    Ankur Rudra's questions to Infosys Ltd (INFY) leadership • Q1 2026

    Question

    Ankur Rudra of JPMorgan Chase & Co. questioned the decision to lower the upper end of the revenue guidance despite a strong Q1, asking what factors were weakening the growth outlook. He also inquired about margin trade-offs related to AI and whether AI increases vendor replaceability in consolidation deals.

    Answer

    CFO Jayesh Sanghrajka explained the guidance reflects an unchanged, uncertain macro environment, not an improving one, which was the assumption for the previous higher end. CEO Salil Parekh added that AI productivity gains are typically shared with clients, creating opportunities for more work, and that Infosys's strong AI and delivery capabilities make it a net beneficiary in vendor consolidations.

    Ankur Rudra's questions to Infosys Ltd (INFY) leadership • Q4 2025

    Question

    Ankur Rudra of JPMorgan Chase & Co. inquired about the timing of the revenue softness in Q4, the seasonality assumptions embedded in the FY'26 guidance, and whether the infusion of AI into existing projects could lead to revenue deflation.

    Answer

    CFO Jayesh Sanghrajka explained that two-thirds of the Q4 revenue decline was due to a higher-than-anticipated slip in third-party related revenue, which occurred late in the quarter. He noted the FY'26 guidance assumes normal seasonality but has a wide 3-point range to account for heightened uncertainty. CEO Salil Parekh added that while AI creates productivity benefits, it also opens new revenue opportunities, resulting in a net positive impact without causing overall revenue deflation.

    Ankur Rudra's questions to MakeMyTrip Ltd (MMYT) leadership • Q3 2025

    Question

    Ankur Rudra of JPMorgan asked if strong demand was masking underlying weakness seen in other consumer sectors and if there were demand differences between budget and premium travelers. He also inquired about the impact of currency volatility, the current business mix from B2B and international segments, and the potential size of the event and pilgrimage travel markets.

    Answer

    Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO, stated that they have not seen signs of a slowdown in travel and that growth was strong across all segments, including budget and premium. He noted that historically, currency volatility causes travelers to switch destinations rather than cancel plans. Mohit Kabra, Group CFO, added that the international business mix is now over 25% and the corporate business is at a ~$200 million quarterly run rate. He described pilgrimage and event travel as nascent but important long-term growth opportunities.

    Ankur Rudra's questions to MakeMyTrip Ltd (MMYT) leadership • Q2 2025

    Question

    Ankur Rudra asked for clarification on whether the international business share was based on volume or value, the reason for lower international salience in hotels versus air, the drivers of strength in air ticketing, and the level of back-end tech integration for a "connected trip" experience.

    Answer

    Group CEO Rajesh Magow and Group CFO Mohit Kabra confirmed the international share is by value (adjusted margin). They explained that the hotel segment's lower international salience is due to its more recent development compared to the long-standing international air business. Air ticketing strength comes from new features, corporate segment growth, and new distribution channels. Magow detailed that a unified back-end technology enables the "connected trips" feature, which drives cross-selling.
