor for questions.

Moderator

Thank you very much, sir. Ladies and Gentlemen, we will now begin the Question-and-Answer Session. We have first question from the line of Joseph Foresi from Cantor Fitzgerald. Please go ahead.

Joseph Foresi

I was wondering could you just talk about the change in the outlook, is that more economic or structural? I know this came up at one of your competitors. I want to get your view on it, maybe you could describe why?

Vishal Sikka

It is largely based on a couple of client-specific headwinds as well as couple of service lines like Consulting and BPO where we expect the growth to be lower than what we had anticipated at the beginning of the year. I would not say it is structural. The structural change that is happening in our industry is widely known. I have been talking about this for the last two years and that has to do with this very pervasive and fundamental downward spiral that the industry as it has been is going through which is based on the pricing pressure, the rapid acceleration of the rate cuts, decline in pricing realization and so forth which is being fueled by a variety of reasons and so forth. That is one structural thing but otherwise this quarterly fluctuation that we see is nothing to do with the structural thing.

Then my second question is I appreciate the color on the margins for this year. Just given some of the structural things you just talked about, what do you expect from a margin or profitability standpoint over the long-term, I know you have given some color about perhaps innovation helping the margins but I was wondering what you thought about the margin profile over the long-term?

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

Let me first take that question. Yes, in the medium-term, as you rightly said, we continue to reiterate 24% to 26%. As you know the margin is a derivative of three principle components – one is of course the revenue growth itself, the second one is the pricing decline and the third one is to what extent the pricing decline could be offset through operational efficiency. Another one of course is the Automation piece. As we have seen in this particular fiscal as we have said several times, our primary focus has been on how do we look at all our operational efficiency levers which could be levers for margin improvement in the short-term to medium-term. But in the long-term, the real lever that we have is really Automation. We need to look at the two pieces of the spectrum that we have for improving the operating margins. Near-to-medium-term spectrum is really the operational efficiency and so on and also in some of the projects how do we get productivity improvements to improve margin given in ongoing projects. But in the longer-term, it is really the Automation. Let me first address the first part; as we have been saying over the last four quarters, we have continued our sharp focus on the levers that we have on operational efficiency, whether it is utilization…it used to be in the late 70s as recent as over 6-quarters ago. Then consistently over the last 6-quarters we have kept it above 80%, this quarter it has further improved by 2.5%. Likewise subcontractor expenses used to be 6.3% and we brought it down to 5.6%, then 5.4% and likewise the onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue and so on. We do believe that the trajectory of this operational efficiency indicators over the last 3-4-quarters have been moving in the right direction and we do believe we have some more levers. But as you said, this is for the short-term to-medium-term. For the longer-term, Automation is one which can give us a more sustainable margin improvement and Vishal has been focusing and the company over the last couple of quarters has been focusing. Even there if you look at the Automation, the first phase of Automation typically focuses on offshore at the lower end of the pyramid kind of jobs. You will not really see significant impact on P&L if it is only offshore at the lower end of the pyramid. For meaningful impact on operating margins through Automation, we need to really see across the pyramid both onsite and offshore reduction in the effort through Automation. That is where the current focus is. I think Vishal wants to add a few more thoughts on this.

Vishal Sikka

The longer-term when you look at the margin situation, there are two key things that are going to have a structural impact. Ranga already talked about Automation. The key there is to ensure that the productivity improvement that we can achieve through our Mana platform outperform the downward trend in the pricing. If we are able to do that we will improve the margin, if we are not then margin will continue to decline. It is as simple as that and I think it obviously points to a very clear picture

So Joe, this is Vishal again. Just to answer your question, again, longer term when it comes to margin, the one key thing as Ranga talked about is automation and there we have to ensure that the improvement in productivity because of automation, because of our AI platform Mana outpaces the downward pressure, the downward curve of the rising pressure that we see. If you are able to outpace that we will improve our profitability, if we are not, we will not. And this is something that is I believe the most fundamental issue that is facing the industry and I believe on this measure we are continuing to make good progress because of expanding the sophistication of our AI platform and so on.

The other longer aspect of margin is to ensure that our new services and our software based offerings continue to gain scale and continue to gain traction because these are high value, high margin kinds of offerings. The more of those that we can embrace and that includes in some cases opening up new go-to-market channels and so forth, the better off we will be on the margins. So, our margin thesis is based on these three observations as Ranga talked about, one is that the industry is under a structural decline or margin pressure which impacts our core business. Number two, automation and AI can help us dramatically improve our productivity and if we are able to outpace the downward pricing pressure as a result of that, then that much the better. And number three, our ability to offer new services that are high value and high margin that can help us improve margins over the long-term. Thanks.

Joseph Foresi

And then just on pricing, have you seen any change in pricing and could pricing become a bigger problem if the demand environment stays depressed obviously for the extended period of time? Thank you.

Vishal Sikka

Yes, we have in fact we mentioned in our press release the downward pricing pressure has continued to intensify over the course of the last two years. And perhaps Ranga, you can provide the numbers of how the pricing decline has happened over the course of the year.

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

Yes. I think in our opinion the relevant indicator would be really the year-on-year pricing for a longer period because there could be quarter-to-quarter volatility in pricing which may not sometimes could not be the ideal indicator. So for example last year if you look at entire FY16 over FY15, the pricing decline in constant currency was close to 1.5%. Now likewise if you look at on a half year basis this year, H1 2017 over H1 2016 in constant currency basis we have seen a pricing decline of 1.6%. So, we are seeing in this range of 1.5% to 1.6% even this quarter. That is something that we have seen in the first half of this year.

Thank you. We have the next question from the line of Keith Bachman from Bank of Montreal. Please go ahead.

Keith Bachman

I had two, if I could. The first one is growth dynamics for the industry. If you thought about the combination of leading Indian based IT service providers such as yourselves, TCS and Cognizant, what do you think their growth rate would be for the industry as reflected by those participants in calendar year 2017? You guys are guiding to call 8% to 9% year-over-year growth, TCS if you take constant currency was closer to 7% recently. Is that the right range you think for calendar year 2017 for the industry?

Vishal Sikka

I have absolutely no idea. We can tell you what we see in our situation and everyone will have their own situations and guidance based on that. We have shared our outlook. What I can say broadly is that the entire industry is under this structural change that is going on, the downward pricing pressure. I have been talking about this from the last two plus years and it has only become more intensified, more accelerated, more steep. I think we are all seeing the results of that play out in various ways across the industry. It is going to be a very difficult transformation for the entire industry. If you look at our performance in Q2, of course we did extremely well in our core services and that core service improvement is a direct reflection of the fact that we are able to bring in automation which is still in the very early stages but we are also bringing a culture of innovation. I think that dual transformation is going to be absolutely essential for the IT services companies to be able to be relevant in the times ahead. We have to improve our productivity through the power of automation and AI and we have to, in parallel, be able to take that freed up capacity because of AI and deploy that towards innovation and creativity. If we do not do this then we are going to be a victim of this downward pricing pressure. It is as simple as that.

Keith Bachman

Okay. Well, my follow-up actually relates to that, thank you. In terms of pricing pressure when we listen to the other providers, the leading providers, the comments are pricing pressure is fairly consistent. You are suggesting that pricing pressure is actually increasing, is A) there a reason you think in different perspectives, and B) is the pricing pressure mostly in what we would characterize as legacy areas of ADM, outsourcing and BPO? Is that where the pricing pressure areas are showing up or is it even in the new areas that we would simply characterize as with digital areas?

Vishal Sikka

What I mean by that is not in terms of the amount of pressure or any of that, I think we can do the analysis on that and we can all see what that has been like and perhaps it is increasing, perhaps it is not. But it is certainly becoming much more pervasive and the rate cuts and so forth are becoming much more frequent, that is what I see. Exactly as you said the new service areas around digital experiences, the adoption of AI and AI solutions and clients, these are the areas where there are the high value opportunities which we have to go after and build the capabilities and the skill for it.

Thank you. Our next question is from the line of Moshe Katri from Wedbush Securities. Please go ahead.

Moshe Katri

I wanted to get some color looking at your TCV for the quarter that was very significant, I think it was north of $1.2 bn, last quarter you were north of about $800 mn. May be talk a bit about, if you look at some of the deal flows that is coming through, which part is renewals, maybe we can get some sort of an average, which part is new logos? And then you also mentioned a framework agreement, maybe you can kind of explain what that actually entails? Thank you.

Pravin Rao

We have won six deals worth about $1.2 bn plus. Two of the deals are traditional committed deals and four are framework deals. By framework we mean there is a very clear expectation and in some sense informal agreement from the customers, those are kind of revenues that we will make over the deal duration but there is no contractual commitment, so that is why we have separated it out. In terms of the deal, out of the six deals, two deals have been from new logos and four of the deals have been from existing clients. But this varies from quarter-to-quarter, for instance we reported $ 800 mn plus last quarter, we had 10 deals and there also split between new and existing varied. It varies from quarter-to-quarter so we cannot conclude on a quarterly basis.

Moshe Katri

Which part of the $1.2 bn in terms of percentage was renewal this quarter last quarter?

Pravin Rao

We actually do not report the renewal versus net new because sometimes it is a mix, in some of the existing accounts as well part of it could be renewal because even when we renew we will get incremental revenue, it becomes a bit complicated. All we say what is new logo and what is existing customers, but we typically do not get into how much is renewal and how much is new.

Mohit Joshi

Yes, just to add to what Pravin has said, as Pravin mentioned at times we may have what we qualify as a framework contract. So for instance for a large Financial Services company they signed a deal close to $0.5 bn. But basically this is revenue, we have been doing multiple projects with them and this is a commitment from their side to add a $0.5 bn over the next five years. So while this is not really renew because existing projects that have been extended projects, this is the expectation of business volumes the clients give to us over the next five years.

Moshe Katri

And then as a follow-up, looking at the discussion about margins that we had, in the past we spoke about a cushion of about 500 bps to 700 bps that can actually help us sustain the EBIT margin range that we kind of focused on, utilization is at about 82.5%. The real question here is how comfortable are we that that cushion is still there and how badly do we need automation to come through to help us kind of sustain that EBIT margin range that we focused out in the past? Thank you.

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

I think there are multiple levers that we talked about earlier. For example, if you look at utilization at 82.5% that is overall number including onsite and offshore, while onsite is higher offshore is still lower at below 80%. So, we have some levers there. But of course we need to really, there could be quarter-to-quarter volatility as I said earlier but that is something that we are focusing on. We have seen onsite mix in the range of 27% as recent as about 1.5 to 2 years ago. Every 1% decline in onsite can give a 50 basis points straight away in operating margin but of course currently where it is 29%, it marginally came down from 29.9%. So that is a much more gradual one, but of course 27% is something that we have done recently. So that is the trajectory that we will watching very closely.

Likewise, if you look at our onsite employee cost and subcon expenses. For example, 6.3% of revenues was the high and it has come down by almost 1% in the last eight quarters. Why do we need to expect that some of the subcontractor expenses are required to make the short-term demands where we do not have our talent, at the same time we do believe that there are pockets which can be addressed through better talent supply chain planning and more importantly looking in to margin of subcontractors which we did this quarter, for example.

Likewise, we have the onsite employee cost structure, the onsite pyramid. Onsite pyramid is something which we are focusing on, the pyramid has to reflect a con-committed building rate for the pyramid that is there. We are seeing especially on the fixed priced projects onsite they are saying, Hey how we could in fixed projects in a particular project is there, how do we make sure that we have an optimal onsite pyramid. Can somebody senior there or mid-level, we really tend to redeploy in other new project essentially giving us that much additional flexibility onsite because once the person is out on the fixed price project on the cost side, while it will come down on the revenue side there is no impact, can they be redeployed elsewhere onsite in a new project.

Also we are looking for the higher end of the pyramid, whether the current bidding rates are adequate, should may we now move to different projects. So, there are many other elements that we have been doing over the last couple of quarters because our onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue, you would notice on a comparable basis to some of our offshore players is on the higher side. So we are looking at it in a way that would not hurt growth but at the same time gives us flexibility to work on it. In some substance over the last three, four quarters this has been our focus and the trajectory of these indicators has been helping us in the last four quarters. We continue to do so in the short to medium term.

Vishal Sikka

And then on the capability issue that you raised, the crucial aspect of this is to ensure in order to stay ahead of the pricing downward curve is to ensure that the AI platform is able to bring automation lead productivity improvements to even the more complex kinds of work that people perform, not just the L1 and L2 support task which are easier to mechanize and easier to automate but to the more complex, the more imagination requiring task, the more cognitive tasks such as application maintenance, L3 or even application development and product engineering and those kinds of things. Certainly of course more complex forms of end-to-end testing and things like that. That is one of our endeavor is to continue to develop those capabilities in Mana

Thank you. We have the next question from the line of James Friedman from Susquehanna International Group. Please go ahead.

James Friedman

I was wondering in terms of your forward guidance, are there any verticals that are contemplated to decelerate or accelerate, if you can give some color? And I realize you do not guide on a vertical basis but if you can give us some decent color about what you are contemplating in second half on a vertical basis, that will be helpful.

Vishal Sikka

So, maybe our three presidents of sales who are here, perhaps they can comment on this.

Sandeep Dadlani

I can give color on high tech, manufacturing, retail, CPG and logistics. I think if you look at retail, CPG and logistics, they are broadly trending together. They are volatile, we had a great Q1, we had a flattish Q2 but if you look at the incremental revenue and market share captured, it is perhaps higher than most industry peers as retail goes through disruptive times. Q3 for these industries is usually weak because of the holiday season and most of these companies are focused internally towards getting the holiday season right. But as consumer spending picks up, at least the early signs are that we will have a good holiday season then I think Q4 is going to be much better for them. Manufacturing and high tech have furloughs and ramp downs in Q3, this is also seasonal and the parts of manufacturing that are usually trending towards servicing oil and gas, energy clients, etc., have had trouble. But industrial manufacturing has lots of M&A going on and therefore there is good uptick in M&A work. Across all these industries, if we approach them as traditional IT services providers then discretionary spend will be tight and we will have some trouble. However, we are seeing especially in these sectors a big uptick in our people plus software strategy. They are far more amenable to more powerful, more disruptive capex led spending, offerings like Skava, Mana, Edge, etc., there have been most uptick in these areas. So I am very optimistic as we move into Q3 and Q4, other than seasonal trends that these new models will pick-up and drive growth in these industries. I will pass it on to Mohit now

Mohit Joshi

I will cover Financial Services and then Healthcare Insurance and Life Sciences. So, Financial Services, as you would have noticed for the past few quarters, we have had really a very strong performance, for the current quarter also. Even if you strip out the Insurance pace, Financial Services quarter-on-quarter grew at 4.9%. Growth for us was very broad based, so this was across industry sub-segments, this was across geographies and across service lines. I think our key message of industrialization which matches with the ‘renew’ agenda for our clients and the message of ‘new’ which is around digital disruption, around design thinking, around new AI used cases, that is resonating very strongly and a competitive position is very strong. So in a number of consolidation deals for instance we have won large pieces of work. On the flip side, in terms of the headwinds we had spoken about a large project ramp down. As has been happening over the past few quarters, the low interest rate or the negative interest rate regime has meant that clients spending has been more on a start-stop basis. But I do want to underscore the very strong performances we have had in the past few quarters and a very strong competitive positioning that we have developed in this industry as very strong modes for us, so that is on Financial Services.

Insurance, again like I mentioned we have done extremely well. Growth has been over 5%. There is a lot of focus among our clients on digital distribution, on claims and policy, admin, modernization, on customer acquisition. Insurance is a sector where we are leading with client acquisitions, so we have an existing portfolio of clients globally but the new account acquisition in the sector has been particularly strong and that leads me to be optimistic about the outlook for our business in the sector for the next half year.

In Healthcare we have done exceedingly well, we had double-digit quarter-on-quarter growth. In Healthcare as well growth is backed by very strong new client acquisition, a huge amount of interest in our clients on our innovation and automation agenda. In Healthcare we are seeing significant opportunities in care management, Medicare, Medicaid expansion, international expansion and obviously compliance. So we have a very strong team and a strong client franchise in Healthcare which is also reacting very well to some of the things that Sandeep spoke about in terms of robotic process automation and in terms of AI.

Life sciences is a business where if you recollect in Q1 we had spoken about a very large consulting led program coming to an end and we had a little bit of an overhang of that in this quarter as well. We are seeing some amount of in-sourcing by some of our key clients but again, and there is the spend in this industry itself which is challenged, but again life sciences over the past two years has been one of our highest performing businesses with strong double-digit growth in both the years. Again, a strong client franchise, so I do expect that in the next half year this will perform well above industry average.

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

I will give a quick commentary on the industries I look after. I manage resources, energy utilities, telecom and services business for Infosys. The resources and energy industries are clearly still reeling under the impact of low commodity prices and low oil prices. On the oil side, this morning the price has gone marginally above $50 but overall the industry is actually craving stability and I think you have seen a series of ups and downs, that is not really a good sign for companies to open up their wallets and make investments. So, in these two industries it is really about operational efficiency and looking at cost takeout. I think a lot of that has been done, at least the oil industry has been practicing this how companies can still continue and to be profitable at $40 a barrel. But I think overall with the demand being what it is and the gap between supply and demand still quite significant, I think this is something which will probably continue for some time.

The best performing sector for us is the utilities industry, this is where we have had our maximum growth. Overall, the ECS segment recorded a 7% plus growth this quarter and it was primarily driven to a large extent by the utilities industry. This is where we are seeing opportunities on two fronts, one of course utilities are also trying to get liner and get more efficient and that is where we are seeing a lot of uptake. But we are also seeing utilities spending a lot in transformation of how they are engaged with their clients and one of the big investment areas for utilities is a huge opportunity for us is how customers who have legacy systems and operate their back end systems for long periods of time are now having to create front end layer which are more nimble, more agile so that they can respond to the client needs. So we are looking at a disambiguation of the systems which is creating a lot of opportunities for us.

On the telecom side, again a huge pressure on both top-line and bottom-line because of the nature of the industry, because of the competition. And here it has been quite cyclical, last quarter we had a bumper quarter in telecom, this quarter was relatively muted. So, overall the ECS segment has done very well this quarter and we expect momentum to continue in Q3-Q4 as well.

Thank you. We have the next question from the line of Ravi Menon from Elara Securities. Please go ahead.

Ravi Menon

I would just like to ask you, if you find certain parts of the service line more receptive to improving win rates and doing your proposition with the new areas or the new way of thinking where you are bringing about and some parts may be less so, like for us the infrastructure management services perhaps being less or separate to that versus application development.

Vishal Sikka

Perhaps Ravi, you can provide this answer to Ravi. Overall, what we see Ravi is the growth across all the service lines and of course they have different characteristics and different value propositions. But generally we are seeing strong growth in all the service lines driven by different parameters in application development and maintenance, it is driven by improving the productivity through automation and bringing experience improvement through design thinking. Infrastructure management is all about automation and so forth. Perhaps Ravi you can talk about, the question was around which service lines are more prone to innovation and higher margin and attractiveness.

Ravi Kumar

So, all service lines have some way of looking at automation and innovation. The ones which are more amenable for automation are application development and maintenance, enterprise package applications, infrastructure services. But having said that, each and every other service line does have an opportunity because we are looking at the complete value chain of the services spectrum. Each of them has a ‘new’ part of it. Just to give an example, in engineering services the ‘digital twin’ is the ‘new’ of what we could do in engineering services. In application development and maintenance, we are seeing quite a bit of work on legacy modernization. In digital experience, taking a process and digitizing it. In BPO services we have a lot of new offerings in digital media, optimization and creating insights and analytics. So, each of the service lines I believe do have opportunity to innovate or an opportunity to automate which is how we look for it.

Moderator

Thank you. Ladies and Gentlemen, that was our last question for today. I would now like to hand over the floor to Sandeep Mahindroo for his closing comments. Over to you, sir.

Vishal Sikka

Hi, this is Vishal. Just to close, we had a great Q2, we are proud of our execution. As we said both in August and at the end of Q1, largely internal factors had got us to the point of our performance in Q1 and we focused on those, we overcame that, we had strong performance, a 4.7% constant currency performance in our core services as well as improvements in all the operational parameters and continued strength in our new areas. So, I am really satisfied with the way the team has performed and the results that we have achieved. While we see some headwinds as we look at the next two quarters which has got us to the revision in our guidance downwards to 8% to 9% constant currency for this year, obviously, we will strive to ensure that we deliver a great performance in these two quarters. When we look beyond that, what we see is that our industry is going through a fairly structural transformation and when I look around, I find that our company both in terms of renewing our core services with automation and grass-root innovation as well as bringing new services that are the defining areas for our business for our clients, in that all important parameter we are doing very well and that gives me more than anything else, the comfort for the future. So thank you very much and we look forward to seeing many of you over the course of the quarter and then at the next earnings.

Notes on segment information

Business segments

Based on the "management approach" as defined in Ind-AS 108 - Operating Segments, the Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates the Company'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 Company's business are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The Management believes that it is not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.

Notes on segment information:

Business segments

Based on the "management approach" as defined in Ind-AS 108 - Operating Segments, the Chief Operating Decision Marker evaluates the Company'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

Segment Assets / Liabilities

Assets and liabilities used in the company's business are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The Management believes that it is not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

1. Company Overview and Significant Accounting Policies

1.1 Company overview

Infosys is a leading provider in consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation services. Along with its subsidiaries, Infosys provides Business IT services (comprising application development and maintenance, independent validation, infrastructure management, engineering services comprising product engineering and life cycle solutions and business process management); Consulting and systems integration services (comprising consulting, enterprise solutions, systems integration and advanced technologies); Products, business platforms and solutions to accelerate intellectual property-led innovation including Finacle, our banking solution; and offerings in the areas of Analytics, Cloud, and Digital Transformation.

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 Bangalore, Karnataka, India. The company has its primary listings on the BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange in India. The company’s American Depositary Shares representing equity shares are also listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Euronext London and Euronext Paris.

The Group's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are authorized for issue by the company's Board of Directors on October 14, 2016.

1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS) and in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair values. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements. These condensed consolidated interim 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, 2016. Accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

As the quarter and year-to-date figures are taken from the source and rounded to the nearest digits, the quarter figures in this statement added up to the figures reported for the previous quarters might not always add up to the year-to-date figures reported in this statement.

1.3 Basis of consolidation

Infosys consolidates entities which it owns or controls. The 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.

Associates are entities over which the group has significant influence but not control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investor’s share of the profit or loss of the investee after the acquisition date. The group’s investment in associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition.

1.4 Use of estimates

The preparation of the 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 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 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 consolidated interim financial statements.

1.5 Critical accounting estimates

a. Revenue recognition

The group uses the percentage-of-completion method in accounting for its fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the group to estimate the efforts or costs expended to date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates at the reporting date.

b. Income taxes

The company's two major tax jurisdictions are India and the U.S., 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 (also refer to note 2.11).

c. Business combinations and intangible assets

Business combinations are accounted for using IFRS 3 (Revised), Business Combinations. IFRS 3 requires the identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration to be fair valued in order to ascertain the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. Significant estimates are required to be made in determining the value of contingent consideration and intangible assets. These valuations are conducted by independent valuation experts.

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.

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 is less than its carrying amount based on a number of factors including operating results, business plans, future cash flows and economic conditions. The recoverable amount of cash generating units is determined based on higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost to sell. The goodwill impairment test is performed at the level of the cash-generating unit or groups of cash-generating units which are benefitting from the synergies of the acquisition and which represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.

Market related information and estimates are used to determine the recoverable amount. Key assumptions on which management has based its determination of recoverable amount include estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated operating margins. Cash flow projections take into account past experience and represent management’s best estimate about future developments.

1.6 Revenue recognition

The company derives revenues primarily from software development and related services and from the licensing of software products. Arrangements with customers for software related services are either on a fixed-price, fixed-timeframe or on a time-and-material basis.

Revenue on time-and-material contracts are recognized as the related services are performed and revenue from the end of the last billing to the balance sheet date is recognized as unbilled revenues. Revenue from fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts, where there is no uncertainty as to measurement or collectability of consideration, is recognized as per the percentage-of-completion method. When there is uncertainty as to measurement or ultimate collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the current contract estimates. Costs and earnings in excess of billings are classified as unbilled revenue while billings in excess of costs and earnings are classified as unearned revenue. Deferred contract costs are amortized over the term of the contract. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the underlying maintenance arrangement.

In arrangements for software development and related services and maintenance services, the company has applied the guidance in IAS 18, Revenue, by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each separately identifiable component of a single transaction. The arrangements generally meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as separately identifiable components. For allocating the consideration, the company has measured the revenue in respect of each separable component of a transaction at its fair value, in accordance with principles given in IAS 18. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence of its fair value. In cases where the company is unable to establish objective and reliable evidence of fair value for the software development and related services, the company has used a residual method to allocate the arrangement consideration. In these cases the balance of the consideration, after allocating the fair values of undelivered components of a transaction has been allocated to the delivered components for which specific fair values do not exist.

License fee revenues are recognized when the general revenue recognition criteria given in IAS 18 are met. Arrangements to deliver software products generally have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS). The company has applied the principles given in IAS 18 to account for revenues from these multiple element arrangements. Objective and reliable evidence of fair value has been established for ATS. Objective and reliable evidence of fair value is the price charged when the element is sold separately. When other services are provided in conjunction with the licensing arrangement and objective and reliable evidence of their fair values have been established, the revenue from such contracts are allocated to each component of the contract in a manner, whereby revenue is deferred for the undelivered services and the residual amounts are recognized as revenue for delivered elements. In the absence of objective and reliable evidence of fair value for implementation, the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation 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 services are performed. ATS revenue is recognized ratably over the period in which the services are rendered.

Advances received for services and products are reported as client deposits until all conditions for revenue recognition are met.

The company accounts for volume discounts and pricing incentives to customers as a reduction of revenue based on the ratable allocation of the discounts/ incentives amount to each of the underlying revenue transaction that results in progress by the customer towards earning the discount/ incentive. Also, when the level of discount varies with increases in levels of revenue transactions, the company recognizes the liability based on its estimate of the customer's future purchases. If it is probable that the criteria for the discount will not be met, or if the amount thereof cannot be estimated reliably, then discount is not recognized until the payment is probable and the amount can be estimated reliably. The company recognizes changes in the estimated amount of obligations for discounts in the period in which the change occurs. The discounts are passed on to the customer either as direct payments or as a reduction of payments due from the customer.

The company presents revenues net of value-added taxes in its statement of comprehensive income.

1.7 Property, plant and equipment

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 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	5 years
Computer equipment	3-5 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Vehicles	5 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end.

Advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date and the cost of assets not put 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. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in net profit in the statement of comprehensive income when incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset and the resultant gains or losses are recognized in net profit in the statement of comprehensive income. Assets to be disposed off are reported at the lower of the carrying value or the fair value less cost to sell.

1.8 Business combinations

Business combinations have been accounted for using the acquisition method under the provisions of IFRS 3 (Revised), Business Combinations.

The cost of 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 cost of acquisition 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.

Business combinations between entities under common control is outside the scope of IFRS 3 (Revised), Business Combinations and is accounted for at carrying value.

Transaction costs that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination such as finders’ fees, legal fees, due diligence fees, and other professional and consulting fees are expensed as incurred.

1.9 Financial instruments

As per IFRS 9, the group has classified its financial assets into the following categories based on the business model for managing those assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics:

- Financial assets carried at amortised cost

- Financial assets fair valued through other comprehensive income

- Financial assets fair valued through profit and loss

The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have any other material impact on the consolidated financial statements, hence prior period figures have not been restated. The impact on account of adoption of IFRS 9 is given in Note 2.2.

1.9.1 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.

1.9.2 Subsequent measurement

a. Non-derivative financial instruments

(i) Financial assets carried at amortised cost

A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised 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

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. Further, in cases where the Group has made an irrevocable election based on its business model, for its investments which are classified as equity instruments, the subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.

(iii) Financial assets 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 and loss. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

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 these contracts is generally a bank.

(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities, at fair value through profit or loss.

This category has 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 a 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 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 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 statement of comprehensive income.

c. Share capital and treasury shares

(i) Ordinary Shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

(ii) 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.

1.9.3 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.

1.10 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.

For all other financial instruments the carrying amounts approximate the fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

1.11 Impairment

a. Financial assets

The group recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables 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 amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss

b. Non-financial assets

(i) Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis and whenever there is an indication that goodwill may be impaired, relying on a number of factors including operating results, business plans and future cash flows. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the Group's cash generating units (CGU) or groups of CGU’s expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the business combination. 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.

Total impairment loss of a CGU is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU. An impairment loss on goodwill is recognized in net profit in the statement of comprehensive income and is not reversed in the subsequent period.

(ii) Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment

Intangible assets and 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 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 or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

1.12 Employee benefits

1.12.1 Gratuity

The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees 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

Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plan are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each balance sheet date using the projected unit credit method. The company fully contributes all ascertained liabilities to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust (the Trust). In case of Infosys BPO and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPO's Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust and EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees' Gratuity FundTrust, respectively. Trustees administer contributions made to the Trusts and contributions are invested in a scheme with Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by law of India.

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. 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 are recognized in net profits in the statement of comprehensive income.

1.12.2 Superannuation

Certain employees of Infosys, Infosys BPO 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.

1.12.3 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 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. 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.

1.12.4 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.

1.13 Share - based compensation

The Group recognizes compensation expense relating to share-based payments in net profit using fair-value in accordance with IFRS 2, Share-Based Payment. The estimated fair value of awards is charged to 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.

1.14 Earnings per equity share

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 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.

1.15 Recent accounting pronouncements

1.15.1 Standards issued but not yet effective

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contract with Customers: In May 2014, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued IFRS 15, Revenue from Contract with Customers. The core principle of the new standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Further the new standard requires enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts with customers. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The effective date for adoption of IFRS 15 is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017, though early adoption is permitted. In September 2015, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 15, deferring the adoption of the standard to periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 instead of January 1, 2017.

The Group is evaluating the effect of IFRS 15 on the consolidated financial statements including the transition method to be adopted and the related disclosures. The group continues to evaluate the effect of the standard on ongoing financial reporting.

IFRS 16 Leases : On January 13, 2016, the International Accounting Standards Board issued the final version of IFRS 16, Leases. IFRS 16 will replace the existing leases Standard, IAS 17 Leases, and related Interpretations. The Standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract i.e., the lessee and the lessor. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. Currently, operating lease expenses are charged to the statement of comprehensive income. The Standard also contains enhanced disclosure requirements for lessees. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17.

The effective date for adoption of IFRS 16 is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, though early adoption is permitted for companies applying IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Group is yet to evaluate the requirements of IFRS 16 and the impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Investments carried at fair value through other comprehensive income	49	17
Investments carried at fair value through profit and loss	322	10

Liquid Mutual fund:

The cost and fair value of liquid mutual funds as of September 30, 2016 was $321 million and $322 million, respectively and as of March 31, 2016 was $10 million, respectively. The fair value is based on quoted prices.

Quoted debt securities carried at amortised cost:

Investment in quoted debt securities represents the investments made in debt securities issued by government and quasi government organisations. The fair value of quoted debt securities (including interest accrued) as on September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 was $278 million and $257 million, respectively. The fair value is based on the quoted prices and market observable inputs.

Quoted debt securities fair valued through other comprehensive income:

Represents investments in non-convertible debentures issued by government aided institutions. The fair value of non-convertible debentures (including interest accrued) as of September 30, 2016 is $23 million. The fair value is based on the quoted prices.

Impact on account of adoption of IFRS 9

Certain investments which were earlier carried at fair value through other comprehensive income under IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and measurement are now carried at amortised cost under IFRS 9, where the business model 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. The impact of such change in measurement did not have a material impact on the financial statements. Hence, the company has not restated the prior period figures and the cumulative impact has been recorded in other comprehensive income for the six months ended September 30, 2016.

Accordingly, for the six months ended September 30, 2016, the company has recorded, in its other comprehensive income, a reversal of unrealised gain, net of taxes, of $5 million (recorded on quoted debt securities as on April, 1, 2016), with a corresponding change in investment and deferred taxes.

Further, under IFRS 9, the impairment of financial assets is measured under the 'Expected Credit Loss' (ECL) model, which uses a dual measurement approach, under which the loss allowance is measured as either 12 month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses. The change in the impairment model did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

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).

During the six months ended September 30, 2016, quoted debt securities of 17 million were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 of fair value hierarchy, since these were valued based on market observable inputs.

*Discounted $14 million at 13.4%.

A one percentage point change in the unobservable inputs used in fair valuation of the contingent consideration does not have a significant impact in its value.

Financial risk management

Financial risk factors

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks - market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The primary market risk to the Group is foreign exchange risk. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange related risk exposures. The Group's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer and the concentration of risk from the top few customers.

Market risk

The Group operates internationally and a major portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in the United States and elsewhere, and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. 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 exchange rate between the rupee and foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Group’s operations are adversely affected as the Indian rupee appreciates / depreciates against these currencies.

The following table analyses foreign currency risk from financial instruments as of September 30, 2016:

For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, every percentage point depreciation / appreciation in the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and the U.S. dollar has affected the company's incremental operating margins by approximately 0.51% and 0.51%, respectively.

For the six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, every percentage point depreciation / appreciation in the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and the U.S. dollar has affected the company's incremental operating margins by approximately 0.50% and 0.50%, respectively.

Sensitivity analysis is computed based on the changes in the income and expenses in foreign currency upon conversion into functional currency, due to exchange rate fluctuations between the previous reporting period and the current reporting period.

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 these contracts is generally a bank. These derivative financial instruments are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. The following table gives details in respect of outstanding foreign exchange forward and options contracts:

The Group recognized a net gain on derivative financial instruments of $26 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and a net loss of $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, which is included under other income.

The Group recognized a net gain on derivative financial instruments of $33 million for the six months ended September 30, 2016 and a net loss of $14 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015, which is included under other income.

The foreign exchange forward and option contracts mature within 12 months. The table below analyses the derivative financial instruments into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period as of the balance sheet date:

(Dollars in millions)

Later than three months and not later than one year	334	157
	990	911

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the group has designated certain foreign exchange forward contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions. Accordingly, the fair value changes of less than $1 million was recorded in the other comprehensive income for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016. The related hedge transactions for balance in cash flow hedging reserve are expected to occur and reclassified to the statement of comprehensive income within 3 months.

The group offsets a financial asset and a financial liability when it currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The following table provides quantitative information about offsetting of derivative financial assets and derivative financial liabilities:

Amount set off	–	–	(1)	1
Net amount presented in balance sheet	13	–	17	(1)

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to $1,737 million and $1,710 million as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to $584 million and $457 million as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively. Trade receivables and unbilled revenue are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in the United States. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Group grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The group uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues. The provision matrix takes into account available external and internal credit risk factors such as credit default swap quotes, credit ratings from international credit rating agencies and the Group's historical experience for customers.

The following table gives details in respect of percentage of revenues generated from top customer and top five customers:

(In %)

	Three months ended September 30,		Six months ended September 30,

Revenue from top customer	3.5	3.7	3.5	3.7
Revenue from top five customers	13.1	14.0	13.4	14.0

Credit risk exposure

The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $4 million. The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $2 million. The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the six months ended September 30, 2016 was $6 million. The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the six months ended September 30, 2015 was $1 million.

Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as we generally invest in deposits with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international and domestic credit rating agencies. Investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units, quoted bonds issued by government and quasi government organizations, non convertible debentures issued by government aided institutions and certificates of deposit which are funds deposited at a bank for a specified time period.

Liquidity risk

The Group's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Group has no outstanding bank borrowings. The Group believes that the working capital is sufficient to meet its current requirements.

As of September 30, 2016, the Group had a working capital of $6,111 million including cash and cash equivalents of $4,763 million and current investments of $323 million. As of March 31, 2016, the Group had a working capital of $5,804 million including cash and cash equivalents of $4,935 million and current investments of $11 million.

As of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the outstanding employee benefit obligations were $216 million and $202 million, respectively, which have been substantially funded. Accordingly, no liquidity risk is perceived.

2.8 Goodwill

Following is a summary of changes in the carrying amount of goodwill:

(Dollars in millions)

	As of
	September 30, 2016	March 31, 2016
Carrying value at the beginning	568	495
Goodwill on Kallidus d.b.a Skava acquisition (Refer note 2.9)	–	71
Goodwill on Noah acquisition (Refer note 2.9)	–	5
Translation differences	(2)	(3)
Carrying value at the end	566	568

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the cash generating units (CGU) or groups of CGU’s, which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition. The chief operating decision maker reviews the goodwill for any impairment at the operating segment level, which is represented through groups of CGU’s.

During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Company reorganized some of its segments to enhance executive customer relationships, improve focus of sales investments and increase management oversight. Consequent to these internal reorganizations there were changes effected in the segments based on the “management approach” as defined in IFRS 8, Operating Segments. (Refer Note 2.14). Accordingly the goodwill has been allocated to the new operating segments as at March 31, 2016.

(Dollars in millions)

Segment	As of
	March 31, 2016
Financial services	128
Manufacturing	64
Retail, Consumer packaged goods and Logistics	87
Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance	99
Energy & utilities, Communication and Services	119
	497
Operating segments without significant goodwill	71
Total	568

The entire goodwill relating to Infosys BPO’s acquisition of McCamish has been allocated to the group of CGU’s which is represented by the Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance segment.

The goodwill relating to Infosys Lodestone, Portland, Panaya and Kallidus d.b.a Skava acquisitions has been allocated to the groups of CGU’s which are represented by the entity’s operating segment.

The entire goodwill relating to Noah acquisition has been allocated to the group of CGU's which is represented by the Energy & utilities, Communication and Services segment.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. The fair value of a CGU is determined based on the market capitalization. The value-in-use is determined based on specific calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections over a period of five years. As of March 31, 2016, the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU exceeded its carrying amount. The recoverable amount was computed based on the fair value being higher than value-in-use and the carrying amount of the CGU was computed by allocating the net assets to operating segments for the purpose of impairment testing. The key assumptions used for the calculations are as follows:

In %

	As of March 31, 2016
Long term growth rate	8-10
Operating margins	17-20
Discount rate	14.2

The above discount rate is based on the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) of the Company. These estimates are likely to differ from future actual results of operations and cash flows.

2.9 Business combination

Noah Consulting LLC

On November 16, 2015, Infosys has acquired 100% membership interest in Noah Consulting, LLC (Noah), a leading provider of advanced information management consulting services for the oil and gas industry. The business acquisition was conducted by entering into a share purchase agreement for cash consideration of $33 million, contingent consideration of upto $5 million and an additional consideration of upto $32 million, referred to as retention bonus payable to the employees of Noah at each anniversary year following the acquisition date for the next three years, subject to their continuous employment with the group at each anniversary.

This acquisition combines Noah’s industry knowledge, information strategy planning, data governance and architecture capabilities with Infosys’ ability to provide technology and outsourcing services on a global scale to oil and gas clients. The excess of the purchase consideration paid over the fair value of assets acquired has been attributed to goodwill.

The purchase price has been allocated based on management’s estimates and independent appraisal of fair values as follows:

(Dollars in millions)

Component	Acquiree's carrying amount	Fair value adjustments	Purchase price allocated
Net assets^(*)	6	–	6
Intangible assets – technical knowhow	–	4	4
Intangible assets – trade name	–	4	4
Intangible assets - customer contracts and relationships	–	18	18
	6	26	32
Goodwill			5
Total purchase price			37

*Includes cash and cash equivalents acquired of $3 million.

Goodwill of $1 million is tax deductible.

The gross amount of trade receivables acquired and its fair value is $4 million and the amounts have been largely collected.

The acquisition date fair value of each major class of consideration as of the acquisition date is as follows:

(Dollars in millions)

Component	Consideration
Cash paid	33
Fair value of contingent consideration	4
Total purchase price	37

The fair value of contingent consideration is determined by discounting the estimated amount payable to the sellers of Noah on achievement of certain financial targets. At acquisition date, the key inputs used in determination of the fair value of contingent consideration are the discount rate of 32% and the probabilities of achievement of the financial targets. During year ending March 31, 2016, based on an assessment of Noah achieving the targets for the year ending December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016, the entire contingent consideration has been reversed in the statement of comprehensive income

The retention bonus is treated as a post-acquisition employee remuneration expense as per IFRS 3R. For the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016, a post-acquisition employee remuneration expense of $4 million and $9 million has been recorded in the statement of comprehensive income.

The transaction costs of $2 million related to the acquisition have been included under administrative expenses in the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2016.

Finacle and Edge Services

On April 24, 2015, the Board of Directors of Infosys authorized the Company to execute a Business Transfer Agreement and related documents with EdgeVerve, a wholly owned subsidiary, to transfer the business of Finacle and Edge Services. Post the requisite approval from shareholders through postal ballot on June 4, 2015, a Business Transfer Agreement and other related documents were executed with EdgeVerve to transfer the business with effect from August 1, 2015. The company had undertaken an enterprise valuation by an independent valuer and accordingly the business was transferred for a consideration of 3,222 crore (approximately $491 million) and 177 crore (approximately $27 million) for Finacle and Edge Services, respectively.

The consideration was settled through issue of 85,00,00,000 equity shares amounting to 850 crore (approximately $129 million) and 25,49,00,000 non-convertible redeemable debentures amounting to 2,549 crore (approximately $389 million) in EdgeVerve, post the requisite approval from shareholders on December 11, 2015. During the six months ended September 30, 2016, EdgeVerve has repaid 270 crore (approximately $41 million) by redeeming proportionate number of debentures.

The transfer of assets and liabilities was accounted for at carrying values and did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Kallidus Inc. (d.b.a Skava)

On June 2, 2015, Infosys acquired 100% of the voting interests in Kallidus Inc., US (Kallidus), a leading provider of digital experience solutions, including mobile commerce and in-store shopping experiences to large retail clients and 100% of the voting interests of Skava Systems Private Limited, an affiliate of Kallidus. The business acquisition was conducted by entering into a share purchase agreement for cash consideration of $91 million and a contingent consideration of up to $20 million.

Infosys expects to help its clients bring new digital experiences to their customers through IP-led technology offerings, new automation tools and skill and expertise in these new emerging areas. The excess of the purchase consideration paid over the fair value of assets acquired has been attributed to goodwill.

The purchase price has been allocated based on management’s estimates and independent appraisal of fair values as follows:

(Dollars in millions)

Component	Acquiree's carrying amount	Fair value adjustments	Purchase price allocated
Net assets^(*)	6	–	6
Intangible assets - technology	–	21	21

Deferred tax liabilities on Intangible assets	–	(20)	(20)
	6	30	36
Goodwill			71
Total purchase price			107

*Includes cash and cash equivalents acquired of $4 million.

The goodwill is not tax deductible.

The gross amount of trade receivables acquired and its fair value is $9 million and the amounts have been fully collected.

The acquisition date fair value of each major class of consideration as of the acquisition date is as follows:

(Dollars in millions)

Component	Consideration
Cash paid	91
Fair value of contingent consideration	16
Total purchase price	107

The payment of contingent consideration to sellers of Kallidus is dependent upon the achievement of certain financial targets by Kallidus over a period of 3 years ending on December 31, 2017.

The fair value of contingent consideration is determined by discounting the estimated amount payable to the sellers of Kallidus on achievement of certain financial targets. At the acquisition date, the key inputs used in determination of the fair value of contingent consideration are the discount rate of 14% and the probabilities of achievement of the financial targets.

During the six months ended September 30, 2016 contingent consideration of $6 million was paid to the sellers of Kallidus on the achievement of certain financial targets. The balance contingent consideration as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 is $14 million and $20 million on an undiscounted basis.

The transaction costs of $2 million related to the acquisition have been included under administrative expenses in the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2016.

During the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016, the weighted average share price of options exercised under the 2015 Plan on the date of exercise was $15/- and $16/- respectively.

During the three months and six months ended September 30, 2015, the weighted average share price of options exercised under the 2015 Plan on the date of exercise was $16/-

The weighted average remaining contractual life of RSUs outstanding as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 under the 2015 Plan was 2.27 years and 1.98 years, respectively.

The fair value of each equity settled RSU is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton model with the following assumptions:

Particulars	For options granted in
	Fiscal 2017- Equity Shares	Fiscal 2017- ADS	Fiscal 2016- Equity Shares	Fiscal 2015- Equity Shares

Weighted average fair value as on grant date () / ($- ADS)*	1,019	15.59	948	3,355

* Data for Fiscal 2015 is not adjusted for bonus issues

The expected term of the RSU is estimated based on the vesting term and contractual term of the RSU, as well as expected exercise behaviour of the employee who receives the RSU. Expected volatility during the expected term of the RSU 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 RSU.

During the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, the company recorded an employee stock compensation expense of $3 million and less than $1 million and $4 million and less than $1 million, respectively in the statement of comprehensive income.

The applicable Indian statutory tax rate for fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 is 34.61%.

During the six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, the Group has claimed weighted tax deduction on eligible research and development expenditure based on the approval received from Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR) which is valid upto March 31, 2017. The weighted tax deduction is equal to 200% of such expenditure incurred.

The foreign expense is due to income taxes payable overseas principally in the United States. In India, the company has benefited from certain tax incentives that the Government of India had provided for export of software from the units registered under the Special Economic Zones Act, 2005 (SEZ). SEZ units which began the provision of services on or after April 1, 2005 are eligible for a deduction of 100 percent of profits or gains derived from the export of services for the first five years from the financial year in which the unit commenced the provision of services and 50 percent of such profits or gains for further five years. Up to 50% of such profits or gains is also available for a further five years subject to creation of a Special Economic Zone re-Investment Reserve out of the profit of the eligible SEZ units and utilization of such reserve by the Company for acquiring new plant and machinery for the purpose of its business as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

As of September 30, 2016, claims against the group not acknowledged as debts from the Indian Income tax authorities net of amount paid to statutory authorities of $658 million (4,383 crore) amounted to $1 million (7 crore).

As of March 31, 2016, claims against the group not acknowledged as debts from the Indian Income tax authorities net of amount paid to statutory authorities of $662 million (4,383 crore) amounted to $1 million (7 crore).

Payment of $658 million (4,383 crore) includes demands from the Indian Income tax authorities of $621 million ( 4,135 crore), including interest of $184 million (1,224 crore) upon completion of their tax assessment for fiscal 2007, fiscal 2008, fiscal 2009, fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2011. These demands were paid to statutory tax authorities. The company has filed an appeal with the income tax appellate authorities.

Demand for fiscal 2007, fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2009 includes disallowance of a portion of the deduction claimed by the company under Section 10A of the income Tax Act as determined by the ratio of export turnover to total turnover. The disallowance arose from certain expenses incurred in foreign currency being reduced from export turnover but not reduced from total turnover. Demand for fiscal 2007, fiscal 2008, fiscal 2009, fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2011 also includes disallowance of portion of profit earned outside India from the STP units under section 10A of the Income Tax Act and disallowance of profits earned from SEZ units under section 10AA of the Income Tax Act. The matters for fiscal 2007, fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2009 are pending before the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) Bangalore. The matter for fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2011 is pending before Hon’ble Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) Bangalore.

The company is contesting the demand and the management including its tax advisors believes that its position will likely be upheld in the appellate process. The management believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

2.12 Reconciliation of basic and diluted shares used in computing earnings per share

2.14 Segment Reporting

IFRS 8 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. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Group reorganized some of its segments to enhance executive customer relationships, improve focus of sales investments and increase management oversight consequent to which, erstwhile manufacturing segment is now being reviewed as Hi-Tech, Manufacturing and others included in ECS. Additionally, Infosys Public services (IPS) is being reviewed separately by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). Consequent to the internal reorganizations, there were changes effected in the reportable business segments based on the "management approach" as defined in IFRS 8, Operating Segments. The CODM evaluates the Company's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments and geographic segments. Accordingly, information has been presented both along business segments and geographic 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 significant accounting policies.

Business segments of the Group are primarily enterprises in Financial Services (FS), enterprises in Manufacturing (MFG), enterprises in Retail, Consumer packaged goods and Logistics (RCL), enterprises in the Energy & utilities, Communication and Services (ECS), enterprises in Hi-Tech (Hi-Tech), enterprises in Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance (HILIFE) and all other segments. The FS reportable segments has been aggregated to include the Financial Services operating segment and the Finacle operating segment. All other segments represents the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan and China and IPS. Geographic segmentation is based on business sourced from that geographic region and delivered from both on-site and off-shore locations. North America comprises the United States of America, Canada and Mexico, Europe includes continental Europe (both the east and the west), Ireland and the United Kingdom, and the Rest of the World comprising all other places except those mentioned above and India. Consequent to the above changes in the composition of reportable business segments, the prior period comparatives have been restated.

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 IPS and revenue generated from customers located in India, Japan and China. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services from the Company's offshore software development centres and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated turnover of the segment. Certain expenses such as depreciation, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically allocable to specific segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. 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. 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.

Geographical information on revenue and business segment revenue information is collated based on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.

2.16 Dividends

The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees. The remittance of dividends outside India is governed by Indian law on foreign exchange and is subject to applicable distribution taxes.

The amount of per share dividend recognized as distributions to equity shareholders for the six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015 was 14.25/- per equity share ($0.22 per equity share) and 29.50/- per equity share ($0.47 per equity share) (not adjusted for June 17, 2015 bonus issue).

The Board of Directors, in their meeting on October 14, 2016, declared an interim dividend of approximately $0.17 per equity share (11/- per equity share), which would result in a net cash outflow of approximately $455 million, (excluding dividend paid on treasury shares) inclusive of corporate dividend tax.

2.17 Share capital and share premium

The Company has only one class of shares referred to as equity shares having a par value of 5/-. The Company has allotted 1,148,472,332 fully paid up equity shares of face value 5/- each during the three months ended June 30, 2015 pursuant to a bonus issue approved by the shareholders through postal ballot. Book closure date fixed by the Board was June 17, 2015. Bonus share of one equity share for every equity share held, and a stock dividend of one American Depositary Share (ADS) for every ADS held, respectively, has been allotted. Consequently, the ratio of equity shares underlying the ADSs held by an American Depositary Receipt holder remains unchanged. Options granted under the restricted stock unit plan have been adjusted for bonus shares. 11,292,934 and 11,323,576 shares were held by controlled trust, as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively.

The amount received in excess of the par value has been classified as share premium. Additionally, share-based compensation recognized in net profit in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is credited to share premium. Amounts have been utilised for bonus issue from share premium account.

IFRS 16 Leases : On January, 2016, the International Accounting Standards Board issued the final version of IFRS 16, Leases. IFRS 16 will replace the existing leases Standard, IAS 17 Leases, and related Interpretations. The Standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract i.e., the lessee and the lessor. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. Currently, operating lease expenses are charged to the statement of comprehensive income. The Standard also contains enhanced disclosure requirements for lessees.

Financial risk management

Financial risk factors

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The primary market risk to the Group is foreign exchange risk. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange related risk exposures. The Group's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer and the concentration of risk from the top few customers.

Market risk

The Group operates internationally and a major portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in the United States and elsewhere, and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. 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 exchange rate between the Indian rupee and foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Group’s operations are adversely affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to 11,571 crore and 11,330 crore as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to 3,892 crore and 3,029 crore as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively. Trade receivables and unbilled revenue are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in the United States. Credit risk has always been managed by the group through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Group grants credit terms in the normal course of business. On account of adoption of IFRS 9, the group uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain. The group uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues. The provision matrix takes into account available external and internal credit risk factors such as credit default swap quotes, credit ratings from international credit rating agencies and the Group's historical experience for customers.

The following table gives details in respect of percentage of revenues generated from top customer and top five customers:

(In %)

2.8 Goodwill

Following is a summary of changes in the carrying amount of goodwill:

(In crore)

	As of
	September 30, 2016	March 31, 2016
Carrying value at the beginning	3,764	3,091
Goodwill on Kallidus d.b.a Skava acquisition (Refer note 2.9)	–	452
Goodwill on Noah acquisition (Refer note 2.9)	–	30
Translation differences	7	191
Carrying value at the end	3,771	3,764

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the cash generate units (CGU) or groups of CGU’s, which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition. The chief operating decision maker reviews the goodwill for any impairment at the operating segment level, which is represented through groups of CGU’s.

(In crore)

Segment	As of
	March 31, 2016
Financial services	851
Manufacturing	423
Retail, Consumer packaged goods and Logistics	573
Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance	656
Energy & Utilities, Communication and Services	789
	3,292
Operating segments without significant goodwill	472
Total	3,764

The entire goodwill relating to Infosys BPO’s acquisition of McCamish has been allocated to the groups of CGU’s which are represented by the Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance segment.

The entire goodwill relating to Noah acquisition has been allocated to the group of CGU's which is represented by the Energy & Utilities, Communication and Services segment.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. The fair value of a CGU is determined based on the market capitalization. The value-in-use is determined based on specific calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections over a period of five years. An average of the range of each assumption used is mentioned below. As of March 31, 2016, the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU exceeded its carrying amount. The recoverable amount was computed based on the fair value being higher than value-in-use and the carrying amount of the CGU was computed by allocating the net assets to operating segments for the purpose of impairment testing. The key assumptions used for the calculations are as follows:

(in %)

	March 31, 2016
Long term growth rate	8-10
Operating margins	17-20
Discount rate	14.2

The above discount rate is based on the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) of the Company. These estimates are likely to differ from future actual results of operations and cash flows.

Particulars	For options granted in
	Fiscal 2017- Equity Shares	Fiscal 2017- ADS	Fiscal 2016- Equity Shares	Fiscal 2015- Equity Shares

Weighted average fair value as on grant date () / ($- ADS)*	1,019	15.59	948	3,355

* Data for Fiscal 2015 is not adjusted for bonus issues

The expected term of an RSU is estimated based on the vesting term and contractual term of the RSU, as well as expected exercise behaviour of the employee who receives the RSU. Expected volatility during the expected term of the RSU 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 RSU.

During the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, the company recorded an employee stock compensation expense of 21 crore and 2 crore and 30 crore and 4 crore, respectively in the statement of comprehensive income.

IFRS 8 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. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Group reorganized some of its segments to enhance executive customer relationships, improve focus of sales investments and increase management oversight consequent to which, erstwhile manufacturing segment is now being reviewed as Hi-Tech, Manufacturing and others included in ECS. Additionally, Infosys Public services (IPS) is being reviewed separately by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). Consequent to the internal reorganizations, there were changes effected in the reportable business segments based on the "management approach" as defined in IFRS 8, Operating Segments. The CODM evaluates the Group's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments and geographic segments. Accordingly, information has been presented both along business segments and geographic 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 significant accounting policies.

Business segments of the Group are primarily enterprises in Financial Services (FS), enterprises in Manufacturing (MFG), enterprises in Retail, Consumer packaged goods and Logistics (RCL), enterprises in the Energy & utilities, Communication and Services (ECS), enterprises in Hi-tech (Hi-TECH), enterprises in Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance (HILIFE) and all other segments. The FS reportable segments has been aggregated to include the Financial Services operating segment and the Finacle operating segment. All other segments represents the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan and China and IPS. Geographic segmentation is based on business sourced from that geographic region and delivered from both on-site and off-shore locations. North America comprises the United States of America, Canada and Mexico, Europe includes continental Europe (both the east and the west), Ireland and the United Kingdom, and the Rest of the World comprising all other places except those mentioned above and India. Consequent to the above changes in the composition of reportable business segments, the prior period comparatives have been restated.

Geographical information on revenue and business segment revenue information is collated based on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. Company Overview and Significant Accounting Policies

1.1

Company overview

Infosys ('the Company') is a leading provider in consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation services. Along with its subsidiaries, Infosys provides Business IT services (comprising application development and maintenance, independent validation, infrastructure management, engineering services comprising product engineering and life cycle solutions and business process management); Consulting and systems integration services (comprising consulting, enterprise solutions, systems integration and advanced technologies); Products, business platforms and solutions to accelerate intellectual property-led innovation including Finacle, our banking solution; and offerings in the areas of Analytics, Cloud, and Digital Transformation.

The Company is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in India and has its registered office at Bangalore, Karnataka, India. The company has its primary listings on the BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange in India. The Company’s American Depositary Shares representing equity shares are also listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Euronext London and Euronext Paris.

The interim financial statements are approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on October 14, 2016.

1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the provisions of the Companies Act 2013 (Act') (to the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies ( Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016.

The company has adopted all the Ind AS standards and the adoptions was carried out in accordance with Ind AS 101 First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards. The transition was carried out from Indian Accounting Principles generally accepted in India as prescribed under Sec 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (IGAAP), which was the previous GAAP. Reconciliations and descriptions of the effect of the transition has been summarized in Note 2.1.

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.

1.3 Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS 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 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 1.4. 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 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 financial statements.

1.4 Critical accounting estimates

a. Revenue recognition

The company uses the percentage-of-completion method in accounting for its fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the company to estimate the efforts or costs expended to date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates at the reporting date.

b. Income taxes

The company's two major tax jurisdictions are India and the U.S., though the company also files tax returns in other overseas jurisdictions. Significant judgements are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions. Also refer to Note 2.17 and Note 2.24.

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 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.

1.5 Revenue recognition

In arrangements for software development and related services and maintenance services, the company has applied the guidance in Ind AS 18, Revenue, by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each separately identifiable component of a single transaction. The arrangements generally meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as separately identifiable components. For allocating the consideration, the company has measured the revenue in respect of each separable component of a transaction at its fair value, in accordance with principles given in Ind AS 18. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence of its fair value. In cases where the company is unable to establish objective and reliable evidence of fair value for the software development and related services, the company has used a residual method to allocate the arrangement consideration. In these cases the balance of the consideration, after allocating the fair values of undelivered components of a transaction has been allocated to the delivered components for which specific fair values do not exist.

License fee revenues are recognized when the general revenue recognition criteria given in Ind AS 18 are met. Arrangements to deliver software products generally have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS). The company has applied the principles given in Ind AS 18 to account for revenues from these multiple element arrangements. Objective and reliable evidence of fair value has been established for ATS. Objective and reliable evidence of fair value is the price charged when the element is sold separately. When other services are provided in conjunction with the licensing arrangement and objective and reliable evidence of their fair values have been established, the revenue from such contracts are allocated to each component of the contract in a manner, whereby revenue is deferred for the undelivered services and the residual amounts are recognized as revenue for delivered elements. In the absence of objective and reliable evidence of fair value for implementation, the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation 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 services are performed. ATS revenue is recognized ratably over the period in which the services are rendered.

Advances received for services and products are reported as client deposits until all conditions for revenue recognition are met.

The company presents revenues net of value-added taxes in its statement of profit and loss.

1.6 Property, plant and equipment

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 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	22-25 years
Plant and machinery	5 years
Office equipment	5 years
Computer equipment	3-5 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Vehicles	5 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end.

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 put 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. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in net profit in the statement of profit and loss when incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset and the resultant gains or losses are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Assets to be disposed off are reported at the lower of the carrying value or the fair value less cost to sell.

1.7 Intangible assets

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 labour, overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use. Research and development costs and software development costs incurred under contractual arrangements with customers are accounted as expenses in the statement of profit and loss.

1.8 Financial instruments

1.8.1 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, 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.

1.8.2 Subsequent measurement

a. Non-derivative financial instruments

(i)

Financial assets carried at amortised cost

(ii)

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

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. Further, in cases where the company has made an irrevocable election based on its business model, for its investments which are classified as equity instruments, the subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.

(iii) Financial assets 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

(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 these contracts is generally a bank.

(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities, at fair value through profit or loss.

This category has 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 a 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.

(iii)

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 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 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 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 statement of profit and loss.

c. Share capital

Ordinary Shares

1.8.3 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.

1.9 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, 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.

1.10 Impairment

a. Financial assets

The company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables 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 amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss.

b. Non-financial assets

(i) Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment

If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the 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 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 or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

1.11 Provisions

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 for corrections of errors and support on all 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. 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.

1.12 Foreign currency

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 included in net profit in the statement of profit and loss. 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.

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.

1.13 Earnings per equity share

1.14 Income taxes

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 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, 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. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are credited to share premium.

1.15 Employee benefits

1.15.1 Gratuity

The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees. 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.

Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plan are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each balance sheet date using the projected unit credit method. The company fully contributes all ascertained 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 Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by laws of India.

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. 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 are recognized in net profits in the statement of profit and loss.

1.15.2 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.

1.15.3 Provident fund

1.15.4 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.

1.16 Share-based compensation

The company recognizes compensation expense relating to share-based payments in net profit using fair-value in accordance with Ind AS 102, Share-Based Payment. The estimated fair value of awards is charged to 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 options outstanding account.

1.17 Cash Flow Statement

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 item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.

1.18 Dividends

Final dividends on shares are 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.

1.19 Other income

Other income is comprised primarily of interest income, dividend income and exchange gain/loss on forward and options contracts and on translation of other assets and liabilities. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established.

1.20 Leases

Leases under which the company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases.

2 Notes to the standalone financial statements for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016

2.1First-time adoption of Ind-AS

These standalone interim financial statements of Infosys Limited for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS. For the purposes of transition to Ind AS, the Company has followed the guidance prescribed in Ind AS 101 - First Time adoption of Indian Accounting Standard, with April 1, 2015 as the transition date and IGAAP as the previous GAAP.

The transition to Ind AS has resulted in changes in the presentation of the financial statements, disclosures in the notes thereto and accounting policies and principles. The accounting policies set out in note 1 have been applied in preparing the standalone financial statements for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and the comparative information. An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company’s balance sheet statement of profit and loss, is set out in note 2.2 and 2.2.2. Exemptions on first time adoption of Ind AS availed in accordance with Ind AS 101 have been set out in note 2.1.1.

2.1.1 Exemptions availed on first time adoption of Ind-AS 101

Ind-AS 101 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS. The company has accordingly applied the following exemptions.

(a) Share-based payment

The Company is allowed to apply Ind AS 102 Share-based payment to equity instruments that remain unvested as of transition date. The Company has elected to avail this exemption and apply the requirements of Ind AS 102 to all such grants under the 2015 plan (formerly 2011 plan). Accordingly, these options have been measured at fair value as against intrinsic value previously under IGAAP.

The excess of stock compensation expense measured using fair value over the cost recognized under IGAAP using intrinsic value has been adjusted in 'Share Option Outstanding Account', with the corresponding impact taken to the retained earnings as on the transition date.

(b) Designation of previously recognized financial instruments

Under Ind AS 109, at initial recognition of a financial asset, an entity may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument in other comprehensive income. Ind AS 101 allows such designation of previously recognized financial assets, as ' fair value through other comprehensive income' on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS.

Accordingly, the Company has designated its investments in certain equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS.

2.2 Reconciliations

The following reconciliations provides the effect of transition to Ind AS from IGAAP in accordance with Ind AS 101

Financial risk management

Financial risk factors

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The primary market risk to the Company is foreign exchange risk. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange related risk exposures. The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer and the concentration of risk from the top few customers.

Market risk

The Company operates internationally and a major portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in the United States and elsewhere, and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. 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 exchange rate between the rupee and foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Company’s operations are adversely affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies.

The following table analyzes foreign currency risk from financial instruments as of September 30, 2016:

Derivative financial instruments

The Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to 10,168 crore and 9,798 crore as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to 3,474 crore and 2,673 crore as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively. Trade receivables and unbilled revenue are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in the United States. Credit risk has always been managed by the group through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Group grants credit terms in the normal course of business. On account of adoption of Ind AS 109, the group uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain. The group uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues. The provision matrix takes into account available external and internal credit risk factors such as credit default swap quotes, credit ratings from international credit rating agencies and the Group's historical experience for customers.

The following table gives details in respect of percentage of revenues generated from top customer and top five customers:

The applicable Indian statutory tax rate for fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 is 34.61%.

The foreign tax expense is due to income taxes payable overseas, principally in the United States. In India, the company has benefited from certain tax incentives that the Government of India has provided to the export of software for the units registered under the Special Economic Zones Act, 2005 (SEZ). SEZ units which began the provision of services on or after April 1, 2005 are eligible for a deduction of 100 percent of profits or gains derived from the export of services for the first five years from the financial year in which the unit commenced the provision of services and 50 percent of such profits or gains for further five years. Up to 50% of such profits or gains is also available for a further five years subject to creation of a Special Economic Zone re-Investment Reserve out of the profit of the eligible SEZ units and utilization of such reserve by the Company for acquiring new plant and machinery for the purpose of its business as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Infosys is subject to a 15% Branch Profit Tax (BPT) in the U.S. to the extent its U.S. branch's net profit during the year is greater than the increase in the net assets of the U.S. branch during the year, computed in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code. As of March 31, 2016, Infosys' U.S. branch net assets amounted to approximately 5,109 crore. As of September 30, 2016, the Company has provided for branch profit tax of 336 crore for its U.S branch, as the Company estimates that these branch profits are expected to be distributed in the foreseeable future. The change in provision for branch profit tax includes 2 crore movement on account of exchange rate during the six months ended September 30, 2016.

Deferred income tax liabilities have not been recognized on temporary differences amounting to 4,701 crore and 4,195 crore as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively, associated with investments in subsidiaries and branches as it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities have been offset wherever the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and where the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.

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.

The gross movement in the deferred income tax account for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, is as follows:

(In crore)

Particulars	Three months ended September 30,		Six months ended September 30,

The credits relating to temporary differences during the six months ended September 30, 2016 are primarily on account of trade receivable, accrued compensation to employees and compensated absences partially offset by reversal of credits pertaining to property plant and equipment. The charge relating to temporary differences during the six months ended September 30, 2015 are primarily on account of property plant and equipment, trade receivables, accrued compensation to employees partially offset by compensated absences.

Particulars	As of
	September 30, 2016	March 31, 2016	April 1, 2015
Discount rate	6.9%	7.8%	7.8%
Weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels	8.0%	8.0%	8.0%

The weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015 are set out below:

Particulars	Three months ended September 30,		Six months ended September 30,
	2016	2015	2016	2015
Discount rate	7.8%	7.8%	7.8%	7.8%
Weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels	8.0%	8.0%	8.0%	8.0%
Weighted average duration of defined benefit obligation	6.4 years	6.5 years	6.4 years	6.5 years

Assumptions regarding future mortality experience are set in accordance with the published statistics by the Life Insurance Corporation of India.

The Company assesses these assumptions with its projected long-term plans of growth and prevalent industry standards. The discount rate is based on the government securities yield.

As of September 30, 2016, every percentage point increase / decrease in discount rate will affect our gratuity benefit obligation by approximately 55 crore.

As of September 30, 2016, every percentage point increase / decrease in weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels will affect our gratuity benefit obligation by approximately 46 crore.

Sensitivity for significant actuarial assumptions is computed by varying one actuarial assumption used for the valuation of the defined benefit obligation by one percentage, keeping all other actuarial assumptions constant.

Gratuity is applicable only to employees drawing a salary in Indian rupees and there are no other foreign defined benefit gratuity plans.

The Company contributes all ascertained liabilities towards gratuity to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust. Trustees administer contributions made to the trust. As of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the plan assets have been primarily invested in insurer managed funds.

Actual return on assets for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015 were 17 crore and 15 crore and 36 crore and 32 crore respectively.

The Company expects to contribute 50 crore to the gratuity trusts during the remainder of fiscal 2017.

Maturity profile of defined benefit obligation:

(In crore)

Within 1 year	128
1-2 year	135
2-3 year	143

The Company contributed 39 crore and 75 crore to the Superannuation trust during the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 (55 crore and 112 crore during the three months and six months ended September 30, 2015).

c. Provident fund

Infosys has an obligation to fund any shortfall on the yield of the trust’s investments over the administered interest rates on an annual basis. These administered rates are determined annually predominantly considering the social rather than economic factors and in most cases the actual return earned by the Company has been higher in the past years. The actuary has provided a valuation for provident fund liabilities on the basis of guidance issued by Actuarial Society of India and based on the below provided assumptions there is no shortfall as at September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 and April 1, 2015, respectively.

2.26 SEGMENT REPORTING

Ind AS 108 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 Company's operations predominantly relate to providing end-to-end business solutions to enable clients to enhance business performance. Based on the "management approach" as defined in Ind AS 108, the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) evaluates the Company's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments and geographic segments. Accordingly, information has been presented both along business segments and geographic 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 significant accounting policies.

Business segments of the Company are primarily enterprises in Financial Services (FS), enterprises in Manufacturing (MFG), enterprises in Retail, Consumer packaged goods and Logistics (RCL), enterprises in the Energy & utilities, Communication and Services (ECS), enterprises in Hi-tech (Hi-tech), enterprises in Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance (HILIFE) and all other segments. All other segments represents the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan and China. Geographic segmentation is based on business sourced from that geographic region and delivered from both on-site and off-shore locations. North America comprises the United States of America, Canada and Mexico, Europe includes continental Europe (both the east and the west), Ireland and the United Kingdom, and the Rest of the World comprising all other places except those mentioned above and India.

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 from customers located in India, Japan and China. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services from the Company's offshore software development centres and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated turnover of the segment. Certain expenses such as depreciation, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically allocable to specific segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. 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 Company.

Assets and liabilities used in the Company's business are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. 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.

Geographical information on revenue and business segment revenue information is collated based on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of these consolidated interim financial statements that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance including other comprehensive income, consolidated cash flows and consolidated changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting as specified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act’) read with relevant rules issued thereunder.

This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of 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 control, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the consolidated interim financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company’s Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated interim financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated interim financial statements.

INFOSYS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Company Overview and Significant Accounting Policies

1.1 Company overview

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 Bangalore, Karnataka, India. The company has its primary listings on the BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange in India. The company’s American Depositary Shares representing equity shares are also listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Euronext London and Euronext Paris.

The Group's consolidated financial statements are approved for issue by the company's Board of Directors on October 14, 2016

1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements

These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') (to the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016.

The Group has adopted all the Ind AS standards and the adoptions was carried out in accordance with Ind AS 101 - First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards. The transition was carried out from Indian Accounting Principles generally accepted in India as prescribed under Sec 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (IGAAP), which was the previous GAAP. Reconciliations and descriptions of the effect of the transition has been summarized in Note 2.1 and 2.2.

1.3 Basis of consolidation

Infosys consolidates entities which it owns or controls. The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the company, its controlled trusts and its subsidiaries as disclosed in Note 2.25. 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.

1.4 Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS 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 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 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 consolidated financial statements.

1.5 Critical accounting estimates

a. Revenue recognition

b. Income taxes

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 net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. Significant estimates are required to be made in determining the value of contingent consideration and intangible assets. These valuations are conducted by independent valuation experts.

d. Property, plant and equipment

e. Impairment of Goodwill

1.6 Revenue recognition

Advances received for services and products are reported as client deposits until all conditions for revenue recognition are met.

The group accounts for volume discounts and pricing incentives to customers as a reduction of revenue based on the ratable allocation of the discounts/ incentives amount to each of the underlying revenue transaction that results in progress by the customer towards earning the discount/ incentive. Also, when the level of discount varies with increases in levels of revenue transactions, the company recognizes the liability based on its estimate of the customer's future purchases. If it is probable that the criteria for the discount will not be met, or if the amount thereof cannot be estimated reliably, then discount is not recognized until the payment is probable and the amount can be estimated reliably. The company recognizes changes in the estimated amount of obligations for discounts in the period in which the change occurs. The discounts are passed on to the customer either as direct payments or as a reduction of payments due from the customer.

The company presents revenues net of value-added taxes in its statement of profit and loss

1.7 Property, plant and equipment

Building	22-25 years
Plant and machinery	5 years
Office equipment	5 years
Computer equipment	3-5 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Vehicles	5 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end.

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 put 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. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in net profit in the statement of profit and loss when incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset and the resultant gains or losses are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Assets to be disposed off are reported at the lower of the carrying value or the fair value less cost to sell.

1.8 Business combinations

Business combinations have been accounted for using the acquisition method under the provisions of Ind AS 103, Business Combinations.

Business combinations between entities under common control is accounted for at carrying value.

1.9 Goodwill

Goodwill represents the cost of business acquisition in excess of the Group's interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. When the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired exceeds the cost of business acquisition, a gain is recognized immediately in net profit in the statement of profit and loss. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

1.10 Intangible assets

1.11 Financial instruments

1.11.1 Initial recognition

1.11.2 Subsequent measurement

a. Non-derivative financial instruments

(i) Financial assets carried at amortised cost

(ii) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

(iii) Financial assets 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 and loss. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate the fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

b. Derivative financial instruments

(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities, at fair value through profit or loss.

This category has 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 a 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 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 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 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 statement of profit and loss.

c. Share capital and treasury shares

(i) Ordinary Shares

(ii) Treasury Shares

1.11.3 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.

1.12 Fair value of financial instruments

For all other financial instruments the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

1.13 Impairment

a. Financial assets

b. Non-financial assets

(i) Goodwill

Total impairment loss of a CGU is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU. An impairment loss on goodwill is recognized in net profit in the statement of profit and loss and is not reversed in the subsequent period.

(ii) Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment

1.14 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.

a. Post sales client support

The group provides its clients with a fixed-period post sales support for corrections of errors and support on all 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. 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.

1.15 Foreign currency

Functional currency

The functional currency of Infosys, Infosys BPO, controlled trusts, EdgeVerve and Skava is the Indian rupee. The functional currencies for Infosys Australia, Infosys China, Infosys Mexico, Infosys Sweden, Infosys Brasil, Infosys Public Services, Infosys Shanghai, Infosys Lodestone, Infosys Americas, Infosys Nova, Panaya, Kallidus and Noah are the respective local currencies. These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (rounded off to crore; one crore equals ten million).

Transactions and translations

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 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.

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.

1.16 Earnings per equity share

1.17 Income taxes

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 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, 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. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are credited to share premium.

1.18 Employee benefits

1.18.1 Gratuity

Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plan are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each balance sheet date using the projected unit credit method. The company fully contributes all ascertained liabilities to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust (the Trust). In case of Infosys BPO and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPO's 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 Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by law of India.

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. 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 are recognized in net profits in the statement of profit and loss.

1.18.2 Superannuation

1.18.3 Provident fund

1.18.4 Compensated absences

1.19 Share-based compensation

The Group recognizes compensation expense relating to share-based payments in net profit using fair-value in accordance with Ind AS 102, Share-Based Payment. The estimated fair value of awards is charged to 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 options outstanding account.

1.20 Cash Flow Statement

1.21 Dividends

1.22 Other income

1.23 Leases

Leases under which the group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. When acquired, such assets are capitalized at fair value or present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease, whichever is lower. Lease payments under operating leases are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis in net profit in the statement of profit and loss over the lease term.

1.24 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 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 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.

INFOSYS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES

2 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016

2.1 First-time adoption of Ind-AS

These consolidated interim financial statements of Infosys Limited and its subsidiaries for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS. For the purposes of transition to Ind AS, the company has followed the guidance prescribed in Ind AS 101 - First Time adoption of Indian Accounting Standard, with April 1, 2015 as the transition date and IGAAP as the previous GAAP.

The transition to Ind AS has resulted in changes in the presentation of the consolidated financial statements, disclosures in the notes thereto and accounting policies and principles. The accounting policies set out in note 1 have been applied in preparing the consolidated financial statements for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and the comparative information. An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Group’s Balance sheet, Consolidated Statement of profit and loss, is set out in note 2.2.1 and 2.2.2. Exemptions on first time adoption of Ind AS availed in accordance with Ind AS 101 have been set out in note 2.1.1

2.1.1 Exemptions availed on first time adoption of Ind-AS 101

Ind-AS 101 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS. The Group has accordingly applied the following exemptions

(a) Business Combination

The Group is allowed to choose any date in the past from which it wants to account for the business combinations under Ind AS 103, without having to restate business combinations prior to such date. Accordingly, the group has applied the standard for all acquisitions completed after April 1, 2007, which coincides with the group's date of transition to IFRS.

For all such acquisitions,

Intangible assets previously included within goodwill under IGAAP have been recognized separately in the opening Balance Sheet in accordance with Ind AS 103

deferred taxes have been recorded on intangible assets, wherever applicable

goodwill has been restated in accordance with Ind AS 21, with the corresponding impact in the other comprehensive income in equity

retained earnings has been adjusted to include the amortization on identified intangibles, net of taxes, that would have been recorded from the date of acquisition till the transition date.

(b) Share-based payment transaction

The group is allowed to apply Ind AS 102 Share-based payment to equity instruments that remain unvested as of transition date. The group has elected to avail this exemption and apply the requirements of Ind AS 102 to all such grants under the 2015 plan (Formerly 2011 plan). Accordingly, these options have been measured at fair value as against intrinsic value, previously under IGAAP.

The excess of stock compensation expense measured using fair value over the cost recognized under IGAAP using intrinsic value has been adjusted in 'Share Options Outstanding Account', with the corresponding impact taken to the retained earnings as on the transition date.

(c) Designation of previously recognized financial instruments

Under Ind AS 109, at initial recognition of a financial asset, an entity may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument in other comprehensive income. Ind AS 101 allows such designation of previously recognized financial assets, as 'FVOCI' on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS.

Accordingly, the Group has designated its investments in certain equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS.

Explanations for Reconciliation of Balance Sheet as previously reported under IGAAP to IND AS

(a) Goodwill and Intangible assets

Intangible assets and deferred tax asset/liabilities in relation to business combinations which were included within Goodwill under IGAAP, have been recognized separately under Ind–AS with corresponding adjustments to retained earnings and other comprehensive income for giving effect of amortisation expenses and exchange gains and losses.

(b) Investments

Tax free bonds are carried at amortised cost both under Ind AS and IGAAP. Investment in equity instruments are carried at fair value through OCI in Ind AS compared to being carried at cost under IGAAP.

(c) Deferred taxes

Deferred taxes in relation to business combinations have been recognised under Ind-AS

(d) Other financial Liabilities

Adjustments includes impact of discounting the deferred and contingent consideration payable for acquisitions under Ind AS

(e) Other liabilities

Adjustments that reflect unamortised negative past service cost arising on modification of the gratuity plan in an earlier period. Ind AS 19 - Employee Benefits requires such gains and losses to be adjusted to retained earnings. Also reflects adjustments for interim dividend (including corporate dividend tax), declared and approved by the board, post reporting period.

(f) Provisions

Adjustments reflect final dividend (including corporate dividend tax), declared and approved post reporting period.

(g) Other Equity

Adjustments to retained earnings and other comprehensive income has been made in accordance with Ind AS, for the above mentioned line items.

In addition, as per Ind-AS 19, actuarial gain and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income as compared to being recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss under IGAAP.

Explanations for Reconciliation of Profit and loss as previously reported under IGAAP to IND AS

(h)	1.	As per Ind-AS 19, actuarial gain and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and not reclassified to profit and loss in a subsequent period.

	2.	Adjustments reflect unamortised negative past service cost arising on modification of the gratuity plan in an earlier period. Ind AS 19 requires such gains and losses to be adjusted to retained earnings.

(i)

Adjustments reflect impact of discounting pertaining to deferred and contingent consideration payable for business combinations

(j)

Adjustment reflects impact of amortisation of intangible assets included within goodwill under the IGAAP, separately recognized under Ind-AS

(k)

Tax component on actuarial gains and losses which was transferred to other comprehensive income under Ind AS

(l)

The reduction in deferred tax expense is on account of reversal of deferred tax liabilities recorded on intangible assets acquired in business combination.

(m)

Under Ind-AS, exchange differences on translation of foreign operations are recorded in other comprehensive income.

2.2.3 Cash flow statement

There were no significant reconciliation items between cash flows prepared under IGAAP and those prepared under Ind AS.

The entire goodwill relating to Infosys BPO’s acquisition of McCamish has been allocated to the groups of CGU’s which are represented by the Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance segment.

The goodwill relating to Infosys Lodestone, Portland, Panaya and Kallidus d.b.a Skava has been allocated to the groups of CGU’s which are represented by the entity’s operating segment.

The entire goodwill relating to Noah acquisition has been allocated to the group of CGU's which is represented by the Energy & Utilities, Communication and Services segment.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. The fair value of a CGU is determined based on the market capitalization. The value-in-use is determined based on specific calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections for a CGU / groups of CGU's over a period of five years. An average of the range of each assumption used is mentioned below. As of March 31, 2016 and April 1, 2015 the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU exceeded its carrying amount. The recoverable amount was computed based on the fair value less cost to sell being higher than value-in-use. The carrying amount of the CGU was computed by allocating the net assets to operating segments for the purpose of impairment testing. The key assumptions used for the calculations are as follows:

(in %)

	As of
	March 31, 2016	April 1, 2015
Long term growth rate	8-10	8-10
Operating margins	17-20	17-20
Discount rate	14.2	13.9

The above discount rate is based on the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) of the Company. These estimates are likely to differ from future actual results of operations and cash flows.

* Changes in fair values including interest accrued

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 following table presents fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2016:

Financial risk management

Financial risk factors

Market risk

The Group operates internationally and a major portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in the United States and elsewhere, and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. 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 exchange rate between the Indian rupee and foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Group’s operations are adversely affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies.

Derivative financial instruments

The Group holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures. The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank. These derivative financial instruments are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Duri.ng the three months ended September 30, 2016, the group has designated certain foreign exchange forward contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions. Accordingly, the fair value changes of 2 crore was recorded in the other comprehensive income for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016. The related hedge transactions for balance in cash flow hedging reserve are expected to occur and reclassified to the statement of profit or loss within 3 months.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to 11,571 crore and 11,330 crore as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to 3,892 crore and 3,029 crore as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively. Trade receivables and unbilled revenue are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in the United States. Credit risk has always been managed by the group through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Group grants credit terms in the normal course of business. On account of adoption of Ind AS 109, the group uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain. The group uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues. The provision matrix takes into account available external and internal credit risk factors such as credit default swap quotes, credit ratings from international credit rating agencies and the Group's historical experience for customers.

The following table gives details in respect of percentage of revenues generated from top customer and top five customers:

(In %)

Revenue from top five customers	13.1	14.0	13.4	14.0

Credit risk exposure

The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 was 25 crore and 40 crore, respectively. The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2015 was 11 crore and 7 crore, respectively.

In crore

	As of
	September 30, 2016	March 31, 2016

Deferred income tax liabilities to be settled within 12 months	(230)	(180)
Total deferred income tax liabilities	(632)	(626)

In assessing the reliability 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.

The gross movement in the deferred income tax account for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, is as follows:

In crore

	Three months ended September 30,		Six months ended September 30,

Net deferred income tax asset at the end	393	234	393	234

The credits relating to temporary differences during the six months ended September 30, 2015 are primarily on account of trade receivables, compensated absences, accrued compensation to employees, partially offset by property, plant and equipment, computer software amortization and post sales customer support.

Assumptions regarding future mortality experience are set in accordance with the published statistics by the Life Insurance Corporation of India.

The Company assesses these assumptions with its projected long-term plans of growth and prevalent industry standards. The discount rate is based on the government securities yield.

Gratuity is applicable only to employees drawing a salary in Indian rupees and there are no other foreign defined benefit gratuity plans.

The Company contributes all ascertained liabilities towards gratuity to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust. In case of Infosys BPO and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPO Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust and EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively.

2.26 SEGMENT REPORTING

Ind AS 108 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. Based on the "management approach" as defined in INDAS 108, the Chief Operating Decision Marker (CODM) evaluates the group's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments and geographic segments. Accordingly, information has been presented both along business segments and geographic 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 significant accounting policies.

Business segments of the group are primarily enterprises in Financial Services (FS), enterprises in Manufacturing (MFG), enterprises in Retail, Consumer packaged goods and Logistics (RCL), enterprises in the Energy & utilities, Communication and Services (ECS), enterprises in Hi-tech (Hi-tech), enterprises in Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance (HILIFE) and all other segments. The FS reportable segments has been aggregated to include the Financial Services operating segment and the Finacle operating segment because of the similarity of the economic characteristics. All other segments represents the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan and China and IPS. Geographic segmentation is based on business sourced from that geographic region and delivered from both on-site and off-shore locations. North America comprises the United States of America, Canada and Mexico, Europe includes continental Europe (both the east and the west), Ireland and the United Kingdom, and the Rest of the World comprising all other places except those mentioned above and India.

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 IPS and revenue generated from customers located in India, Japan and China. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services from the group's offshore software development centres and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated turnover of the segment. Certain expenses such as depreciation, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically allocable to specific segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. 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. 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.

Geographical information on revenue and business segment revenue information is collated based on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.
