Hi! Good Afternoon, Everyone. Great to be here. We just reported our First Quarter Results. While the revenue performance was not quite up to our mark that what myself and Pravin expected, we actually did extremely well in many areas of our business especially in the core areas that we have been focusing on both in the renewal of our existing core business as well as especially in the new areas. So that was very encouraging. But, of course, we had a slowdown in revenue growth compared to what we had expected and that lead to our 2.2% increase in our revenue over the course of the quarter. That happened primarily, as I have said earlier today, on the basis of certain unexpected, unanticipated slowdown in discretionary spending in some parts of the business, in particular in Consulting Services and in Package Implementation and then also some of the projects were slow to ramp up in some of the large deals that we won in the last few quarters. So that is where we are.

 

We are actually quite excited that in the renewal of our existing services with Design Thinking, with our work in Automation and with our work in innovation initiatives like Zero Distance, our core strategy is kicking in, and I am very heartened by that. It is happening now at a great scale as well as in the embrace and the adoption of our new services are becoming a revenue driver, we saw significant growth. So that is something that we are quite positive about. So overall I am happy with the overall performance during the quarter and disappointed at the revenue growth, but the rest of the aspect of the business have done well.

 

So with that while we are waiting for Ranga, Pravin and I can start and also our three presidents are here, and Krish is here, Manish is here, lot of our leadership team is here and would love to answer your questions.

 

 

 

 

Chandra

 

Chandra here. Vishal, just want to understand, you are completing 2-years at the helm next month. Till last quarter people thought the turnaround was sort of complete, Infosys is out of the woods, all those statements. Based on this quarter would it be fair to assume there are still some persistent issues in terms of ramp up with certain clients, how would you really assess this? Also a question for the HR Head, because of the spike in attrition, is this a seasonal issue, because people go for higher studies usually this quarter or are there other reasons and will we see this come down next quarter?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

I think that the embrace of our strategy across the company and in our client base is actually going extremely well. If you just look at the details of that which is for example the growth in our large deals, which means the clients are more and more confident about giving us this business and in our existing clients if you look at our top-5, top-10 and top-25 clients, we have seen huge growth, so top-25 clients actually grew by 4.4%; top-10 clients grew by close to 4% and these are significant drivers of our revenue in the number of $100 million plus clients went from 14 to 17, so that is a huge jump as well. So all these things are working extremely well.

 

Then as I mentioned already the new areas that Sandeep has been driving, this is something that has seen amazing growth of $55 million revenues that we added in the course of the quarter, $12 million of that growth actually came from things that are completely new, which is roughly 30% of the growth came from there. So these are all extremely encouraging sign. So I would not read anything from this from a long-term perspective, the strategy is kicking and so forth. Of course if the renew part of our main core business is working well and if the new part is working well, then where is the problem? The problem happened in some of the pockets of our businesses in Consulting, we had a significant decline, as I mentioned earlier, because of this couple of things, and then our India business we de-grew by $4 million and Finacle had a very good Q4 and so Finacle had $2.5 mn of decline, BPO was flat compared to other businesses. So we have going forward in the course of rest of this year and in the time ahead, we will of course we will focus more on these businesses as well in addition to continuing to fire on all cylinders on the main strategy. So I would not read more than that into it.

 

Krishnamurthy Shankar

 

Yes, I think you are right what happens is this Q1 is always a quarter where attrition is high and we have seen it over the last 4-5-years where there is a pickup of attrition of over 3% to 5% points this time, and this year is no different. Most of the attrition is at the entry level and I do not think that is a cause for concern. So looking at the trends it seems quite natural.

 

 

 

 

Aditya

 

Hi! Aditya from CNBC TV18. Just wanted to understand in terms of the geography spread US is I think up 2.5% sequentially, Europe is marginally down on a constant currency basis. So how does this tie into the comment that was made on some large projects not ramping up and are these early signs of issues around Brexit and are these telltale signs really?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Our main business is in US and Europe. So that is where the slow ramp up of the projects that I talked about and then from a Consulting perspective the discretionary reduction and non-renewal in some areas were also in Europe but this had nothing to do with Brexit or any of these kinds of macroeconomic, secular, the other fancy word is secular, so these have nothing to do with secular macroeconomic forces, this is simply client situation and our execution.

 

In terms of Brexit, it is my personal view on it is that whenever walls get created between businesses and between institutions, this is not a good thing generally from a societal perspective, but from a business point of view actually this is an opportunity for us, the more that systems become isolated and separate, the more there is need for integration, there is need for interoperability, there is need for transparency, analytics, governance, regulatory work, etc., So long term, over time assuming that Brexit happens this is going to be a good thing for us. In the near-term there is a lot of anxiety around it, people are trying to figure out what it means and so forth. So there is some uncertainty. But so far there is no impact in business because of Brexit and it has not. May be Mohit you can answer that part of the question.

 

 

 

 

Mohit Joshi

 

So as of now, I think the key thing is Brexit came as a shock for most of our clients as well. So they are in a process of preparing their plans depending on the approach the UK government takes for it. As of now with may be one exception, we have not really seen a negative impact to our business because of Brexit. In the long term as Vishal mentioned it is anybody’s guess, right, we could see potential upsides because of the restructuring of businesses, because of the regulatory mandates equally we could see negative surprises because of volatility and delays in decision-making, but as of now this externality has not really impacted our business.

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Just to add I think in the near term of course we did see the currency volatility, and Q1 of course we affectively hedged and the impact on profitability in fact we had some gains on hedges as well, but I think we do expect certain near-term volatility to continue not just in rupee but also in the cross currency and we are monitoring and taking appropriate hedging position.

 

 

 

 

Sarjeet

 

Vishal, hi! this is Sarjeet here from Bloomberg Quint. When you ended FY-’16 you had a TCV of nearly $2.9 bn, that gave the assumption that the guidance of 13.5%, of that 4% to 5% would be taken care of the TCV, now that TCV is not reflecting into the revenue and that is why you had a disappointing quarter. What percentage of the TCV is inactive or you are not able to ramp up as of now and what was the kind of addition to the TCV in the first quarter?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

I think you are right, our TCV wins last year was good and the same momentum has continued this quarter as well. The key thing is there is a natural progress of how that TCV translates into revenue and it is primarily affected by three big pieces -- One of course the nature of service itself, for example, certain services like Infrastructure Management, etc., the ramp up is gradual, first there will be transition followed by shadow support, then take over, it is a very gradual curve which kind of somewhat is back-ended, right, whereas in case of Application Development or Maintenance it is a more steady right from the first quarter you will have a very quick ramp up. So that is one.

 

The second one of course is sometimes clients also expect certain things to ramp up from existing vendor to the new vendor in one quarter and for various reasons say, Hey! This cannot happen in this quarter. We have been shifted to next quarter. It is not that the project are canceled, it is not that they are re-thinking, it is nothing to do with that. It is sometimes these things pushing by quarter and the ramp up happens. So it is a nature of service as well as it is very particular deal-specific, the ramp up curve. Typically, what we have seen is that for every $100 million of TCV for the current portfolio mix that we have in terms of services about 7.5% to 10% typically accrues during the first year. So that has been the trend line and we have not seen significant change on that. What Vishal and Pravin referred to earlier was primarily on account of certain ramp ups, the extent to which we expected did not happen in 1 or 2 cases, that is what they were referring to.

 

 

 

 

Sarjeet

 

Were they significant enough to bring down the guidance?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Bring down? That was not the only reason, right, they also said that it also had some of the discretionary Consulting and Package Implementation pieces slow down.

 

 

 

 

Participant

 

Hi! Vishal. So I have three to four doubts here. So basically the first thing you mentioned about the revenue declared the low revenue growth, but what I am also seeing here is the decline in the gross profit, which has gone into the negative territory for this and which is essentially as far as the income statement is coming, is showing the increase in the cost of sales is driven by that. Why has the cost of sales increased?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Let me first answer the profit question that you had. I think what you are comparing is really the quarter-to-quarter gross profit. That is not the right way to really compare for the first quarter, we have to really compare what has been the profit as compared to the Q1 of last year. As you clearly know the Q1 typically has compensation increases and the visa cost which will not be there in Q4. That is unique to Q1, right. But if you look at year-on-year, gross profit has increased by 10.5% and net profit has increased by 7.4% and operating profit has increased by 11.3%. So there is a seasonality on these compensation increase and visa cost which is unique to Q1 and it happens in every Q1. If we look at last Q1, also the same thing. So it is incorrect to state that year-on-year our profitability has declined, in fact, the operating margin of this quarter is 24.1%, it is 0.1% higher than operating profit of last year same quarter.

 

 

 

 

Participant

 

Talking about the segmentation, so how do you segment is as US, Europe and India. Now that Britain is separating from the Europe. Would you be creating another segment from that? Immigration issue I was talking about given the fact that every now and then Mr. Trump talks about the immigration thing, that he is against immigration and there is a probability that he would be coming to power in US and also to a certain extent …. is also quite not too in favor of immigrant. So how do you plan to deal with that issue and also H1B they are pushing somethings for H1B visa also?

 

Mohit Joshi

 

On the UK specific issue, the way we run our business is across global industry verticals and that will not change, so we will continue with that, and the reporting will continue, as we can see it now will continue to include Europe including the UK because the UK will geographically still remain a part of Europe. Then on the US immigration questions, I will pass it on to Sandeep.

 

 

 

 

Sandeep Dadlani

 

Thank you, Mohit. We have seen election cycle after election cycle, this is an election year and every election year there is the rhetoric over immigration, over H1B visas goes up dramatically, this year has been particularly dramatic because of the nature of the candidates and the nature of the polarization, but every year after this happens, things settle down and people come to their senses. What we are doing is consistent with our strategy which is three-fold here; #1 is leveraging disruptions in technology, we are trying to figure out new business models by which we have less dependency on onsite staffing in some kinds of projects. Second thing we are doing is in every market we operate at, not just America but in every other market we have to focus on local hiring, so we have local people, local experts who are closer to the client, who belong to that country. Thirdly, we leverage industry bodies like NASSCOM, CII, etc., to continue to articulate the value of our propositions to those different economies whether it is America or different countries. These three things we do on a continuous basis. That de-risks our dependency or on these kind of events if they may happen. So we are watching for developments very closely, but we do not expect anything dramatic.

 

 

 

 

Tanvi

 

Hi Vishal, this is Tanvi from Reuters, I was just wondering if you could throw some light on what other factors led to the cut in revenue forecast - are you expecting a slowdown in other markets or any other such reasons?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

No, as Ranga said earlier, we had a few factors contributing to lower-than-expected revenue growth in this quarter; one was the unexpected slowdown in the discretionary spending in Consulting and in Package Services, and the other was the slower-than-expected ramp up in projects from deals that we had won and couple of other small things like the decline in the India business and small decline in Finacle. So all together these contributed to revenue growth of 2.2%. When you look at the forecast guidance that we gave 11.5% to 13.5% for the year, the nature of our business is that it is centered on quarters and the first quarter impact ends up having a bigger impact on the rest of the year. So that is basically what brought down the guidance by 1 point.

 

 

 

 

Tanvi

 

So would the rise in Cloud-based services has had any impact yet?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Yes, it will have a positive impact. Sandeep was just telling me that our partnership with Microsoft and with Amazon and others in the Cloud area is doing extremely well, and Ravi started back in February a Legacy Modernization practice moving Legacy Infrastructure to the Cloud, that has been growing extremely well and perhaps Ravi can talk a little about that. So yes, Cloud is the Infrastructure delivery and consumption mechanism of our times and we are extremely excited about our offerings in this area.

 

Ravi Kumar S

 

Cloud-based services certainly has a positive impact, the per capita spend just goes up, the ticket sizes go down, but the number of transactions go up. What we have also done is a modernization initiative to move mainframes onto Cloud and that has picked up significant momentum with both Microsoft and Amazon. So, that is actually getting a lot of traction now and we are actually hoping that we could actually monetize this lot more in the next three quarters of the year.

 

 

 

 

Varun

 

Hi! Vishal, Varun here from Mint. A couple of questions to the management: So three things explains the lower revenue guidance – slowness in Consulting, significant slowdown in the projects which were supposed to pick up and it did not happen and finally some problems in ERP. Can the management just help explain quantitatively say how much each of these shaved off your growth from your revenue, because the 2.2% however you slice it, it is a poor start to our fiscals?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Varun, I think as Vishal earlier said, Q1 has a compounding effect and a very important quarter for the financial year. If you recollect last year we grew 4.6% in Q1. That gave us a good subsequent growth rate. As a thumb rule, every 1% reduction in the growth of Q1 impacts the entire financial year’s growth by 1%. That is broadly what we have seen in all our traditional pieces. So, if you look at when we gave the revenue guidance of 11.5% to 13.5% compared to that we expect around that kind of reduction in the Q1. So correspondingly as a measure of what always we believe in, as a measure of our practice, we have guided lower.

 

That 1% if you look at approximately $25 mn, right. Will 75 mn make an impact on the entire year? It is not the question. I think the key question is 1% reduction in Q1 typically impacts the entire year by 1%. Of course, there are the new services which are there which we need to see how they ramp up. The momentum is quite encouraging in Q1. But at this point in time we have to kind of state our guidance based on the visibility that we have and that has been always our practice. We are not saying that “Look, the world has come down or something like that.” We are just saying, “Look, here is the mechanics that we have and here is what our visibility is.” Based on which we are stating the guidance.

 

 

 

 

Varun

 

But my question was this $25 mn, can you help me understand that of the three slow areas, how much did each contribute so Consulting had degrowth by how much?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

I think we have stated the broad reasons, we cannot clearly talk about individual contracts and give customer names, etc., we have broadly indicated which are the revenue streams and broad reason. As I was responding to the earlier question on which of the projects ramp up which we had expected earlier in a couple of large deal wins, there are not many, couple of projects, but we cannot be that specific in naming the accounts.

 

 

 

 

Varun

 

The follow up to this is, the slowness in ERP, can you just give us some color – is it just limited to some particular clients or industries, let us say Retail, Financial sector, Healthcare what is really happening in this ERP space?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

The complex package implementations are not as frequent. I believe also this is a temporary thing, I do not see that as a secular thing. So, this is I think something that will come back. To your other question on ERP, we have a practice where we do package systems implementations and this practice grew less than the other practices. That is what we mean by this.

 

 

 

 

Varun

 

I mean, were you more vulnerable to particular industries?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

No.

 

Varun

 

All these projects ramp downs which have happened, can we expect it to come back in the second or the third quarter?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

No, so these are very different thing.

 

Varun

 

No, this is another thing.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Let me explain, there are no ramp downs. There is a slower than expected ramp up in projects from the deals that we have won, that is one thing. Unexpected reductions in discretionary spending around the Package Systems and Consulting is another thing. And slowdown in Finacle to the tune of $2.5 mn and slowdown in India to the tune of $4 mn to $4.5 mn were other things. So this is basically the situation, it is not any bigger deal than this.

 

Varun

 

So that is what I am trying to understand, why the slowness from the large deal wins? Is there something specific to clients?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Yes, we believe that it is in particular these two or three clients where we saw this happening, this is not anything broader than that.

 

Varun

 

And these two three clients are across which industry, I am not asking for names, but which industry?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Generally, Lifesciences, generally all these combination of events impact Lifesciences this quarter more than others.

 

Varun

 

Meaning, business comings?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Its ramp-up, and it is not ramp-down that Vishal corrected.

 

Varun

 

And can we expect these ramp-ups to happen in the second quarter, Ranga?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

I think at this point in time the visibility what we have we have said and we have to see how the Q2 progresses, let's see at the end of Q2. At this point in time we don’t want to make a very emphatic statement.

 

Varun

 

Just two more questions here. Firstly, a lot has been, like when you started with you brought Consulting last year through the parent Infosys, Infosys Consulting as a subsidiary, a lot more spoken in that it is the tip of the spear, you launched a new service line ‘Aikido’, great measures. Sadly, it has not really translated into revenue and now you have to live with this pain for the next nine months so to say. What is really happening sir, have you failed somewhere in your execution strategy?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

If you look at ‘Aikido’ and the design oriented services, those are actually growing quite well. The Consulting is our traditional Consulting business where close to 3,000 employees have worked, this is resulting from the earlier acquisition that we had made of Loadstone and of the home grown Management Consulting practice as well as the Package Implementation. So these are all together in this Consulting area. The tip of the spear initiative actually is our strategy and it has been working extremely well, that has in fact resulted in the huge number of strategic engagements that we have now with our clients, it has resulted in the large deal wins consistently over the last many quarters. This is all led by the same tip of the spear ‘Aikido’ services mindset, the $809 mn large deal TCV this quarter, $757 mn in the quarter before and so on and so forth. And also if you look at especially at our top clients’ performance, the top 25 clients grew by 4.5% in constant currency in the quarter. These top 25 clients in our business make a huge amount of percentage of revenue for us. Similarly, the top 10 clients also grew. This is all a result of the strategy.

 

The issue that I am talking about, there was an unanticipated issue was with regard to execution in a few projects from this, where because of discretionary spending cuts and so forth, the renewals did not happen and the projects ended without resulting in an ongoing follow through and so forth. So there is no significance to anything more broadly about Consulting in any of this. Consulting continues to be a very strategic part of our business and indeed the tip of the spear is the strategy that we have been executing on over the last year.

 

Varun

 

One last question sir. At the end of fourth quarter 13.8%, the upwards guidance that you had given on the dollar terms, in hindsight do you believe you and the board were a little aggressive in giving such kind of a guidance? And I am asking this question now because again you brought it down by 150 bps, the dollar, where you expect at best 12.3%. Are you now again under delivering? Why cannot we have an absolute whatever you are seeing in the market from your perch rather than so much of volatility, today the stock is down 9%, so much wealth investor has lost.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Varun, as I have said and Ranga also said, we have had a practice of sharing our guidance, our philosophy and not only in my time here but also going back a long before that has been to minimize the asymmetry between what we as the management see in our business and what our investors and financial markets see. And we do that by providing as accurate a guidance as we see ourselves. At the beginning of the year we saw 11.5% to 13.5% on constant currency terms or 11.8% to 13.8% on March 31 terms, and that is what we gave as the guidance. Now that we are three months into it, couple of things that we did not expect happened and a couple of slowdowns and so forth that I talked about. So as a result of that the visibility that we have now is in the 10.5% to 12% range and that is what we are what we are setting. There is nothing more to that or less to that. Ranga, you want to add anything?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Just to add, just while you were back into this room three months ago, if you look at it we exited FY16 on a positive 1.6% growth after several years of negative growth. So we had a good tailwind. Plus during the previous year we had 45% uptick in the TCV and many of those TCV wins we expected some of the ramp ups happening in Q1. So these were one of the key factors on improving and giving that particular guidance of 10.5% and 13.5%. So what has happened, we have reduced it by 1% at the lower end, right, from 11.5% to 10.5%. So precisely the same reason which indicated earlier, typically 1% reduction in Q1 growth rates impacts the entire year by 1%. So keeping in view our earlier belief that we will go by what the visibility we have at this point in time and based on the Q1 performance we will give that visibility. Based on Q4 performance last year we had that visibility, we gave at that time.

 

 

 

 

Pravin

 

Sir, Pravin here from New Indian Express. Now, this is on HR sir. Sir, the attrition rate at the gross level is 21% which is almost a one-fifth at the attrition level. So can you tell me sir, what verticals were the ones which felt the brunt of it?

 

Krishnamurthy Shankar

 

So the 21% that you are talking about is for the Infosys Group level which includes BPO and other things. If you look at just Infosys, that is about 15.7% or 15.8%. So frankly, I don’t think there is any vertical that is there, I just mentioned that most of our attrition is natural, at this time of the year people go for studies and all those kind of things. And all of that is people with three to four, five years of experience, that is the kind of areas where we lose people. Equally though, the other interesting thing is when we look at it our high performer attrition has come down, over the last quarter it has come down by almost 2 percentage point from about 13.2% to about 11.2%. So that is the significant improvement in what we see. So I think the attrition is, if you ask me it is more natural, more for people moving and doing other things like further studies, etc. And more importantly, the high performer attrition is something which is much more in our flavor and that is what we are aiming to kind of improve.

 

Pravin

 

I have one more. Sir, so at a vertical level you will not be able to share?

 

Krishnamurthy Shankar

 

All the verticals, I don’t think there is any very significant at all in any of the verticals.

 

 

 

 

Balaji

 

I don’t know what has been covered, but from a technical point of view I would like to know from Ranganath, how much actually this hedging is helping or not helping you? The way you have revised it, particularly in dollar terms, dollar value. Very simple words, simple figures, how much you hedged for this year and whether there has been more hedging happened and what has been the non-operative sequentially?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Sure. I see there are two questions there, let me talk about first hedging. Always our policy is that we hedge net FX assets on a rolling basis for about two quarters. We have consistently followed that hedging policy over several quarters and it has helped us. Even this quarter also it helped us in reducing the volatility on the P&L. So about $980 mn of hedging that is there on the books today across currencies. And if you look at I think, if you are referring to guidance, guidance 1% dip is in constant currency, so it is not really on the hedging or the currency movement, it is in constant currency. So that is primarily because of the business reasons that Vishal and Pravin outlined earlier. So as far as hedging, we hedge the net foreign assets which on a rolling basis for about six months that works about $970 mn to $980 mn.

 

Balaji

 

So how much you attribute actually for business situation and then to volatility if you are revising, because I think it was lower, what could be the ratio or a percentage?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

If you look at the hedging, primarily it comes under the other non-operating income and that has been stable, if you look at non-operating income is about $110 mn compared to $112 mn earlier, which has been pretty much stable. So we hedge our net FX asset on a rolling basis as I said. So hedging has actually shielded the volatility on the other operating income. I think if your question is on the revenue side, on the constant currency basis itself we have reduced the guidance, it is not really relating to a particular currency, it is in the constant currency basis.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Maybe I can add that Ranga's team under Ranga's leadership runs an extraordinary treasury operation and the safety and the liquidity of the financials is the primary priority and it is quite extraordinary what they do.

 

 

 

 

Participant

 

from CNBC TV18. Just wanted to understand what is the kind of pipeline that Company has at this point of time, both in terms of TCV and the number of large deals that the Company is chasing? And which verticals are showing more promise than others? Secondly, Vishal you did mention that there is some sort of slowness in the India business and some sort of tapering off of revenue happened on the Finacle side, if you could just throw some more light on that front. Thank you.

 

Mohit Joshi

 

So look, I mean we can talk more from a Q1 perspective, in Q1 we spoke about the fact that we had over $800 mn in TCV wins, these were 10 deals, these were spread across the world. So we had wins in Australia, the US, Europe and these were across industry segments. I think our pipeline remains healthy for large deals and we don’t quantify it beyond that. We have given you the breakup for Q1 and we remain optimistic about our conversion rates and the TCV to be declared for Q2.

 

Participant

 

Also on India revenues and Finacle revenues.

 

Pravin Rao

 

On India revenues, India typically a big percentage of our projects in India are government projects, these are all fixed priced system integration projects. So the revenue recognition and everything is based on the milestones we complete. India is also a very small base, so on a smaller base on a quarterly basis you will always find this fluctuations. So I don’t think we should read much into the India unit performance.

 

 

 

 

Vishal Sikka

 

And on Finacle, even though we have pointed that out as a decline, actually in the previous quarter Finacle had a great performance, in particular owing to a couple of large deals. And a drop by $2.5 mn in this quarter which again on a relatively small base of $72 mn - $73 mn, it looks large but actually the product has been doing extremely well. You heard some of the leading banks like PayTM and others have embraced Finacle and we have some massive deployments going on of Finacle, so we are continuing to be extremely excited about the prospects of Finacle.

 

…………..

 

I don’t want to comment on the strategy of other companies, in our case like Pravin said, a big percentage of the India business comes from government-related projects and so forth and then also the private sector projects are slowly increasing. But overall the India business is quite a small portion of our total revenue and that is in our case this is how it is.

 

…………

 

Pravin Rao

 

See, we are very selective in the kind of projects we take, we don’t go after every project in the government thing, we have been executing government projects and we have time and again said, it is very tough. But at the same time, if it is an interesting project which makes a big impact to the country, we want to take those. So we don’t go after every project, so whenever there is something interesting we do that. The last project we won was GST and which we thought is a good one. But as and when there are opportunities where it is very significant and impactful, we will be happy to bid.

 

 

 

 

Bhibu

 

One question about your short-term guidance and that has reflected on guidance that you have lowered for the full year. I wanted to check about the Vision 2020. Now given the uncertainty in the business environment and you have mentioned witnessed unanticipated slowdown in certain areas, also how slower ramp ups also happened in certain projects. And now that the full impact of Brexit is actually yet to unfold because it will take at least two years and you derive 23% of revenue from Euro. So given all this uncertainties, how comfortable you are at the moment towards the Vision 2020?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

So 2020 is a five to six-year long target, should not be affected by its definition if it is a long-term strategic ambition of the company, it should not be impacted by a quarter or even a particular year. We are on a large scale transformation of the way our company works, the way frankly also our industry works where we augment people with technology so that in the words of Prof. Mashelkar we can enable people to “do more with less for more” and in the process we transform ourselves from more a cost oriented industry towards an innovation and value-oriented industry where smaller number of people can do the same projects, where AI and automation simplify the work that is done by people that frees up productivity in order to unleash our creativity and our imagination. All of this, as we have showed in the last two years is happening, it is starting to pick up steam, it is starting to make an impact on the business and I expect that this will continue to grow and therefore I continue to be extremely excited about this ambition of ours, this aspiration of getting to $20 bn in 2020 with 30% margin and $80,000 of revenue per employee. This does not change as a result of one quarter.

 

Bibhu

 

Just one more follow-up question. Someone asked you about the India revenue, actually consistently for last few quarters we are seeing how India business for Infosys is not going. And in fact, you are one of the CEOs who are very bullish about this growth process in India, essentially after the new government took charge, how they are driving technology in all cities. Are we seeing that those are really not materializing in driving revenue for companies? And second thing, being someone who on and off discuss with global CEOs meet with them, how is the mood of the global CEOs about India?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

I think generally the mood of the global CEOs is hopeful, it is excited, they have a lot of hope assigned to the transformation that our government has been putting into place. A lot of the initiatives like ‘Make in India’ and ‘Smart Cities’ and so forth are still early, and in terms of deriving tangible commercial projects and software projects and services projects out of that, this is still in the early stages. We do remain excited about, for example, Smart Cities where we are doing a lot of work with other partner companies and actually using the Mana platform in many of these Internet of Things and Smart Cities oriented work. We have been working very hard towards transforming our campus in Mysore towards a Smart City and bringing in a lot of the instrumented air conditioning, power efficiency, power systems and so forth. Into our campuses, we have some of the latest, actually pioneering equipment running in our campuses including here in Bangalore. In Hyderabad we recently went 100% offgrid in terms of our energy consumption. Campus of close to 20,000 people is running 100% entirely on energy that we get from solar and so forth. And there are days when we give back the energy into the grid. So I think that we are at the cutting edge on these things and as the business opportunities become material and tangible, we will obviously go after that business as well. So there is a mood of optimism and hope but it is still I would say early in the journey.

 

Balaji

 

This, you are giving the guidance for the exchange rate of March 31st and then for June, how do we actually factor this down? What actually, because your business mostly in terms of constant currency………and the conversion piece So what is the message you are giving at the 31st it was 66 or something, now it is 67. Going forward there is a new thing I am seeing that every quarter you are benching that guidance to volatility rather than business operations.

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

So I think the constant currency is the guiding factor. So in the past we have got a lot of feedback saying that look we also need your visibility in reported turns, because as you rightly said constant currency is one number. However, as the currency changes during the course of the quarter and the year, it is important that we indicate to the market, look what we meant by constant currency in March, today how does it translate today, how does it translate in June. So we need to keep the consistency, otherwise investors and media and general people will be very confused. So we wanted from purely transparency standpoint we wanted to indicate, hey we said 11.5% to 13.5%, that translates this much in March basis and this much in June basis. So it is purely from completeness of information and transparency we want to provide.

……I don’t know it has been asked, it is a matter of concern, I don’t know what is now happening in France, God forbid, but this Swathi case in Chennai, though it happened somewhere in a station, it’s some kind of a crime and murder and all. In the light of these kind of unfortunate thing, what precautions or measures you are taking to ensure the safety and the protection of women employees? Previous quarter there was an unfortunate incident in Belgium that happened I don’t know, today in Nice it happened, I hope no Indian they said so far. But this regarding Swathi, has she really shared this information and whether the family will be compensated because she was in service, she was boarding a train to go to duty.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

No, this is an area that as a CEO you always dread hearing such a news and of course in the case of Belgium when we lost one of our Infoscions, Raghav, it was an extremely troubling time, it took us a long time to ascertain that it was in fact him and that he was there. And then in case of Swathi I found out that same evening that this had happened. We have 200,000 employees around the world and each one of us, our entire strategy, basis of our work is on the empowerment of each one of the employees and the value, the innovation, the creativity, the potential of each of one of these employees. So this is something that as a family it breaks our heart when we see this. We take it extremely seriously, I believe that we are as good as any company in the world when it comes to employee safety and creating a harmonious work environment where people come and feel happy and give their best. In particular, after Swathi's case, we did a lot of introspection, Krish and his team. I would like to ask if Richard is here, perhaps Richard can speak a few words about what are the kinds of things that we have done. With regard to Nice, we are watching that, so far we have no indication that there is any Infoscion involved there, but this is something that obviously we are watching extremely closely.

Richard Lobo

 

This was very sad, I mean something which we did not know. Unfortunately, she had not shared it with anybody else so we found this out much later. So we have worked closely with the government. We are also working with all our employees, women as well as men, to see how we can increase awareness to help them with some amount of self-defense to see if they can learn to go to the police earlier if they face such situation and take precautions. Given that, we have had a lot of cooperation and help from the government of Tamil Nadu and they have helped in solving the crime as early as they could. But it remains that as a sad incident we will do just like we do in any other case to compensate the family, but we can never compensate to the extent of bringing anybody back to life. But we will do what we can and we have a very strong insurance policy which we have had from a long time and we use that. Given that, we really hope that we never have such incidents again.

 

…………………

 

The compensation is similar, I don’t want to give the individual amount, because that is between us and the family, but it is not dependent on the years of service or the age profile of the person because life is life so we do not really differentiate.

 

…………….

 

We need some documentation, we have to work with the agency but it does not take too much time, within a month or so we will close this.

We have started Q1 on the back of very strong Q4 as we ended the previous financial year with one of the best Q4s in many years. I am disappointed with the revenue performance that we had in Q1. We grew by 2.2% in reported terms and I had expected that we will do better. This happened because of some unanticipated slowdown in some discretionary parts of Consulting and Package Implementation and also some of the large deals that we had won in the quarters before, were slower to ramp up. So as a result, the revenue performance was not quite what I expected. But at the same time, we had very strong performance in almost all the other metrics and I am quite encouraged by that. In particular in the execution of our strategy, we had strong performance in our delivery organization which has been renewing itself at a frantic pace on the basis of ‘Zero Distance’; collaborative grounds of innovation initiatives like that, on the basis of Design Thinking spreading pervasively; as well as on the basis of Automation where we saved additional 2,000 plus people worth of effort; as well as in large deal wins, we crossed $800 mn in large deal TCV wins; utilization improved. In almost every major metric in our top-5, top-10 and top-25 clients we grew significantly faster than the overall company. What I am most encouraged by is that our new services and our new areas in particular our MANA platform area, our work with Skava, with Edge Products showed significant improvement. That gives us quite a bit of reason to be excited as we look ahead to the future. So given the slowness in performance in particular in Consulting and related areas, where we lost in the neighborhood of about a percent or a little bit more than that that we had expected, we are lowering our guidance for the overall year given the visibility that we have in that part of the business, as well as looking at the overall situation and so forth. But, by and large we continue to be excited about our execution on our strategy in particular both in the renewal of our existing services and especially in the new areas that we are bringing that we are counting on as a way to transform our company to one where Software and Automation becomes an integral part of how services are delivered so that we can continually bring innovation, free people up to be more innovative, as well as continue to lower the cost, and improve the margins of our company on our march towards our 2020 ambition of $ 20 bn revenues, 30% operating margins and $80,000 revenue per employee. So, with that I would love to adopt to some questions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Rukmini Rao

 

Rukmini Rao from CNBC TV 18. A couple of questions really: The slowdown that you have reported this quarter, is that a one-off thing and what is the visibility that you have for the rest of the year? Also, in terms of guidance cut that has come, wanted to understand what is driving this? Also, if you can elaborate on the volume growth front, we have seen a muted growth.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

So as we look ahead, we are extremely encouraged by the performance in particular in the new services as well as in the renewal of our core services and in the large deal wins. So these three are going to help us continue to deliver good performance over the rest of the year and obviously we will work very hard to get back to the kind of performance and even exceed the performance that we have seen in the recent years. But, the slowdown that we saw in a couple of these areas, since the nature of our business is that in the beginning of the year if you do this, then it takes a bit longer to recover from that, and some other macroeconomic uncertainties that we see. So altogether when we were looking at it given that we did 2.2% in the quarter, which is 1.7% in previous quarter’s constant currency rates, we are lowering our revenue guidance. But we are continuing to be very confident about the direction that we have in both the renewal of all our existing services which have showed a significant momentum as well as in particular in the new areas where our new offerings, for example, MANA, which we just launched it this quarter and we have already seen the first clients purchase it and already started to become successful with it. So that is something that we are extraordinarily happy about.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Chandra

 

Chandra here from ET Now. I have questions for all three of you, so I will just go one-by-one. Vishal, you sound pretty subdued compared to the optimism that you radiated in the last four quarters. I do not know if it is a sign of things to come. But just want to start by asking you, what has changed so dramatically in three months? Usually, we see companies lowering guidance or going back on their stated guidance perhaps two or three quarters into a financial year. So why did the management have such poor visibility into just one quarter and how you sort of going to assure shareholders that your visibility for the next quarter is not so bad and you will deliver on your stated number? Pravin, you flagged off some of the headwinds mid quarter, you said that there will be some bump-ups volatility because of weakness in Energy and Insurance. Are these the problem verticals? Are there more? Will they continue? Ranga, the deal growth has been very robust, but it is not getting reflected in terms of the revenue growth. So, is pricing again under a lot of pressure and is it only going to get worse because everybody is talking about commoditization of existing businesses, if you can just give us some color on that?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

I do not know about being subdued. As I said, I keep a long-term view on things when times are good as well as when times are not so good. I am actually extremely encouraged. I was in Bangalore for several weeks, meeting with the teams and so forth. I am actually quite excited about how our strategy is being embraced in a massive way both in renewal of our existing services and in the new areas that we have launched how we have started to rethink our client engagement with Design Thinking in a very pervasive way which is now reflecting in a consistent large deal win rates. Look, at the beginning of the quarter as we were ending the previous year, we did not anticipate the slowdown in the discretionary parts, in particular in Consulting this was certainly something that we did not expect at the beginning of the quarter and also some of the large deals that we had won in the previous quarter we won close to $750 mn of large deals. So we expected that those projects will ramp up and so forth. That ramp up has been slower than we anticipated. Couple of the very large deals that we won started towards the end of the quarter and so forth. So as we look ahead to the rest of the year, barring the fact that we had a couple of the slowdowns in a couple of parts of our business, all the parts of our strategy are actually functioning, are firing on almost all of the cylinders. So I am really excited and obviously we have to give our guidance to the market based on what we see and looking at the overall situation… Brexit just happened, so far Brexit has had no impact on us, but as we look ahead to the future, clearly, this is something that many banks are worried about and so forth. It creates this opportunity for us in the medium to long-term. But in the near-term, we do not know how this will play out and so forth. So given the visibility, we lowered our guidance by one point which is not that much and obviously our team is committed to working on it and ensuring that we deliver strong performance, but we have to guide the market based on what we see and this is what we see presently.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Pravin Rao

 

From a vertical perspective, we saw good growth in Retail and CPG about 5.5% growth. We saw very good growth in Telecom, Banking and Manufacturing was good. Banking if you ignore Finacle was 2.5% growth, Insurance actually did well. The two areas where we did not do well – one was expected which was Energy which degrew. Life Sciences was a bit of a surprise for us, we did not anticipate in the beginning of the quarter. But to some extent, Life Sciences was also massively hit by the slowdown in the discretionary spend that Vishal talked about earlier in the Consulting and Package Implementation and Life Sciences bore the brunt of it. So we hope that it is not a cyclical trend on the Life Sciences thing and it should recover over a period of time. Barring Energy, I think right now we feel fairly confident about rest of the industries.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

I think while there is a lot of focus this quarter on the revenue from the kind of questions, I would also like to highlight the margin part of it. If you look at the operating margin for this quarter, it is at 24.1%. We did reasonably well on margin front. For example, if you look at the Q1, typically we have compensation increases which had an impact of 1.4% and the visa charges is about 0.8%, but we were able to offset all that and maintain the operating margin at the same level as Q1 of last year through cost optimization measures. Many of the cost optimization measures whether it is utilization going up and the subcontractor expenses as a percentage of revenue coming down, some of those factors continue to happen which is positive. You asked the other question of the deal ramp-up. As you know, this quarter also we won little over $ 800 mn. Now typically when we win a deal, roughly about 7.5% to 10% of the TCV converts back to revenue in the first year. That has been the thumb rule. Now, we expected certain deals that we had won in the earlier quarters to quickly ramp up in Q1 and some of them have actually. A couple of surprises were there which had got pushed back to the subsequent quarters. So that is the thing about the conversion. Coming back to your question on pricing, if you look at in constant currency on year-on-year, the pricing drop has been pretty much 0.2%. So the same kind of pricing drop that we saw has not been significantly different from what we saw earlier. As we have said in the past, this pricing drop we need to offset through operation efficiency and productivity improvements in the company, and some of the trajectory that we have seen on utilizations, subcon expenses, onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue we held at 39.3%, which is same as last year. So some of these things we will offset the price decline. Cash flow generation, it is 33% up as compared to Q1 of last year at little over 450 mn. These are some of the factors which I would like to highlight in addition to the revenue part where the trajectory that we had assumed when we gave is in the right direction.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Sarjeet

 

Vishal, Hi, this is Sarjeet here from Bloomberg Quint. You gave a constant currency guidance of 10.5% to 12%. Can you elaborate on the dollar guidance because it was around 11.8% to 13.8%, what will be that dollar guidance now? Secondly, a color on the kind of deals which are coming from European Union or the Europe as a continent for you, will there be a hold up with respect to those deals coming in? How is the Banking and Financial vertical doing for you in that sense? Pravin, the attrition rate has gone up to 21%. What is the reason from 17-point something to nearly 21% despite a good wage hike which you did I think still the attrition has gone up? For Ranga, the EBIT margins has come down to 24.1%. As you said, you had given a band of EBIT margin of 24% to 26%. Do you think you will remain at the lower end of the band or you have that present potential to go up to 26% by the end of the year?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

The kinds of deals that we have won are all over the world in all geographies and also in Europe. So in terms of the large deal wins, there has not been a slowdown. So we are excited about that. We want to bring in the Renew-New mix to these large deals as we start to execute on these. In terms of the impact of Brexit on Europe and so forth, it is too early to tell. Clearly, some of the banks are in a state of trying to figure out what this means and what are the kinds of changes that they will need to make and what that means for near-term spending and so forth. My sense is that as unfortunate as some of these walls that are getting created because of things like Brexit are, it does create more need for services, more need for integration, more need for ways to interoperate across boundaries and so forth. So, in general, that would mean additional opportunities for revenue growth. But at the same time in the near-term I think that we might see some uncertainty due to this. But it is too early to tell. I want to clearly say that so far we have not seen any impact as a result of Brexit. On the dollar guidance, what we have guided in the beginning of the financial year was 11.5% to 13.5% on FY’16 constant currency and that amounted to 11.8% to 13.8% on March 31. That 11.5% to 13.5% has now become 10.5% to 12% and that correspond the 11.8% to 13.8% that we have guided earlier becomes 10.8% to 12.3% in March 31st currency.

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Just to add to the guidance, if you look at when we guided 11.5% to 13.5%, typically you see the Q1 is an important quarter and every 1% drop in Q1 growth rate typically impacts the overall growth rate by about 1%. So at the same time we have taken into account some of those aspects and the visibility we have at this point in time. If post Q2 performance things change, we will again relook at our guidance, if things pan out to be better than we have expected or it is same as what we see today, that assessment we will make later on.

 

 

Pravin Rao

 

On the attrition front, while the attrition has increased as compared to previous quarters, part of it is to do with the seasonality because typically in quarter one we have higher exit due to higher studies and so on. We also track high performers’ attrition and there actually it has come down. Earlier last quarter it was 13.4% and this quarter it has come down to 11.2%, so we are encouraged by that. Obviously we have to watch out but at this stage we are not unduly concerned. And we continue to do many, many things on the employee front, just today we re-launched our ESOP program after a gap of about 13 years. For starters, we are rewarding about 7,500 of our employees from junior to middle management with restricted stock options and we will extend it to middle management, senior leaders and title holders subsequently. We continue to focus on re-skilling employees, we have revamped our leadership development programs, we have launched many initiatives around career mobility, mentoring and so on. So we continue to focus a lot of employee experience and employee engagement. Even though the attrition has increased, we are not really concerned at this stage, obviously we will continue to watch out from here.

 

Chandra

 

Margins?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Yes. So coming back to the margins, as I said earlier, if you look at Q1 the operating margin of 24.1% is reasonable. Because every Q1 we have two pieces of additional cost as compared to previous quarters which is really the compensation increase which we announced which has impacted the margin by 1.4% and Visa charges 0.8% which we are able to offset through cost optimization measures. The key thing is, to compare it year-on-year basis. For example, Q1 of last year it was 24/0%, now it is 24.1%.

 

Having said that, there are several cost optimization measures whether it is utilization, sub-con expenses which I have talked about earlier. We have been able to reduce, for example, the sub-contractor expenses which hit a peak of 6.3% in Q3, came down to about 5.6% in Q4, now it is 5.4% in Q1. So the trajectory is right. Likewise, utilization consistently over the last five quarters is above 80%, excluding trainees. We further improved it this quarter. We feel there is scope for improvement there as well. Whereas some of the other levers like the onsite effort mix did not show improvement, we want to work on it. Likewise, on the onsite employee cost is 39.3% which is stable as compared to last year.

 

Margin is a derivative of two things, one of course is the cost optimization piece which we will continue to do and which are progressing well and it is also part of the revenue trajectory. Now we had given a medium-term revenue guidance of 24 to 26. We stick to that for the medium-term. The revenue trajectory for the balance three quarters, we need to watch. Keeping in view whatever we have given the revenue trajectory, at this point in time we are looking at comfortably 24% to 25% margins in the short-term

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Participant

 

Sir, what is the reason for declined growth in India its declined by 7.6% quarter-on-quarter?

 

Pravin Rao

 

In India it is a very small percentage of our business and we typically execute system integration project. Some time some projects end and so that consequently result in decline in revenue. So in India, given the small base and the nature of projects that we execute, we continue to expect volatility quarter-on-quarter. I don’t think we should read too much into the India unit performance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Adith Charlie

 

Adith Charlie from CNBC TV18. Just a couple of quick questions. In terms of the projects not ramping up in Q1, could you give us some sense on where are these projects in terms of geographies and verticals? Secondly, I believe that the Mana platform head has moved on, have you identified a replacement? And thirdly, Vishal, your previous employer SAP recently said that Brexit could also be an opportunity in terms of the kind of projects that will come up on the governance side on integration, on new systems. Would you share that optimism?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Yes, I do share that optimism. As I said earlier, it is unfortunate that this Brexit kind of a thing means that more walls get created between organizations, institutions and societies. But nonetheless when there are more walls then there is more opportunity for integration, for interoperability and transparency across the boundaries and so forth. So this would mean more business over time. Nonetheless, in the near-term people are still trying to figure out what this means and so there could be some uncertainty. Mana platform head has not left, Mana platform head is Navin. Samson has left, he was the head of our Cloud and Infrastructure Services. He used to run also the Mana Implementation Services, so he was a long-term employee of Infosys and we wish him well but the Mana team and the Mana platform is very much within the Company.

 

Adith Charlie

 

Also on the ramp up.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Yes, the ramp ups were across geographies. One large deal that we had won in Healthcare area in North America started a little bit later than we expected and one in Europe in the financial areas started a little bit later than we expected. As well as, again in the Lifesciences area some of the consulting projects were impacted by unanticipated discretionary spending related areas and so forth. So that is basically what happened.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Chandra

 

Hi, Chandra again. Just final couple of questions. Vishal, what does this do to your 2020 aspirational target? I know it is an aspirational target, but would you need to reset that in terms of revenues or even on the margins front because a 5% uptick in three years look challenging? And also Ranga, just wanted to clarify again, you are saying the margin band will be 24% to 25% instead of 24% to 26%, if you can just clarify over that, Vishal?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

So in terms of the 2020 ambition, this does not do anything to it, that is our aspiration. I believe that is the right direction, right aspiration for the company to have. As I have always said, that is not a goal. If we are able to execute and continue to execute and bring to scale the kinds of changes that we are doing, then this will be a consequence of the work that we do and will look back on it with great success. We are on that trajectory. I think if you look at revenue per employee overall for the company, that has gone up slightly and I think that is a direct result of on one hand the high margin non-linear growth that we see in the new software areas, as well as better utilization and deployment of zero bench for example, which is our initiative to more or less eliminate the notion of a bench in our industry which has now touched close to 100% of the folks on the bench, 99.5% of people on the bench have performed at least one job that is on our zero bench market. I am extraordinarily encouraged that, I think you start to see that in the productivity improvements. For the first time in a few quarters we have been able to decline that trend and revenue per employee has started to go up and our aspiration continues to be $80,000. So the 2020 aspiration is still very much what it is and one 90-day cycle does not hold us back on growing after that. Ranga, on the margins?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Yes. So as I said earlier in the margins, our medium-term band continues for the medium term 24% to 26%. If you look at this quarter, we are 24.1% and it is same level as last year's Q1. Q1 always has typical compensation hikes and Visa charges - compensation hike impacted 1.4% and visa also had an impact but we were able to kind of offset through the cost optimization measures that I talked about on the sub-con expenses, on the utilization improvement and the onsite role ratio and so on. Now every year in Q1, this is the impact and during the balance year some of these impacts get recovered. Now if you look at the margin, the question that you asked for the short-term margin guidance, margin is a combination of both revenue trajectory as well as the cost optimization. I believe that cost optimization parameters are moving in the right direction. We will continue to push those peddles and the levers which I talked about, the utilizations, sub-con expenses, onsite effort mix, onsite role ratio and so on. Now given the revenue trajectory that we foresee at this point in time for the balance three quarters, short-term band range for the operating margin is 24% to 25%. Our medium-term we still reiterate 24% to 26%. Short-term, we will see how the Q2 really pans out. So for the short-term we will reiterate 24% to 25%.

 

Chandra

 

Short term is three quarters?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Short-term is something we have to see how the next couple of quarters pan out.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

For FY 17, we are keeping it at 24% to 26%. Thank you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Mohit Joshi

 

FSI grew over 2.5% on a reported basis. I think with the exception of some small sub segments like capital markets or like broker dealers, overall demand remains strong. If you look at the large deals as well, a portion of the large deals came from the financial services sector and some of these are very interesting deals. So for instance, we did a large consolidation deal with an asset manager, we did a large deal with an Australian bank to build out their payments platform. So BFSI overall performance in the quarter was strong. Overall, as Vishal mentioned, our story of software plus services, and this is really resonating with our clients. The entire story around artificial intelligence, automation and digital is really resonating with our clients.

 

On the Brexit thing, I think as both Vishal and Ranga mentioned, it is too early to tell. There are some opportunities coming out of Brexit because there could be restructuring for some clients, there is going to be some remediation work that will need to be done. On the other hand, there are some concerns around what it will mean for the spend, what it will mean for decision making, but really too early to tell.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Participant

 

My question was with respect to the Brexit question, I know there will be a lot of opportunities opening in companies like Infosys, but will it come after a lull or it will be a constant thing? Because decision making may get deferred until definite agreements coming into play between UK and European Union and till then the decision making will not happen, right. So will there be a dip in that before it actually picks up?

 

Mohit Joshi

 

That is absolutely a possibility. But what we are saying is as of now we are not seeing that impact. The other thing to understand is that technology is really such a critical component of banking, it is such a critical component that most of our clients, and indeed most banks across the world are extremely focused on it. To really cut off technology spending would really choke off a huge portion of their strategic ambitions. While it is certainly a possibility, the decision making may slow or some budgets may get cut, equally there is an opportunity for growth on account of the remediation, planning, at least that will need to start if they are looking to move certain businesses out of the UK into other parts of Europe. If they are looking at this as an overall opportunity to renew and refresh the systems, that equally is a possibility.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Rukmini Rao

 

Hi, this is Rukmini Rao from CNBC TV18. Sandeep, want to understand from you, given the election year in the US, in terms of spending over there, what is it looking like and what are you hearing from clients, especially from the US? And also, Ravi, in terms of the initiatives in the delivery that have been taking place, want to understand from you how have that been paying off currently and also in terms of a long-term growth plan that you have for the delivery, what is that like? Thank you.

 

Sandeep Dadlani

 

Thanks, Rukmini. You see, we have seen so many election cycles in America over the years and every time there is an election cycle there is some rhetoric. Sometimes there is a louder rhetoric depending on the candidates in fray, sometime there is a smaller rhetoric. We are not seeing any impact to business because of this. We are obviously watching legislation very carefully but so far we don’t see any impact to business. Now what we are doing proactively to ensure that the business model is sustainable, to ensure sustainable growth is, one is, we are leveraging the latest disruptions in technology to start taking care of the same delivery cycles without having too much onsite presence. Second thing is, ultimately we believe that local hiring in each country we operate in is important, that we are focusing on. And thirdly, we have to work through industry bodies, NASSCOM and the likes to articulate the value of our proposition very well even in these changing times to different economies we operate in. So these three things we can do proactively. The rest is something to wait and watch for. So far we think this is election rhetoric and common sense will prevail always.

 

Ravi Kumar S.

 

So coming to the delivery initiatives, you have actually seen the revenue numbers for the quarter which Ranga, Pravin and Vishal spoke about, on core IT services we grew by 3.6% and some of our service lines did extremely well. So the renewal of services has been on a good track. Application Development did around 7%, our Infrastructure Services did 5.9%, Engineering Services did 5%. So we have a very healthy core IT services. Our margins stood up you have seen that 24.1% on the back of high utilization, utilization went up from 80.1% to 80.5%. We have a very good initiative around building utilization you’ve heard about zero bench. We have almost 20,000+ jobs, 40,000 people are applying for it, 180,000 applications. We have stream line that through a set of themes which are monetizable in nature our zero distance initiative. I think it’s one of the most path breaking grass root invocation initiative in any corporate I have ever seen. We roughly have 111,000 applications on it, zero distance templates on it, quite a few number of them on client conversations; 3,000+ prototypes on it. We have started monetizing value out of it, so that has actually taken a very good trajectory. We are seeing extremely good traction on specific campaigns; in mainframe modernization we got massive upswing with our clients. We have got a very good opportunity with the ability to take new services and bundle it with the renewal of old services. In fact, a lot of large contracts we are looking at cost take outs using our AI platform. So that is actually playing very well, we are baking in software into a services in line with our strategy, that is actually moving well. So overall I see a very-very positive trajectory. Our revenue per employee has gone up from $50.7 thousand to $50.9 thousand that’s a good swing upwards. So overall, every service line has created reasonably good renewal of services to create an activeness with our clients to pick it up. So we are seeing good traction on core IT services.

Yes. To supplement what Ravi was saying, I think we have always been known as a very efficient execution machine and thanks to a lot of the efforts that have happened in grass roots innovation led by Vishal and Ravi in terms of ‘Zero Distance’, the feedback from all of our clients was about our ability to come up with new ideas, the levels of engagement and passion that they are seeing from our development teams and the value that we can bring to their businesses; I think is significantly amplified thanks to all the efforts that Vishal and Ravi and the entire delivery organization has been putting in.

Hi, Chandra from ET NOW. Question each for Sandeep, Ravi and Mohit. Sandeep, Pravin had some encouraging things to say about how retail has been performing but it has been pretty volatile because one quarter it has done well, one quarter it has not. How much of sentiment Brexit going to have on this going forward? Ravi, you are really driving initiatives as far as ‘Zero Distance’, delivery is concerned and a lot of the margin contribution is now coming from these optimization initiatives because revenue growth has been lagging. So what else will you be really doing to push the pedal on that. And finally, Mohit BFS also, has grown pretty well. What kind of opportunity does Blockchain really present for you going forward, I understand you already have a platform there but opportunities here going forward? Thank you.

 

Sandeep Dadlani

 

Thanks, Chandra. So you are right retail has been volatile because as an industry fundamentally, Retail is disrupted by call it ‘Amazonfication’ of retail or the digital disruption. For the last few months, I think a lot of brick-and-mortar retailers have figured out ways to adapt very strongly to their online and omni-channel strategies. May and June US retail sales have been quite solid; while not dramatically growing, they have been very solid. We have focused on driving their omni-channel strategy strongly and driving efficiencies through AI, Big Data, etc., and you can see that Retail &CPG has been the fastest growing vertical quarter this quarter at 5.5%+. We expect that our focus and investments to continue in this area. Now Brexit is interesting for retail. It is too early to tell but if you look at the statistics there are 500 retailers who sell online stuff in the US. 212 of them actually export things to the UK when a UK consumer order something online. Now with Brexit there is a no implication to U.S. exporting to UK per se. However if consumer sentiments suffer in the UK or if there are recessionary reasons that come in the UK then US retail sales start getting effected. We are trying to wait and watch to see how online sales of US retailers will get affected because of Brexit over the coming months.

I would now like to pass it on to Dr. Sikka.

  

 

 

  

Vishal Sikka

 

Thank you so much, Sandeep. Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Everyone and Thanks for joining us today as we report the results of our Q1 of Fiscal ‘17.

 

To characterize this quarter, we had some unexpected headwinds that resulted in lower than expected revenue growth in this quarter. Yet at the same time we continue to make strong strides in the execution of our strategy. We started this year on the momentum from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 which was one of the best fourth quarters we had in recent years. We ended the first quarter of this year with revenue of $2.501 bn or Rs.16,782 crores. This represents a growth of 2.2% in US dollar reported terms, 1.4% in Indian rupee reported terms and 1.7% in quarter-on-quarter constant currency. Volumes grew by 2.2%; operating margin for the quarter was at 24.1%, largely impacted due to typical employee and visa related cost of the first quarter but also supported by improvement in utilization and reduced spending on sub-contractor services.

 

The softness in top line growth was primarily on account of unanticipated headwinds in discretionary spending in Consulting Services and Package Implementations as well as slower project ramp ups and large deals that we had won in earlier quarters. This resulted in lower revenue from some client engagements especially in our Life Sciences, Energy and Utilities portfolios. The revenue of our India and Finacle units declined slightly as well, all of which impacted our revenue for the quarter.

 

On a positive side, Telecom reported 11.4% sequential growth, Manufacturing 2.9%, Retail and CPG reported 5.5% growth and Transportation and Logistics reported 9.3% growth, all well above the company’s average for the quarter.

 

As a result of our focused effort on expanding strategic client relationships, our top-10 clients grew by 3.9% quarter-on-quarter and our top-25 clients grew 4.4% quarter-on-quarter. The number of clients in the 100 mn revenue bracket increased from 14 to 17. We have more work to do in growing the next tier of clients and this will continue to be a focus area for us going forward. We also added 95 new clients during the quarter.

 

Our headcount stands at 197,050 people as of June 30, 2016. While attrition was higher at 15.8%, the more important metric for us is high performer attrition which improved by more than 200 basis points. Revenue per employee showed a slight uptick from the previous quarter and was $50,897 for the quarter. Of course, we want this to be on a much higher trajectory going forward and this is where Automation and Innovation will play a key role.

 

Despite a challenging quarter we made many positive strides in the execution of our strategy of ‘Renew’ and ‘New’ working in parallel built on a foundation of culture. This is evident in the growth of renewed traditional services in large deal wins in top account growth, gathering momentum of our new services, the early stages of monetizing key initiatives such as ‘Zero Distance’, the number of FTEs that we have saved due to Automation, the increased level of employee engagement and the overall changing perception of Infosys from a supplier to strategic partner and more. Revenue per employee is also moving in the right direction and various operational efficiencies are starting to yield results.

 

We won $809 mn of TCV in large deals during the quarter, not including a frame agreement with a large financial services firm. These large deals give us better medium-term predictability though initial revenue from these deals maybe small as projects start to ramp up. Most importantly, these engagements give us access to a broader canvas of client operations that we can apply our software in automation, reduction of complexity and bringing together fragmented knowledge or data or understanding dependency across systems and so forth. This remains an important metric for us.

 

Let me talk about some of these business elements in a little bit more detail: In renewing our core business, our traditional services of Applications Development and Maintenance, Infrastructure and Cloud Services, Product Engineering Services and Software Testing grew above the company average, aided by Automation and Innovation. Our ‘Zero Distance’ Program to bring innovation to every project now covers more than 95% of all our projects and we are seeing this program move beyond ideas and start to monetize. I believe this initiative has enabled us to change the perception of our company on the ground with our clients, from a supplier to a strategic partner as one of our key clients recently described to me; a partner that strives to be a company of innovators working on behalf of our clients.

 

Our utilization improved 40 basis points to 80.5% and subcontractor spending reduced to 5.4% of revenue from the highs of earlier quarters. Leveraging our automation Solutions, we saved approximately 2,150 full time equivalent worth of effort across service lines, primarily in Application Maintenance, Package System Maintenance, BPO and Infrastructure Management. We are pushing the pedal on our cost optimization programs and Ranga will provide more color to you on this in his remarks.

 

‘Zero Bench’, our initiative to engage employees that are between projects on value creating assignments has now covered nearly the entire bench with more than 20,000 jobs created in almost one year since it has been launched. We are now taking this beyond our traditional delivery organization to include Consulting and BPO as well.

 

In the ‘New’ areas, I am very excited about the launch of Infosys Mana at the end of April as it brings to life something that I have been working on for a very long time; bringing purposeful AI to the Enterprise to help continuously renovate enterprise business processes. Mana is a knowledge-based AI platform capturing the fragmented knowledge in people and in long-lived systems and bringing this together with data and machine learning to drive automation. We are encouraged by the interest shown from clients across industries with a steadily increasing pipeline of opportunities and our first Mana wins and first successes already with Johnson Controls, Syngenta and others, give us great room to be excited.

 

Infosys Information Platform continues to gain traction. We have more than 227 engagements to-date. Many of them are strategic in nature, including our work with an electronic payment client on transforming their core processing platform and enabling them to take advantage of innovation in Internet of Things, AI, Machine Learning, Big Data and other area. We are already seeing customers benefiting from our investments in next-generation technologies such as Waterline and Trifacta. We have already integrated our IIP with Waterline and have customers such as Harley-Davidson using it. Going forward, we will bring IIP into the Mana portfolio, branding it as Mana for data. I believe this will enable us to tell a much more holistic and simpler story around the sophisticated things that Mana can do for our clients.

 

Skava, our Digital Cloud Platform had a great quarter. We continue to see the strong applicability of Skava in many industries including Financial Services and Insurance and of course in Retail. Nectar India which launched in India this week is built on the Skava platform.

 

The EdgeVerve business continued strong momentum with 16 wins and 21 Go Lives for both the Finacle and Edge suite of solutions across markets.

 

In bringing Design Thinking to our clients, we made significant progress over the last quarter to proactively drive new business transformation programs for our clients. We are working with the Hershey company on key transformational initiatives including their SAP implementation, their sales and digital initiatives as well as on their overall strategy to become an insights-driven company. We have many such examples and this to me is a truly exciting area where we continue to see significant potential.

 

On investments and ecosystem, in the first quarter, we expanded our relationship with Microsoft in Product Development and in Legacy Modernization, announced a strategic collaboration with Amazon Web Services to help clients transition from Mainframe and Legacy Systems to modern Cloud-based platforms and partnered with Kuka on Industry 4.0. We also announced an investment in Trifacta which develops software for data management and data wrangling.

 

On our culture of learning and education, we have now trained nearly 100,000 people in Design Thinking in our effort to empower every Infoscions to be an innovator and to help our client find the most important problems for them to solve. We continue to revamp our curriculum, introducing new ways of learning, leveraging our Infosys Learning Platform and other tools. Employee engagement continues to be high and this week we are rolling out the first phase of our equity program enabling employees to share in the successes and in the ownership of our performance.

 

Beyond our businesses and ourselves, we continue to bring a great passion and care to the communities around us. In India, the Infosys Foundation among various programs provided several grant this quarter towards education and healthcare. Some of these include grants to the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research in Pune and Bangalore Life Sciences cluster. In the United States, the Infosys Foundation USA continued its mission of providing equal access to computer science and maker education to underrepresented communities. Revangelize the Maker Movement, the foundation launch “@WhyIMake Social Campaign” at the June Nation of Makers Event at the White House as well as announced the winners of the spring cycle of the Infy Maker Award. At Crossroad 2016, the Foundation’s Annual Thought Leadership Conference, the foundation announced CS for all community giving program in partnership with the National Science Foundation and DonorsChoose.org.

 

In closing, as I said earlier, we had a challenging first quarter. At the same time, our long-term vision is stronger and more relevant than ever, as we see the promising signs of significant value that is possible with the software-led transformation of the services industry in these early successes along. Because of this, I take a balanced view on our overall performance in this quarter.

 

On Brexit, there are challenges for a company such as Infosys in this uncertainty and yet there is a great opportunity for technology and services. Technology has a key role to play to work across the walled gardens, to be the unifier through a time of disruption. It is still too early for our clients or for us to specifically determine the impact of Brexit other than possibly the cautiousness that comes with the short-term uncertainty. Clients are obviously cautious in embarking on new programs at this time, especially in Financial Services.

 

Given the weaker than expected Q1 revenue growth, our current visibility for Q2 and the remainder of the year and somewhat broader uncertainty and caution in the macro environment, we are lowering our full year fiscal ’17 growth estimate to 10.5% to 12% in constant currency. We had guided in April that our revenue growth in fiscal ’17 would be in the range of 11.5% to 13.5% in constant currency terms. As always, depending on our performance and the outlook at the end of Q2, we will provide you an update during the earnings report in October of this year.

 

Let me now hand it over to Ranga for his comments before we take your questions. Thank you.

 

 

 

 

  

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

Thank you, Vishal. Hello Everyone. This is Ranga here.

 

Let me first start with Q1 revenue performance. Our revenues in Q1 were Rs.16,782 crores, this is a growth of 1.4% sequentially in rupee terms. On year-on-year basis when compared to Q1’16 our Q1’17 revenues have grown by 16.9% in rupee terms. In dollar terms, revenues grew sequentially in Q1 by 2.2% on reported currency basis and 1.7% in constant currency basis. On yearly basis, when compared to Q1’16, revenues have grown 10.9% in reported dollar terms and 12.1% in constant currency terms. Volumes grew by 2.2% during the quarter as compared to 2.4% in Q4 of FY16. On quarter-to-quarter basis onsite volume grew by 3.3% and offshore volume grew by 1.8%. Realization for the quarter declined 0.3% on reported basis and 0.7% in constant currency. However, on a year-on-year basis, realization declined in constant currency terms by 0.2%.

 

As Vishal mentioned earlier, we continue to focus on optimizing our operating efficiency levers. These levers are utilization, subcontractor cost as a percentage of revenue, onsite mix per cent and onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue. Let me take a couple of moments to talk about their trajectory during this quarter. Let me first talk about utilization. Our utilization excluding trainees improved during the quarter and it increased by 40 basis points to 80.5%. Similarly, utilization including trainees went up to 76.5%. As you would recall, over the last five quarters, utilization excluding trainees has been consistently above 80% and we will continue to focus on further improvement.

 

Our subcontracting expenses as a percentage of revenue improved further during the quarter. You would recall that it was at a high level of 6.3% of revenue in Q3, it reduced to 5.6% in Q4 due to cost optimization measures and during the quarter it has further reduced to 5.4%. While some of the subcontractor cost is inevitable to address the business needs, we are further strengthening our talent planning to optimize the need for subcontractors.

 

Our onsite mix increased to 29.9% during the quarter and we need to focus on bringing this down in a gradual manner and are putting our efforts in this direction. Onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue is 39.3%, primarily on account of compensation increase during the quarter. As you know in Q1, we announce annual compensation increase and we also have visa cost. On a comparable basis to Q1FY’16, employee cost as a percentage of revenue has remained flat at 39.2%. Typically, in Q1, margins are impacted on account of visa and compensation as I mentioned earlier.

 

The operating margin for the quarter was 24.1%, a decrease of 140 basis points during the quarter. Operating margin in Q4 was 25.5%. Margins for the quarter decreased 140 basis points due to wage hikes and additional 80 basis points on account of visa cost. This was partially offset by 80 basis points due to additional cost optimization measures and variable pay reduction.

 

Our emphasis on healthy operating cash flow generation continued in the quarter. Operating cash flow generation was very strong during the quarter. We generated operating cash flow of Rs.3,039 crores in Q1 as compared to Rs.2,202 crores in last year same quarter. Operating cash flow was up 31% as compared to Q1 of last year. Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30 was Rs.33,212 crores as compared to Rs.34,468 crores last quarter. This is primarily on account of the dividend payment of Rs.3,256 crores during the quarter. Our collections were healthy during the quarter and DSO for the quarter was 66-days as compared to 68-days in Q1 of last year.

 

Coming to Employee Metrics, at the group level we added 13,268 gross employees with a net addition of 3,006 employees. The quarterly annualized attrition on a standalone basis has increased to 15.8% from 12.6% last quarter. At the group level the annualized attrition is 21% as compared to 17.3% last quarter.

 

Q1 saw huge volatility in currency especially in the backdrop of Brexit. We manage to navigate the volatility effectively. As you know, on a period end basis, USD appreciated by 6.6% against British Pound 2.1% against Euro and 3.1% against Australian Dollar. Our hedge position as of June 30th was $976 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 7.8% this quarter as compared to 8% last quarter which is a reflection of softening interest rates in India. We expect the yield in FY’17 to be approximately 7.5% as compared to 8.6% in FY’16.

 

The Effective Tax Rate for the quarter was 28.4%. Full year Effective Tax Rate projection is expected to be around 29%. Our net margins during the quarter were 20.5% as compared to 21.1% in Q1’16. Our EPS for the quarter was Rs.15.03 as compared to Rs.13.26 in Q1’16. EPS grew 13.4% on year-on-year basis and was down 4.5% on a sequential basis.

 

During the quarter, number of $100 mn plus clients increased to 17 from 14 clients in the previous quarter. Active clients now stands at 1,126 as compared to 1,092 last quarter.

 

Coming to Segment Performance: Amongst verticals, FSI grew 2.2%, Manufacturing grew 2.9%, RCL grew 1%, Energy, Communications and Services grew by 3.1%.

 

In geographical terms, North America grew by 2.5%, Europe by 0.6%, Rest of the World 6.9% and India the revenues declined 7.6% during the quarter on a very small base.

 

Coming to Margins, we have always said that in the medium-term, our margin expectation is in the range of 24% to 26%. If you look at this quarter we had operating margin of 24.1%, almost at the same level of Q1 of last year. During the quarter we were able to offset to some extent the effect of compensation increase and visa cost through cost optimization. As I mentioned earlier, some of our cost efficiency levers are improving and we will continue to further optimize them in the coming quarters. Therefore, we continue to expect our medium-term margin range to be 24% to 26%.

 

With that we will open the floor for Questions.

Thank you very much, sir. Ladies and Gentlemen, we will now begin the Question-and-Answer Session. We take the first question from the line of Arvind Ramnani from Pacific Crest. Please go ahead.

 

Arvind Ramnani

 

Hi. I just wanted to get a better sense of how the mechanics of your pricing decline works and if you can quantify your pricing decline over the past one year and over the past two years?

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

What is comparable is really the year-on-year basis because quarter-to-quarter there will be volatility because of certain project shifts and how the milestones move between quarters. Year-on-year basis, on a constant currency basis it was 0.2% and in reported basis it is 1.3%. If we step back and look at FY’16, year-on-year over FY’15 the pricing decline was about 1.1% in constant currency. We do not see significant change from the current levels. While we continue to see pricing pressure in the commoditized business, we have always said that we need to offset these pricing declines through better internal cost efficiency and productivity metrics. So to answer your question, on year-on-year basis for the Q1 is 0.2%.

 

 

 

 

  

Arvind Ramnani

 

In terms of mechanics of this, are these basically rate card decline or is it some of the function mix, because what I am trying to get to you is like if we are seeing currency decline of a particular magnitude, you have a lot of ongoing projects, most of your projects are ongoing where pricing is already set. So if we are seeing a pricing decline of X per cent, can we infer that the kind of new project sign-ups, renewal are actually being priced at a magnitude more than just X per cent?

 

Pravin Rao

 

This is Pravin here. We do not find too much pressure on the rate card per se for existing clients. Clients are not coming back in between and asking for any rate card cuts or anything. But almost every deal of any reasonable size is bid out in a competitive way and there clients are typically expecting productivity improvements baked into the deal. So that is where we are finding pricing pressures and this is primarily in the legacy side or the IT and operations side of the business like ADM, Infrastructure Management, IVS and so on. So most of the pricing decline is reflective of the deals that we win during the year where we have to go aggressive, there is a clear expectation. Right now we have lot of levers on the operational side to try to mitigate that but in the long-term the efforts that we are putting in terms of automation and other things will help mitigate this. But that will take some time to kick in. In the interim, our pricing particularly in the business and IT operations side of the business will continue to be under pressure.

 

 

 

 

  

Arvind Ramnani

 

This quarter, whether a few specific client project ramps that caused the softness or do you think it was an overall situation across, what I am trying to get to is there is going to be more like a quarter shift kind of current quarter will probably be a lot more robust because of some project delays?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

It was generally in the Life Sciences area and generally in Consulting where we saw the big unanticipated decline, mostly in the discretionary areas. Some projects that were ending, some projects were slower to ramp up than what we expected from the large deals that we had won. It just happened to be the case that Life Sciences took a brunt of that. Some other areas like Finacle and India had small declines as well but the big part of it was in the Consulting and Package Implementation area where we saw a decline, we did not anticipate. Other than that, as you can see everything else had good performance. Going forward obviously we will keep a very close watch on this and focus on these two areas in particular among others. However, given the overall situation that we see, we have lowered the guidance by one point. But I want to reiterate that I continue to be confident and I am quite excited about the adoption that we have seen simultaneously in the new areas and also in the success in our overall delivery organization, our core machine, our core engine based on its renewal that we have already seen the signs of better operations.

 

 

 

 

  

Arvind Ramnani

 

Do you expect any impact from Brexit is a positive or negative in the next couple of quarters?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Brexit is an example of some of these walls starting to show up across institutions which is unfortunate but actually it is an opportunity for a company like us over time. Why it is an opportunity? Because whenever walled gardens like this start to show up, then there is more need for transparency across the walls, there is more need for interoperability and integration and things of this nature, regulatory processes and so forth. I do see that assuming that this happens that over time this will create opportunities for us. But in the near-term, as you have seen there is a tremendous kind of sense of volatility and uncertainly in many industries, especially in the Financial Services. And so we are being cautious about it, but I do see this as an opportunity overtime. Mohit, you want to add something to that?

 

Mohit Joshi

 

Yes, Vishal. So just to basically reiterate what Vishal was saying, we have not seen any immediate impact. There is a degree of uncertainty and volatility, but in the long run with the restructuring, with the work that will need to be done around remediation of the platforms, this could be a long-term opportunity. I think some banks may also see this an opportunity to refresh their overall system landscape and that is a potential long-term opportunity as well. In short, we are not seeing any immediate impact, there is uncertainty and volatility and in the long run we hope that this will give us an opportunity. As technology becomes really central to most banks, we don’t feel that Brexit or no Brexit banks can afford to slowdown or delay their digital or their industrialization agendas.

 

Arvind Ramnani

 

To the press you mentioned 24% to 25% kind of margins in the short-term, is that for Q2 or for all of fiscal 2017?

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

Let me again reiterate, our margin guidance for the year is 24% to 26%, there is absolutely no change in that. What we have seen is 24.1% for the current quarter is same level as last year and we are able to offset to some extent the comp increase and visa hike impact in the margins through cost optimization levers. As I said, several cost optimization levers, whether it is sub-con expenses as a percentage of revenue or utilization are moving in the right direction. We reiterate our margin guidance for the year at 24% to 26%.

We take the next question from the line of Sandeep Muthangi from IIFL. Please go ahead.

 

Sandeep Muthangi

 

I have a question on the guidance. Vishal, you mentioned that you are seeing the guidance has been cut a bit, but even at the lower end it is still pretty strong and it still implies a significant acceleration from what you have delivered in the quarter. I just want to get some sense in to what is leading to this confidence on growth accelerating? Is it some of these deals you are saying ramping up going forward or things got delayed in the quarter which will pickup in the next couple of quarters, what is the confidence behind the strength and the guidance?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

There are three parts to that, Sandeep. The first one is that, as you know we have won several large deals in the last few quarters. Last quarter we were at $ 757 mn, this quarter we have just crossed $ 800 mn. So these will ramp up. The ramp up in the previous quarter has been little bit slower than we expected, but we do expect that these projects will start to ramp up and many of these are already ramping up so that is one dimension to that. One very exciting dimension which is under Ravi's leadership, our delivery organization is actually firing on all cylinders and that is led by bringing Design Thinking into our delivery organization in a massive way. We just crossed 100,000 people who have been trained on Design Thinking. It is based on ‘Zero Distance’ which is our initiative to bring innovation into every project. And basically under Ravi's leadership we have close to 100% of the project with ‘Zero Distance’, we have had more than 5,000 conversations with clients around ‘Zero Distance’ innovation ideas. The third part is the benefits that we are bringing because of automation. So you already see the signs of this in the improved utilization and so forth. So that is the second thing that gives me confidence. And the third one is that the new services, which perhaps is the most exciting, that the new services, the new seeds that we have planted are starting to grow dramatically under Sandeep Dadlani's leadership. This is something that we are really excited about, we just launched Mana on the 27th of April and it has already seen not only wins with clients but also the early successes with clients and in our press release today we had a couple of quotes from major companies who have already started to see some benefits from this. Skava had a great quarter. Edge continues to roll and even though Finacle declined compared to the previous quarter, actually Finacle also had a good quarter. So I am really excited about those three things together.

 

Now Consulting and Packaged Services had this decline and BPO did not grow as well as we expected and the India business had a slight decline. So there are a few pockets, you can think of those as pot holes which are giving us this caution. But generally the big cylinders in the company both on the Renew side and New side are firing very well. So that gives us the confidence as we look ahead to the rest of the year.

 

Sandeep Muthangi

 

And just one more question, on the messaging or communication part of it. Vishal, I guess all of us know that the uncertainty in the business is increasing a bit and things like Brexit only add to the uncertainty. And analysts and investors are used to looking at IT results through a microscope. So these sort of results where there is a gap between what analysts expect and what the delivery is do tend to result in exaggerated stock price movements. Is there something that Infosys can do in terms of addressing special issues like this, do you want to look at some point of time reinstating the guidance, the quarterly guidance or some sort of a mid-quarter communication just to set expectation if you notice something that is way off from what the street is expecting.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

I think that a 90-day cycle and to govern a 200,000 employee company on a 90-day cycle, is hard enough and require micromanaging things in us that anymore precision and fine tuning on that will basically mean that we have no time left for longer term kind of thing. So I feel comfortable and plus it would take away a lot of your excitement in being able to forecasting on a quarterly basis by trying to interpolate and extrapolate things. By the way, if you do want our IIP platform has some extraordinary capabilities for doing those kinds of forecasting and so forth. I also want to take this opportunity to say that myself, Pravin and Ranga, we take this guidance matter very-very seriously and it is not around setting expectation or managing expectations, or ‘under promise and over deliver’ and all these types of things. Basically, our visibility on what we see in the business and we share that with you as we see. We take this responsibility very seriously and I am not in favor of making this anymore fine tuned than it already is. Ranga, perhaps you have something to add?

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

Yes, Vishal. Yes, I fully endorse that. I think coming back to the main question of guidance. Infosys has always believed that the asymmetry of information between what the management knows and the investors know has to be minimal. We do not want to set wrong expectations either ways. When we see certain things positive we want to be positive, and when we don’t see certain things positive we don’t want to give a wrong expectation, even if it means that it hurts us in the short-term. I guess that is core principle that we work on. Consistently the Company always comes every quarter before announcing the results, re-evaluates the visibility that it has. If you recollect, last year in Q3, even with a flat growth we would have met the guidance. We didn’t increase the guidance in Q3 primarily because at that point in time we generally felt that we had certain challenges for Q3 and Q4. But we have overcome those challenges, but at the same time we want to be very upfront with the market in every quarter cycle.

 

Then coming to your second question, why not mid-quarter? Because we have a very unique month-to-month progression of revenues and certain deals and certain progressions have couple of linkages and there are always surprises on a quarter-to-quarter basis. We have consistently said that we will not confuse the market or give a direction which is kind of selective and so on. We have a very disciplined approach. At every quarter just before the announcement of results, we have an honest assessment of visibility and based on what we have done in the quarter we will continue to do that on that basis. At this point in time, as Vishal said, I think yearly guidance is something that we would stick to.

Our next question is from the line of Anantha Narayan from Credit Suisse. Please go ahead.

 

Anantha Narayan

 

So I had a couple of questions. Vishal, firstly, if you look at this weaker than expected 1Q and you have laid out the reasons for that, but how much of it would you attribute to macro factors and how much of it would you attribute to maybe the client mix or the business mix of Infosys?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Anantha, it is all us in this case. It is the client situation coupled with our execution.

 

Anantha Narayan

 

And my second question was on the attrition numbers. After a few quarters where we saw some pretty attractive improvements in attrition, things have slipped again. So what are the reasons you would attribute to that and what steps are you taking as well?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

I think the 15.8% is higher than we wanted to see. It is generally in line with the Q1 attrition numbers that we used to see in the past. There are couple of factors to that. First of all it is higher because at this time of the year the kids go to school and they get admitted to colleges and so forth. So there is a higher attribution due to that. And then also the variable payout and stuff like this happens. We want to continue our focus on that and bring it down further. Also, many of our employees are targets of our competition and that continues to always be an interesting thing where many of our competitors setup camp right outside our campuses to hire our folks with massive pay raises and so forth. But the thing that we have really focused on is through some unique talent management approaches, that are in some sense pioneering ones, where have put in a dedicated focus on preventing the attrition of the higher performers. We launched that towards the middle of the quarter and we were able to actually bring down the high performer attrition by 2 percentage points which is huge. It was something like 13.5% in the quarter before and it came down to 11.5% now and we will continue to really focus on that. So it is a little bit worse than we expected, generally this quarter is like this but this is not something that we are concerned about because in particular we have brought down the high performer attribution significantly. Pravin, you want to add anything to that?

 

Pravin Rao

 

I think you have communicated. If you look at over the last five years, on an average quarter one attrition has always been about 5% more than the Q4 and this is a consistent thing. Obviously we will watch this very closely but at this stage and given what we have seen in the high performance attrition which we have come down significantly. We are confident and we will continue to focus on employee engagement activities. In addition, today after a gap of 13 years we announced employee stock option plan. We have identified about 7,500 people, we are giving them RSUs. These are primarily junior to mid-management people. And we will follow through in subsequent weeks and announce a similar plan for senior management and title holders. Apart from that, we continue to focus on many of the employment engagement activities, focusing on training, re-skilling, leadership development and so on. So while it is higher than what we saw earlier, at this stage we are not too concerned and we will continue to focus on improving employee experience and employee engagement activities.

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

 

Viju George

 

Vishal, I just wanted to probably probe a little bit on your comment on discretionary spending is a bit softer than expected. Apologize if you have answered this, but why do you think this has happened? Presumably it happened towards the end of the quarter and are you building a fair revival of this discretionary spend that is coming back for your guidance to hold?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

I think that in order for our revised guidance to hold, we have taken into account the pattern that we have seen. So I am not so concerned about it. I don’t see that as a big structural kind of a thing. In Q1 in particular what happened was that there were a couple of large deals that we had won in the quarters before, that we had expected that they would ramp up already and in most of the quarter we would get a revenue impact of that which did not happen. One started much slower than we expected and then the other one started towards the end of the quarter and there were other examples like that. In particular, in the Consulting area we saw some projects ending and us not anticipating not being able to renew those and extend those projects and so forth and both of this happen to be in the Lifesciences area. So that is basically what has happened. In Consulting we are working to fix to the extent that the issues were on our side. I am confident that we will be able to fix these. Rajesh Murthy has taken responsibility for our Consulting organization and we are confident that we will be able to get this going. And to the extent that the slow ramp up in the project was reflective of any underlying thing in those clients or in those industries, we have already accounted for that in our revised guidance.

 

Viju George

 

Sure. And one more follow-on, if I may please. It is interesting to see that you have called out some weakness in Consulting and Package Implementation which I presume are more onsite centric, your onsite mix has actually moved up in this quarter. Why has that happened even though the impression is that the business is a little bit more onsite-centric? Thank you.

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Yes, those two are more onsite heavy obviously but the onsite increase that you are seeing is a result of momentum from prior work that was happening, that continues to move forward. So there is of course a huge mass of movement that happens across the organization that impacts for this. Ranga?

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

Just to add, as you know the first stage of ramp up of project typically happens onsite, to some extent that also we saw in this quarter.

 

Viju George

 

Sure. And a third and last question is, are you foreseeing any eventuality from Brexit in terms of are you provided for any allowance of that, any buffers of that in your revised guidance or should anything happen on that front then again we may have to sort of look at this again. Is that some possibility down the road?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Viju, it is too early to say what impact it will have. I mean we have seen some banks decline significantly in their stock price and so forth and it is even a lot of the consultants are making a lot of money trying to explain to people what the nuances of these agreements are and all of that. So far it is too early to tell what is happening as a result of Brexit. Other than that, the longer term more of these walled gardens will end up creating opportunities for us. My sense is that in one more quarter we will have a better idea if there are any near term consequences of this. So that is what we have.

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

 

James Friedman

 

I wanted to ask generally about the waterfall from book-to-bill. What are some of the factors that influence how bookings get recognized in revenue?

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

I assume that you are asking about how much of revenue conversion happens from this TCV. So if you look at, there are three factors I would say. One is of course the nature of the deal for example, between Infrastructure Management deal typically there are transition of efforts in the first phase, from the transition we start shadow support, then it comes to steady state and there are very well established accounting principles that we need to apply from when we can really translate that into revenue. While the project ramp ups can happen in terms of number of people being on the ground, etc., the actual translation to revenue typically depends upon the nature of transmission, nature of shadow support and what are some of the milestones that individual projects have. So Infrastructure Management, the ramp up is slow though it is probably more initially it will be much smaller and it is more back-ended and whereas for something like Application Development and Maintenance project it is more uniform. On a thumb rule basis, typically if you look at the TCV of every $100 mn that we have in a basket of services, roughly about 7.5% to 10% accrues in the first year. So that has been our thumb rule, but it can change the mix of the services can really change. The third factor is really the ramp up part of it. So suppose a particular project is awarded with a TCV of X mn, then sometimes we expect that to start with a quarter gap of one and sometimes the ramp-ups happen much faster. Many times the current vendors have to move out and there is a transition period. So these three factors principally impact the revenue conversion from TCV. But as a thumb rule, given the current basket of services, in the first year typically it is 7.5% to 10%.

 

James Friedman

 

And I just had a housekeeping question if you happen to have it there. I see from the fact sheet the de-growth in Health and Lifesciences, do you have to have that in constant currency?

 

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

Yes, Lifesciences constant currency is (-16%) quarter-to-quarter.

Thank you. Our next question is from the line of Ashwin Mehta from Nomura. Please go ahead.

 

Ashwin Mehta

 

I just wanted to get a sense in terms of the seasonality of growth that you are likely to see this year for achievement of your guidance. Would the seasonality be similar in terms of 2Q being stronger and possibly in the 4% to 6% range, or you would require some heavy lifting at the backend or back half of the year for your guidance to be met?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Ashwin, we have assumed the typical seasonality. But at the same time that is impacted by the ramp up in the large deals that we have signed recently. In the new services there is basically no seasonality. So in the Software and both Software licenses and software subscriptions in the new areas like Mana, Skava and our Edge products, there is no seasonality. So there will be some impact as a result of that, but generally obviously our Delivery and Consulting, these continue to have the usual seasonality.

 

Ashwin Mehta

 

And I had just one book-keeping question, in terms of ESOP charges is there any estimate that you can give in terms of what is the ESOP charge going to be in terms of amount this year or as a percentage of sales what is that you are looking at going forward?

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

Yes, we have already factored in that amount in our 24% to 26% range.

Thank you. Our next question is from the line of Pankaj Kapoor from JM Financial. Please go ahead.

 

Pankaj Kapoor

 

Sorry to persist, but I just had a couple of questions on the guidance. First is the adjustment for the first quarter lower revenues, is that the only thing which has gone into the adjustment in the guidance or are you factoring some incremental headwinds as well?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Pankaj, that is primarily the factor. We look through the root causes of the lower than expected revenue performance and as a result of that we have a lower guidance. If you generally do the math you see that roughly 20 mn or so decline in one particular business, if you project that out over four quarters that amounts to more or less 1%. And a couple of other dimensions as well. Like I said earlier, it was not only this particular area in Consulting but also the slower ramp down and slightly lower performance in India and so forth which does not have that big an impact, these are small, but if you put it altogether that basically brings us to lowering this thing by 1%.

 

Pankaj Kapoor

 

So the slower ramp-up that mentioned in the couple of client situation, so are we back on track there or things are still slow?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

It is too early to tell. We have done many large deals in the last few quarters. It is too early to tell whether it is limited to these two or three clients or if there is more going on here. In one case it is just a progressive slow beginning and so the curve itself is slower than we expected. And in the other one it started later than we expected, but it is going at the normal speed. So whether it is limited to these two or not, we will watch but we don’t expect that there is any massive change because of this.

 

Pankaj Kapoor

 

Obviously there have been a few weeks since Brexit, in their last intervening few weeks have you seen any delayed decision making, at least in the UK or European clients? Although it is too early to call the impact of that, but anything in the decision making cycle if you have seen, especially on the large deals, any impact?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Mohit, can you answer?

 

Mohit Joshi

 

Sure. So look, I don’t think it is anything significant. I just want to add that most of our clients themselves were caught by surprise, they were caught by surprise by the Brexit decision and they are scrambling to figure out next steps. In one client we have seen certain delays, but I would not make a trend out of it as Vishal and Ranga mentioned, it is really too early to tell because most of the banks are absorbing the news and waiting for the announcement on next steps before they start making their strategic decisions.

 

Pankaj Kapoor

 

So is it fair to assume that decision making as of now in the uncertainty is basically on hold till people figure out how things are going to play out? Is it a fair assumption?

 

Mohit Joshi

 

No, I don’t think we are saying that. I think what we are saying is as of now we have not seen any change in decision making patterns with one exception that I mentioned. As of now things have continued as before.

 

Pankaj Kapoor

 

And lastly, Ranga, if you can share the involuntary attrition number, is there a significant jump in that as well, if you can share the numbers quarter-on-quarter that would be helpful. Thanks.

 

Ranganath D Mavinakere

 

There is no significant change in the involuntary numbers. It is in the normal course as has been in the earlier quarters.

Thank you. We have the next question from the line of Sagar Rastogi from Ambit Capital. Please go ahead.

 

Sagar Rastogi

 

Going back to attrition, did you do something different in terms of wage hikes and variable payouts this quarter as compared to the previous year? For example, was there a lot of dispersion between top performers and average performers? Also, you have postponed wage hikes for senior staff by a quarter, do you think that also had an impact on the attrition number?

 

Pravin Rao

 

See, we continue to focus on increasing the differentiation between top performers and bottom performers. So I don’t think the higher attribution numbers you can attribute to what you said. As I said earlier, if you look back over the last five years, on an average the attrition in quarter one is normally 5% more than what we see in quarter four. Particularly if you look at high performance attrition, it has actually come down dramatically from 13.4% to 11.2%. So I don’t think you should give too much meaning to attrition numbers at this stage. Obviously, I mean we will continue to focus on all our employee engagement initiatives and I talked about the stock option plans that we rolled out, announced today. So we are doing many-many things to make sure that we keep the employee motivated and the focus is increasingly more on higher differentiation so that we can reward high performance much more than people who are not performing well.

 

Sagar Rastogi

 

So you are right that typically June is seasonally stronger, but at least from the current levels it appears to be a bit of larger negative surprise. For example, in the March 2015 quarter to June 2015 quarter if you see, the increase in annualized attrition numbers was only 100 basis points which is why…

 

Pravin Rao

 

Last year was an exception, but if you look back over the last five years, on an average it is 5%.

Vishal Sikka

 

Thank you, Sandeep. Good Afternoon, Good Evening and Good Morning everyone and thanks for joining us today as we report the results of Q1 Fiscal ‘17.

 

To characterize the quarter, we had some unexpected headwinds that resulted in lower-than-expected revenue growth in Q1 and at the same time we continue to make strong strides in the execution of our strategy. We started this year on the momentum from the fourth quarter of fiscal ‘16 which was one of the best fourth quarters that we had in recent years. We ended the first quarter of fiscal ’17 with revenue of $2.501 bn or Rs. 16,782 crores. This represents a growth of 2.2% in US dollar reported terms, 1.4% in INR reported terms and 1.7% in quarter-on-quarter constant currency; volumes grew by 2.2%. Operating margin for the quarter was at 24.1%, largely impacted due to typical employee and visa related cost of the first quarter but also supported by improvement in utilization and reduced spending in subcontractor services among other measures that we took.

 

The softness in top line growth was primarily on account of unanticipated headwinds in discretionary spending in Consulting Services and in Package Implementations as well as slower project ramp ups and some large deals that we had won in earlier quarters. This resulted in lower revenue from some client engagements, especially in our Life Sciences, Energy and Utilities portfolios. The revenue of our India and Finacle units declined slightly as well; all of which impacted our revenue for the quarter.

 

On a positive side, Telecom reported 11.4% sequential growth, Manufacturing at 2.9%, Retail and CPG reported 5.5% growth and Transportation and Logistics reported 9.3% sequential growth, all well above the company’s average for the quarter.

 

As a result of our focused efforts on expanding strategic client relationships, our top-10 clients grew by 3.9% on quarter-on-quarter and top-25 clients grew 4.4% quarter-on-quarter. The number of clients in the $100 mn revenue bracket increased from 14 to 17. We have more work to do in growing the next tier of clients and this will be a focus area for us going forward. We have also added 95 new clients for the quarter.

 

Our headcount stands at 197,050 people as of June 30, 2016. While attrition was higher at 15.8%, the more important metric for us is high performer attrition, which improved by more than 200 basis points. Revenue per employee showed a slight uptick from the previous quarter and was $50,897 for the quarter. Of course, we want this to be on a much higher trajectory going forward and this is where Automation and Innovation will continue to play a key role.

 

Despite the challenges this quarter we made many positive strides in the execution of our strategy of ‘Renew’ and ‘New’ built on a culture of education and learning. This is evident in the growth of our renewed traditional services, large deal wins, top account growth, the gathering momentum of our new services, the early stages of monetizing key initiatives such as ‘Zero Distance’, the number of FTEs that we have saved due to Automation, the increased level of employee engagement, the overall changing perception of Infosys from a supplier to a strategic partner and more. Revenue per employee is moving in the right direction and various operational efficiencies are starting to yield results.

 

We won $809 mn of TCV in large deals during the quarter, not including a large framed agreement that we did with a large financial services firm. These large deals give us better medium-term predictability, though initial revenue from these deals maybe small as projects ramp up. Most importantly, these engagements give us access to a broader canvas of client operations that we can apply our software in Automation, in reduction of complexity, bringing together fragmented knowledge or data or understanding dependencies across systems. This remains an important metric for us.

 

Let me now talk about some of these in a little bit more detail: In renewing our core services, our traditional services of Applications Development and Maintenance, Infrastructure and Cloud Services, Product Engineering Services and Software Testing grew above the company average, aided by Automation and Innovation. Our Zero Distance Program to bring innovation to every project now covers more than 95% of all our projects and we are seeing this program move beyond ideas and start to monetize. I believe this initiative has enabled us to change the perception of Infosys on the ground with our clients from a supplier to a strategic partner as one of our key clients recently described to me; a partner that is striving to be a company of innovators.

 

Our utilization improved 40 basis points to 80.5% and subcontractor spending reduced to 5.4% of revenue from the highs of earlier quarters. Leveraging our Automation Solutions, we saved approximately 2,150 people worth of effort across service lines, primarily in Application Maintenance, Package System Maintenance, BPO and Infrastructure Management. We are pushing the pedal on our cost optimization programs and Ranga will provide more color on this in his remarks.

 

Zero Bench - our initiative to engage employees that are between projects on value creating assignments has now covered nearly the entire bench with more than 20,000 jobs created in almost one year since it was launched. We are now taking this beyond our traditional delivery organization also to include Consulting and BPO as well.

 

In the ‘New’ areas, I am very excited about the launch of Infosys Mana at the end of April, as it brings to life something that I have been working on for a very long time, bringing purposeful AI to the enterprise to continuously renovate enterprise business processes. Mana is a knowledge-based AI platform capturing the fragmented knowledge in people and in long-lived systems and bringing this together with Data and Machine Learning to drive Automation. We are encouraged by the interest shown from clients across industries with a steadily increasing pipeline of opportunities and our first Mana wins and first success is already with Johnson Controls, Syngenta and others.

 

Infosys Information Platform continues to gain traction with more than 227 engagements to-date. Many of them strategic in nature, including our work with an electronic payments client on transforming their core processing platform and enabling them to take advantage of innovation in Internet of Things, AI, Machine Learning, Big Data and more. We are already seeing customers benefiting from our investments in next-generation technologies such as Waterline and Trifacta. We have already integrated IIP with Waterline and have customers such as Harley-Davidson using it. Going forward, we are bringing IIP into the Mana portfolio, branded as Mana for data. I believe this will enable us to tell a much more holistic and yet simpler story around the sophisticated things that Mana can do for our clients.

 

Skava, our Digital Cloud Platform, had a great quarter. We continue to see strong applicability in many industries of Skava, including Financial Services and Insurance and of course in Retail. Nectar India which launched in India earlier this week is built on the Skava platform.

 

Our EdgeVerve business continued strong momentum with 16 wins and 21 Go Lives for both the Finacle and Edge suite of solutions across markets.

 

In bringing Design Thinking to our clients, we made significant progress over the last quarter to proactively drive new business transformation programs for our clients. We are working with the Hershey company on key transformational initiatives including their SAP implementation, their sales and digital initiatives as well as their overall strategy to becoming an insights-driven company. We have many such examples and this to me is a truly exciting area where we continue to see significant potential.

 

On Investments and Ecosystem, in the first quarter we expanded our relationship with Microsoft in Product Development and Legacy Modernization. We announced a strategic collaboration with Amazon Web Services to help clients transition from Mainframe and Legacy Systems to a modern Cloud-based platforms and partnered with Kuka on Industry 4.0. We also announced an investment in Trifacta which develops Software for Data Management and Data Wrangling.

 

Through our culture of learning and education, we have now trained nearly 100,000 people in Design Thinking in our effort to empower every Infoscion to be an innovator and to help our clients find the most important problems to solve together with us. We continue to revamp our curriculum, introducing new ways of learning, leveraging out Infosys Learning platform and other tools.

 

Employee engagement continues to be high. We are bringing new ways of doing talent management and bringing that to bear in retaining and growing and developing top talent. This week we are rolling out the first phase of our equity program enabling our employees to share in the successes and in the ownership of our performance.

 

Beyond our business and ourselves, we continue to bring a great passion and care to the communities around us. In India, the Infosys Foundation among various programs provided several grants this quarter towards Education and Healthcare. Some of these include grants include to the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research in Pune and Bangalore Life Sciences Cluster. In the US, the Infosys Foundation USA continued its mission of providing equal access to Computer Science and Maker Education to underrepresented communities. To evangelize the Maker Movement, the foundation launched the “@WhyIMake Social Campaign” at the June Nation of Makers Event at the White House as well as announced the winners of the spring cycle of the Infy Maker Awards. At Crossroad 2016, the Foundation’s Annual Thought Leadership Conference, the Foundation announced its CS for all community giving program in partnership with the National Science Foundation and DonorsChoose.org.

 

In closing, as I said earlier, we had some unexpected headwinds that resulted in lower-than-expected revenue growth in Q1. At the same time, our long-term vision is stronger and more relevant than ever as we see the promising signs of significant value that is possible with the software-led transformation of the services industry in these early successes that we have seen. Because of this, I take a balanced view of the quarter.

 

On Brexit, there are challenges for a company such as Infosys in this uncertainty and yet there is a great opportunity for technology and services in areas such as integration, interoperability and transparency that an event such as Brexit creates. Technology has a key role to play in this to work across the walled gardens to be a unifier through a time of disruption. It is still too early for our clients or for us to specifically determine the impact of Brexit other than possibly the cautiousness that comes with the short-term uncertainty. Clients are obviously cautious in embarking on new programs at this time especially in Financial Services.

 

Given the weaker-than-expected Q1, our current visibility for Q2 and somewhat broader uncertainty and caution in macro environment, we are lowering our full year fiscal ’17 growth estimate to 10.5% to 12% in constant currency. We had guided in April that our revenue growth in fiscal ’17 would be in the range of 11.5% to 13.5% in FY’16 constant currency terms. As always, depending on our performance and the outlook at the end of Q2, we will provide you an update during the earnings report in October of 2016.

 

Let me now hand it over to Ranga for his comments before we take your questions. Thank you.

 

 

 

  

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Thank you, Vishal. Hello everyone. This is Ranga here.

 

Let me first start with Q1 revenue performance. Our revenues in Q1 were $2,501 mn, this is a growth of 2.2% on reported basis and 1.7% in constant currency basis. On year-on-year basis when compared to Q1 of ’16, revenues have grown 10.9% in dollar terms and 12.1% in constant currency terms.

 

Volumes grew 2.2% during the quarter as compared to 2.4% in Q4 of ’16. On quarter-to-quarter basis, onsite volume grew 3.3% and offshore volume grew 1.8%. Realization for the quarter declined by 0.3% on reported basis and 0.7% in constant currency basis as compared to previous quarter. However, on a year-on-year basis, realization declined 0.2% in constant currency basis and 1.3% in reported basis.

 

As Vishal mentioned earlier, we continue to focus on optimizing our operating efficiency levers. These levers are utilization, subcontractor cost as a percentage of revenue, onsite mix per cent and onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue. Some of these indicators have improved during this quarter. Let me talk about their trajectory during this quarter.

 

Let me first talk about utilization. Our utilization excluding trainees increased by 40 basis points to 80.5%. Similarly, utilization including trainees also went up to 76.5%. Over the last five quarters, utilization excluding trainees has been consistently above 80% and we will continue to focus further improvement and we do believe that there is scope for improvement.

 

On subcontracting expenses as a percentage of revenue, it improved further. You would recall that it was at a higher level of 6.3% of revenue in Q3 of last year, it reduced to 5.6% in Q4 and during this quarter it has further reduced to 5.4%. While some of the subcontractor cost is inevitable to address the business needs, we are further strengthening our talent planning to optimize the need for subcontractors.

 

Our onsite mix increased to 29.9% during the quarter and we need to focus on bringing this down in a gradual manner and we are working on it.

 

Onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue is at 39.3%, primarily on account of compensation increase during the quarter. As you know in Q1, we announced annual compensation increase and we also have visa cost. On a comparable basis to Q1 FY’16, onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue is flat at 39.2%.

 

Typically, in Q1, margins are impacted on account of visa cost and compensation hike. Our operating margin for the quarter was 24.1%, decrease of 140 basis points during the quarter as compared to previous quarter’s 25.5%. Margin for the quarter decreased as compared to previous quarter; 140 basis points due to wage hike and additional 80 basis points on account of visa cost. However, we were able to offset 80 basis points increase due to cost optimization measures that we ticked during the quarter as planned and reduction of variable pay.

 

Our emphasis on healthy operating cash flow generation continued this quarter. Operating cash flow generation was strong and we generated $452 mn of operating cash in Q1 compared to $345 mn last year same quarter. Operating cash flow was up 31% as compared to Q1 of last year.

 

Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30th were $4.918 bn as compared to $5.202 bn last quarter. The decline in cash balance during the quarter was primarily due to dividend payment of $481 mn.

 

Our collections were healthy and DSO for the quarter was 66-days as compared to 68-days in Q1 of last year.

 

Coming to employee metrics, at the group level we added 13,268 gross employees during the quarter with a net addition of 3,006 employees. Our quarterly annualized attrition on a standalone basis has increased to 15.8% from 12.6% last quarter. At the group level annualized attrition was at 21.0% as against 17.3% last quarter.

 

As you know Q1 saw huge volatility in currency especially in the backdrop of Brexit. We managed to navigate the volatility effectively. On a period to period basis, USD appreciated 6.6% against GBP, 2.1% against Euro and 3.1% against Australian Dollar. Our hedge position as of June 30th was $976 mn. We expect some near-term volatility in cross-currency and rupee and we continue to manage the same through appropriate hedges.

 

Yield on cash balances was 7.8% in Q1’17 as compared to 8% in Q4’16 which is a reflection of softening interest rates in India. We expect yield for FY’17 to be approximately 7.5% as compared to 8.6% in FY’16.

 

Coming to taxes, the Effective Tax Rate for the quarter was 28.4%. We expect full year Effective Tax Rate for FY’17 to be around 29%.

 

Our net margins during the quarter were at 20.4% as compared to 21.1% in Q1’16. Our EPS for the quarter was $0.22 compared to $0.21 in Q1’16. So EPS grew 7.4% on year-on-year basis and was down 4.1% on a sequential basis.

 

Coming to clients and business segments, during the quarter, number of $100 mn plus clients increased for the first time after several quarters to 17 from 14 clients in previous quarter. Active clients now stands at 1,126 as compared to 1,092 previous quarter.

 

Coming to segment performance for Q1’17, amongst verticals, Financial Services and Insurance grew by 2.2%, Manufacturing 2.9%, RCL 1%, and ECS grew by 3.1%. In geographical terms, North America grew 2.5%, Europe by 0.6%, Rest of the World by 6.9% and India declined by 7.6% during the quarter on a smaller base.

 

Coming to margins, we have always said that in the medium-term, our margin expectation is in the range of 24% to 26%. If you look at this quarter we had operating margin of 24.1%, almost at the same level of Q1 of last year. During the quarter, we were able to offset to some extent the effect of compensation increase and visa cost through cost optimization measures through several levers that I mentioned earlier during this call. As I mentioned earlier, some of these cost efficiency levers are improving and we will continue to further optimize these levers and we do have opportunity. Therefore, we continue to expect our medium-term margin range to be 24% to 26%.

 

With that we will open the floor for Questions.

Thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, we will now begin the Question-and-Answer Session. We have first question from the line of Edward Caso from Wells Fargo. Please go ahead.

 

Edward Caso

 

Could you talk a little bit about the Insurance vertical? We have been hearing some sort of more cautious commentary across the industry in recent quarters, presumably now that they are more challenged with the extended period of low interest rates. Any thoughts there?

 

Manish Tandon

 

Hi, this is Manish. I run the Insurance sector. The spend in the sector is challenged overall. What is happening is that with the negative bond yields etc., treasury is not producing enough returns and there is overall cut that we see. With that said, we have had a couple of very good wins in the last quarter in the Insurance space and we remain bullish about sector at least for us.

 

 

Edward Caso

 

I just wanted to press a little bit on clarity on the margin guidance and what medium or intermediate term means. Can you help us out here on your press call earlier today you suggested in the short run the margins more in the 24-25% range. Now, is short term this year or shorter than that and given the seasonality of your business with your margins, just trying to help us clarify that?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

We continue to reiterate FY’17 operating margin will be in the range of 24-26%, there is absolutely no change in that range.

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

 

Keith Bachman

 

I would like to start with following up from Ed’s question. As you think about the trajectory of margins over the course of the year, you called out a few things, for instance, visa cost, I understand wage hikes impact this quarter, but how do you anticipate visa cost continuing to be a headwind and more broadly I should say, why do margins go back up? What are the forces that are going to get relieved that causes margins to go back up?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

The margins dropping in Q1 of every financial year is seasonal. As you know, we announce our compensation hikes every year in Q1. Typically, the margin impact on account of compensation hikes is around 1.5%, and this quarter we had 1.4%. As you know, Q1 is also the time when we file for our H1 visas in the US and every Q1 of every year, we have this cost and this year also we had 0.8% impact on account of that. So over Q4, decline of margin by 140 basis points in Q1 of the year is very normal. It happens every year. That is nothing unusual about it. If you look at last year, for example, we were at 24% and this year we are at 24.1% on Q1-on-Q1. So typically the margin dips in first quarter because of these two reasons and afterwards it get normalized during the course of the quarter. So that is one trajectory while we re-iterate 24% to 26%. The second part is coming to the levers. As I mentioned three quarters earlier, there were couple of cost efficiency levers, which we had not fully optimized. First, we identified the subcontractor expenses as a percentage of revenue. It used to be 6.3% in Q3 of last year. We said we will bring it down and it came down to 5.6% of revenue in Q4 and further it came to 5.4% in Q1. While some of the subcontractor expense is required to meet business needs in short-term, at the same time, we do believe that some of that is also because of lack of better talent planning and some inefficiencies in that area. So that is what we are focusing on. We want to eradicate those inefficiencies. Likewise, in utilization, for example, for the last couple of quarters utilization has been consistently above 80% and we do believe that there is scope for couple of points improvement because in some of the quarters, we have had in the range of 82%, 83%. So that is second lever. Likewise, onsite employee cost. So, these are the levers that we believe we have at our disposal and we want to optimize them.

 

 

 

  

Keith Bachman

 

My follow-up question then would I want to talk more broadly about Financial Services. You talked a little bit about the Insurance side and there is some pressure there. But I wanted to hear some comments that you would be willing to share with us surrounding the broader Financial Services, in particular, the investment banking broker-dealer areas. I know in your previous comments you had said that it is a little early to think about the UK situation. How are you thinking about those? If you think about scenarios, the UK situation, what that might do to the investment bank or your broker-dealer world in particular and how that may either help or hurt in terms of the broader Financial sector spending in IT over the next couple of quarters?

 

Mohit Joshi

 

I think in Financial Services, we had a good quarter. If you strip out the results of Finacle, we grew at about 2.5%. You are right. In the broker-dealer segment, we did see some headwinds, so that was lower than we expected. But we are hopeful that it will come back in the second half of the year. Overall, our software plus services story, I think is really resonating well with our clients and the whole industry is in the middle of a transformation. There is a huge amount of interest in technology, what it can do from the perspective of industrialization and reducing cost-to-income ratios and from the perspective of what Digital Transformation can do for the industry. We also see that the pressure on regulatory mandates and the compliance pressure still continues specially in Europe with PSD2 and MiFID II. So we think that the spend in the industry should stay stable. From our perspective we see a strong pipeline for Q2. Even in Q1, if you read through our commentary, of the 10 large deal wins that we had, that is deals over $50 mn, 3 were in the Financial Services business. This included consolidation deals but it also included deals where we led or where we are leading a payment transformation initiative for a bank in Australia. So overall I think we had a good quarter with stable to strong volume growth.

 

On the Brexit question, I think this is something where like the rest of the industry and like the Financial Services business, we are in a wait-and-watch mode. There has been a lot of concern and there has been a lot of volatility. But with the exception of one example we have not really seen slowdowns or change in client behaviors. I think it could be a positive for us as clients look to restructure their businesses or as they look to move work forces to Continental Europe. There will also be a spend on account of new regulatory and compliance mandates which will mean system changes. But on the other hand, it could also mean a slowdown in decision-making and a cut in spending. So we are waiting to see the impact of that. Finally, just to echo what Manish said, I think more than Brexit we are concerned about the interest rate scenarios. So the fact that interest rate hikes are unlikely or are going to be slower in the second half of the year. So we are waiting to see what impact that has on spend.

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Rod Bourgeois from DeepDive Equity Research. Please go ahead.

 

Rod Bourgeois

 

A question about your European business. If Brexit only really affected decision-making at one client which is what I think was said on the earlier conference call, I would like to understand what explains the relative growth weakness in your European geography, I would specifically like to know if Europe’s growth would have been weak in the quarter even in absence of Brexit?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Rod, this was unrelated to Brexit. The one example I think Mohit gave in the earlier call was pertaining to slight slowdown that we saw which was not actually significant in relation to Brexit. However, the slowdown in Europe that we saw is related to the two things that we talked about earlier – the slowdown in the discretionary spending relating to Consulting Services and Package Systems Implementations, as well as one of the large deals that we had won a couple of quarters ago that we had expected to ramp up at a faster rate than it did over the course of the quarter, both examples were in Europe. So that is the reason that we saw the slowdown in Europe. It was not related to Brexit.

 

 

 

  

Rod Bourgeois

 

So on that note, let us talk for a second about the Consulting and Package Implementation business. Quarter-to-quarter swings in a given segment can definitely be misleading I know because of lumpiness of deals. But in that Consulting market you generally are not seeing a lot of lumpiness, you have got a lot of project-based deals there. It was interesting yesterday to hear TCS essentially report much improved consulting growth but I think you are today citing Consulting as a key reason for your revenue weakness and you had a sequential decline in that business. So in that context, can you characterize the latest demand trend in the overall Consulting and System Integration market? I would like to know, to what extent the recent weakness in your business there was due to the market or was it more due to specific challenges on Infosys-specific deals or maybe you encountered some execution setbacks in that business? In other words, can you dimension the market impact in the Consulting business versus the Infosys-specific impact in your Consulting segment in its latest growth rate?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

So I think that it is almost entirely us. It is our situation with clients and our execution. I would say almost all of it or a vast majority of it has nothing to do with the opportunities for Consulting in the broader market. It is all us and this is something that we are going to put a very strong focus on. Rajesh is now running our Consulting business. I do believe that there is actually a need in the tier above our traditional services to offer the next-generation strategic services and program management and high-end capabilities around complex programs whether these are around package systems or not. I think that is something that we continue to be very excited about. On the very top end around strategy and design-oriented engagements, as I mentioned in my commentary earlier, we actually have seen significant amount of success, but roughly 3,000 persons Consulting organization that we have, that we have integrated over the course of the last year, between the old Lodestone company and the Infosys Management Consulting team, that just ran into some challenges that were unanticipated over the course of the previous quarter and those are all largely due to our own execution and this is something that we are going to put a very strong focus on and fix.

 

 

 

  

Rod Bourgeois

 

How long does it realistically take to improve your position in that Consulting business? I am assuming that is a multi-quarter effort, it is not something that turns overnight, right?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Yes, I do not think it will turn overnight. But now that we have a strong focus on it, I am confident that it is going to do better. But you are right, achieving a dramatic turnaround here is going to take couple or three quarters, but this is something that there is no shortage of opportunities there. So I see no reason why we cannot get it straight.

 

 

 

  

Rod Bourgeois

 

September is your seasonally strongest quarter. Do you see some improvement in that Consulting business occurring in your September quarter?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Generally, September quarter is a good one in Consulting. In our case because of European holiday schedule and so forth, it has some impact. But we have factored all of that into the numbers that we have guided on.

 

 

 

  

Moderator

 

Thank you. We have next question from the line of Moshe Katri from Williams Trading. Please go ahead.

 

Moshe Katri

 

Vishal, I think it will be helpful if you provide some more color on some of that spending pause that you mentioned that you have seen in the Consulting universe? Just to clarity, should we assume that this actually continues for the second half of this calendar year based on what you are seeing out there?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Hey, Moshe, first of all, congratulations man. Generally speaking, I do not read too much into that. If you look at the guidance and the underlying situation, the basic pillars of our strategy are both working extremely well - the renewal of our core business and the main delivery engine has worked very well. We delivered about 3.4% growth in the first quarter under Ravi’s leadership and this was clearly something that were the combination of Zero Distance like innovative initiatives on grassroots innovation, this is bringing Design Thinking in a massive way and also on the power of Automation, has all clicked in. Then even more encouragingly, in parallel to that, the new areas around Mana, Skava and Edge did extremely well. Where we had the challenges were in these small pockets in particular in Consulting and Package Implementation as well as in India and Finacle. Finacle was $4 mn decline, so I do not read much into that at all because we had a very good quarter before that. That is basically what has dragged down the performance in the quarter. Being the first quarter of the year and being the sequential quarter-on-quarter nature of the business, we are having to revise the guidance downwards by a point. So that is basically what has gone wrong.

 

The reason for that in the Consulting world as I mentioned, in answer to the previous quarter was primarily our own execution in some projects that ended that we did not anticipate not being renewed and exits in some cases and so forth. So that is something that we are determined to fix and I am not reading too much into the spending pattern and so forth as a broad thing in that context. As I mentioned with regard to Brexit and so forth, this is still too early to tell whether that has an impact in these areas or not, but the impact that I have talked about so far is not related to any of them.

 

 

 

  

Moshe Katri

 

Just a follow-up, are you restudying your hiring plans for the fiscal year because of what you have seen so far?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

No, we are hiring in all ways. Actually as I have said, our longer-term, the 2020 ambitions are around $80,000 revenue per employee which means that the rate at which we hire will tend to decrease and nonetheless it is still even at $20 bn and $80,000 revenue per employee that is 250,000 employees which is a little bit more than 50,000 employees more than where we are at now. So this would not slow down dramatically, it will slow down to some degree because of the benefits of Automation and productivity improvements kicking in. So that is kind of what we are doing.

 

Also, on attrition, yes, the attrition number went up to 15.8% or something thereabouts. But if you look at the high performance attrition, we put in a very specific talent management approach earlier this quarter. As a result of that we were able to decrease the high performance attrition by 2 percentage points from 13.2% in the previous quarter to 11.2%.

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Bryan Bergin from Cowen. Please go ahead.

 

Bryan Bergin

 

On BPO, I think I heard some slowness you mentioned earlier. Can you talk about what verticals or service lines is driving that?

 

Anantha Radhakrishnan

 

Yes, in BPO, we are adapting the ‘Renew’ and ‘New’ strategy. The renewal of the existing BPO is through automation and providing higher productivity. We are using people and software to create greater value for our customers. The new part of the BPO is what is very exciting. We are trying to reshape client experience or stakeholder experience of our clients. We are using Mana in ways very unique to try and create more value for our clients and clearly the operating model has to move from the headcount-based FTE models to percentage of value-based outcome models. That is the journey which we are undertaking, it is very exciting.

 

 

 

  

Bryan Bergin

 

Broadly, on your M&A pipeline, can you just remind us again your core areas and I guess areas of focus?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

The M&A priority continues to be about buying next-generation companies that help us accelerate our ambitions with new technologies. If you look at Skava, it is a great example of the kind of acquisitions that we wish to do or Panaya, the other company that we have bought. So, we are selectively looking for opportunities in new and emerging areas where differentiated technology solutions, AI-based Solutions, collaboration and design solutions can help us advance our mission and that continues to be the case.

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Ankur Rudra from CLSA. Please go ahead.

 

Ankur Rudra

 

Just on the performance for this quarter, Vishal, it has probably been the second or the third quarter we have seen significant volatility on one side or the other compared to where we were expecting. Last time this happened I think you had indicated that you were taking in some steps in terms of getting internal early warning systems and improving execution. Maybe if you can elaborate what steps you have been taken to prevent internal surprises especially in terms of planning?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

The last several quarters, we have been consistently positive in how the changes have happened. This particular time, some of the surprises hit us relatively late, the combination of the Consulting that I mentioned and the slower ramp ups on the projects and so forth. Ultimately, there are bunch of things around simplifying our processes and building internal systems to be much more responsive in real-time. But to a certain degree, there is an inherent volatility in our business where ramp downs are immediate and ramp ups take a while. So that asymmetry creates a challenge in being able to forecast more accurately. Now, we are adding these new dimensions of the software business which have their own dimension of volatility. So, a combination of all these things has got to this point. The solution is very simple to do for us to ensure that we do for us what we do for clients also which is to build much more fine-grained real-time systems that can give us a more granular sense of where we are.

 

 

 

  

Ankur Rudra

 

Would a wider guidance range help given the greater volatility now?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

Ranga is saying we have reduced the guidance and yes, that is true. I think that if we were to increase the guidance range that would help stay within the band, but it would kind of miss the point as well at the same time. I think the better solution to this is to lower the volatility, to have smaller gaps and so forth. Part of it is the fact that we are transforming a business in quite a fundamental way. So, no matter how sophisticated our systems are, there will continue to be surprises that we get hit by. But your point is absolutely something that Pravin and I have been working on which is ultimately to simplify our processes. So Ranga and his team already have put in place earlier this quarter a brand new process that we call ‘OTR’ which is similar to our Order to Cash process and we will continue to make process improvements and bring ourselves and do real-time just as we do for our clients.

 

 

 

  

Ankur Rudra

 

Just one more question on the revised guidance. I realize that you have baked in the impact you have seen in the quarter. But I am not entirely sure I understood whether you baked in potential further caution beyond what you saw in this quarter. So, have you been overly cautious in terms of potential impact of weaker macro environment and Brexit beyond the loss of revenues this quarter?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

No, this is a visibility that we have as of today. We have not baked in the impact of Brexit because we do not know what the impact of Brexit is and where this thing is going to go. Our philosophy in the two years that I have been here as well as in times before, has always been to give our market a very accurate sense of what we see. It is not about this whole business of 'under promise and over deliver and managing expectations and stuff like that. Ranga put it very nicely earlier that we want to always minimize the asymmetry of information between what management sees and what the market sees. That is our always our endeavor and our commitment to you. This guidance is basically what we see at the present time. If this changes, we will of course let you know.

 

 

 

  

Ankur Rudra

 

Just last question. Maybe Ranga you can help me. You mentioned subcontracting cost is something you have worked on very closely in the past and maybe that will be a lever for the rest of the year as well. If you can help me understand, typically what is the transformation of reduction in subcontracting cost, because I am assuming when you reduce subcontracted labor, there is an adjustment in terms of rise in full-time employee cost, maybe an impact on utilization as well. So, net of that typically, how much is let us say 100 basis points decline in subcontracting actually transmit into margins?

 

Ranganath D. Mavinakere

 

Yes, I think that is a good question. One is looking at the subcontracted cost as a percentage of revenue. That has to be seen along with whether the total employee cost as a percentage of revenue is also showing the similar trend line. For example, if the subcontractor expenses by 1%, if the total employee cost goes up by 1% as a percentage of revenue, absolutely, no impact on P&L. However, if you look at this quarter and if you look at the last three quarters, both have moved in tandem. For example, in subcontractor expenses as a percentage of revenue, three quarters ago in Q3 was 6.3% and this quarter it is 5.4%. Now, if you look at the onsite employee cost as a percentage of revenue compared to the last year, it is flat; it is 39.3% and this quarter it is 39.2%.

 

Now, coming back to your second part of the question, which is how does it play out. Yes, there are two types of subcontractor reductions that we are looking at. One, is that subcontractor required at all in that position; can we replace with another employee? In that case, differential savings would really be what we pay to the subcontractor and what we pay to the employee. Typically, subcontractors are hired for niche skill sets and we have seen even up to 30% to 35% of cost differential between employee salary cost and subcontractor expenses. That is one. The second category is we do look at certain opportunities. Do we really need subcontractors beyond a certain period and can they really reduce a total number of headcount in that project, if it is a fixed priced project for example. So it is a combination of these three factors. But, we took a decision that we need to really optimize. While we all agree that subcontractors are required for meeting certain business needs, we looked at internal inefficiency if any in talent planning and timely availability of our own talent pool requirement. So we are able to reduce that.

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Joseph Foresi from Cantor. Please go ahead.

 

Joseph Foresi

 

I was wondering, just starting first with attrition, what part was voluntary versus non-voluntary, and do you expect that to directionally improve, and was any of that related to the project delays in the quarter?

 

Krishnamurthy Shankar

 

So, the involuntary attrition is about 1%, and that has been the average over the last couple of quarters. So, it has not kind of spiked up.

 

 

 

  

Joseph Foresi

 

Obviously directionally, you expect it to improve and none of the attrition was related to the projects themselves that were delayed, right?

 

Krishnamurthy Shankar

 

Normally this quarter, because this is a time many of these people go out and do higher education and all. So, attrition always goes up in this quarter. We have already seen it come down in June. So I think in the next quarter we think it will come down.

 

 

 

  

Joseph Foresi

 

You have done a very good job on the operational innovations. But, from a transformational standpoint I am wondering can you give us any color on the progress you are making on the Digital front? I know a lot of players have given percentages of revenues and you said a number of times that “Hey, all of what we do is Digital.” But, maybe you could either give us some examples or help us understand how you are competing in that particular arena?

 

Vishal Sikka

 

First of all, that term has been quite deeply abused in the industry. I know I have joked about it in the past, but over the course of this last quarter, I looked into some of these Digital projects in more detail. It turns out that a lot of things that are traditional ADM and so forth are characterized as Digital. Having said that, there are two very fundamental, very deeply true ways in which there is a digital revolution going on around us. You have to go back to Nicholas Negroponte’s book on ‘Being Digital’ to get inspiration from that.

 

The first one is areas where end-customer touch points where businesses are digitizing the previously physical end-user touch points. This applies to Retail but also to consumer facing aspects of any business. The second area is where the Internet of Things where the digital technology overlaying on to the physical world, whether in machinery or in the buildings or institutions, machines and so forth, creates new digital opportunities and experiences as a counterpart to the physical world. So, if you look at Digital as these two, our Digital practice that Ravi has, as well as our Skava business that we have run, applies very much to the first part of it, and our Engineering Services work and our Mana platform applies to the second part of it.

  

I do not see any particular value in breaking up this revenue and putting it into some category and then compete with somebody who calls a salesforce.com implementation as digital and so on. But, I can tell you about the things that we consider Digital. All the work that we do in bringing Skava as a new mobile or kiosk environment or virtual reality or chat environment bringing a new interface to engage with clients, that is all digital. The work that we do in creating new digital experiences, new ways of understanding product engagement and consumer behavior, those are in our Digital practice, which has been growing quite significantly under the leadership of the new leader that Ravi has hired.

 

Then on the Internet of Things physical world side, if you look at the work that we have done with Mana, the Internet of Things, Industry 4.0 work, we also did a partnership with Kuka over the course of this quarter in working on Industry 4.0. Our Engineering Services grew significantly in the last quarter, its one of our fastest growing practices. That is again to a large degree based on overlaying the digital world onto the mechanized world, whether it is in turbines or engines or airplanes or chillers or machines like that. I think that if we see enough need from all of you to characterize this particular revenue, then I would be happy to separate that out and call that out. But I am unwilling to call a mobile front-end on a 10-year old website as a Digital revenue.

 

 

 

  

Joseph Foresi

 

Just one last question from me on the pricing front; I know pricing has always been competitive. I am asking sort of a very hypothetical question here. But, should we see a downtick or some sort of disruption due to Brexit, is that your chief concern that pricing could get hit fairly hard because the business and the majority of the business is more commoditized at this point or should we be concerned more about discretionary spending? I am just trying to get a sense of sort of if you are prepared to go into this or if there was a downtick which I know you are not seeing yet, where you would start to see it, and how severe you think you might be able to get?

 

Pravin Rao

 

On the pricing front in the last few years on the business and IT operations side, it has always been under pressure and it is not from a rate card perspective but more from a deal perspective. Whenever a deal comes for renewal, clients are clearly expecting 30% to 40% reduction in what they have spent so that they can repurpose the spend on the discretionary side. Whatever pressure we have on pricing, we are trying to counter through operational metrics as well as through Automation and that is already factored in. But if Brexit happens, then, I think the impact will be mostly on the discretionary side. Because of the uncertainties, some of the projects in short-term may get pushed out or there may be pricing pressure on the discretionary side as well. But again, at this stage, it is hypothetical. We have to see how it will evolve.

1.1 a) As per Ind-AS 19 - Employee Benefits, actuarial gain and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and not reclassified to profit and loss in a subsequent period.
  b) Adjustments reflect unamortized 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.
1.2 Adjustments reflect impact of discounting pertaining to deferred and contingent consideration payable for business combination
1.3 Adjustment reflects impact of amortisation of intangible assets included within goodwill under the IGAAP, separately recognized under Ind-AS
1.4 Tax component on actuarial gains and losses which was transferred to other comprehensive income under Ind AS
1.5 The reduction in deferred tax expense is on account of reversal of deferred tax liabilities recorded on intangible assets acquired in business combination.

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

 

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 July 15, 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.

 

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 2225 years
Plant and machinery 5 years
Computer equipment 35 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

 

Effective April 1, 2016, the group has elected to early adopt IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments considering April 1, 2015 as the date of initial application of the standard even though the stipulated effective date for adoption is April 1, 2018. 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 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 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 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.

Liquid mutual funds:

 

The cost and fair value of liquid mutual funds as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 was $82 million and $10 million, respectively. The fair value is based on quoted prices.

 

Quoted debt securities:

 

Investment in quoted debt securities represents the investments made in debt securities issued by government and quasi governement organisations. The fair value of quoted debt securities (including interest accrued) as on June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 was $261 million and $257 million, respectively. The fair value is based on the quoted prices and market observable inputs.

 

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 three months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Accordingly, for the three months ended June 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).

 

Fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2016:

During the three months ended June 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.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 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 0.49% and 0.49%, 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's 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 $7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and a net loss of $12 million for the three months ended June 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:

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 $1,761 million and $1,710 million as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to $484 million and $457 million as of June 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:

Credit risk exposure

 

The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $2 million. The reversal of allowance for lifetime expected credit losses on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $1 million.

Trade receivables  1,761  1,710
Unbilled revenues  484  457

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 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 June 30, 2016, the Group had a working capital of $5,556 million including cash and cash equivalents of $4,598 million and current investments of $83 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 June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the outstanding employee benefit obligations were $210 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
  June 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  (7)  (3)
Carrying value at the end  561  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 810
Operating margins 1720
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

Net assets(*) 6 6
Intangible assets – technical knowhow 4 4

  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 settled
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 ended June 30, 2016, a post-acquisition employee remuneration expense of $5 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 were 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. 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

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 settled
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 three months ended June 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 June 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.

 

2.10 Employees' Stock Option Plans (ESOP)

 

2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan): SEBI issued the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share based Employee Benefits) Regulations, 2014 (‘SEBI Regulations’) which replaced the SEBI ESOP Guidelines, 1999. The 2011 Plan (as explained below) was required to be amended and restated in accordance with the SEBI Regulations. Consequently, to effect this change and to further introduce stock options/ADR’s and other stock incentives, the Company put forth the 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan) for approval to the shareholders of the Company. Pursuant to the approval by the shareholders through postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors have been authorised to introduce, offer, issue and allot share-based incentives to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries under the 2015 Plan. The maximum number of shares under the 2015 plan shall not exceed 2,40,38,883 equity shares (this includes 11,223,576 equity shares which were held by the Trust towards the 2011 Plan as at March 31, 2016). 1,70,38,883 equity shares will be issued as RSUs at par value and 70,00,000 equity shares will be issued as stock options at market price. These instruments will vest over a period of 4 years and the Company expects to grant the instruments under the 2015 Plan over the period of 4 to 7 years. As of June 30, 2016, 11,211,170 shares are held by the trust towards 2015 Plan.

 

2011 RSU Plan (the 2011 Plan) now called the 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan): The Company had a 2011 RSU Plan which provided for the grant of restricted stock units (RSUs) to eligible employees of the Company. The Board of Directors recommended the establishment of the 2011 Plan to the shareholders on August 30, 2011 and the shareholders approved the recommendation of the Board of Directors on October 17, 2011 through a postal ballot. The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the plan was 1,13,34,400 and the plan was expected to continue in effect for a term of 10 years from the date of initial grant under the plan. During the year ended March 31, 2015, the company made a grant of 108,268 restricted stock units (adjusted for bonus issues) to Dr. Vishal Sikka, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director. The Board in its meeting held on June 22, 2015, on recommendation of Nomination and Remuneration Committee, further granted 1,24,061 RSUs to Dr. Vishal Sikka. These RSUs are vesting over a period of four years from the date of the grant in the proportions specified in the award agreement. The RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators as set forth in the award agreement for each applicable year of the vesting tranche and continued employment through each vesting date. Further the Company has earmarked 100,000 equity shares for welfare activities of the employees, approved by the shareholders vide postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016. The equity shares as of March 31, 2016 held under this plan, i.e. 11,223,576 equity shares (this includes the aggregate number of equity shares that may be awarded under the 2011 Plan as reduced by 10,824 equity shares already exercised by Dr. Vishal Sikka and 100,000 equity shares which have been earmarked for welfare activities of the employees) have been subsumed under the 2015 Plan. The award granted to Dr. Vishal Sikka on June 22, 2015 was modified by the Nomination and remuneration committee on April 14, 2016. There is no modification or change in the total number of RSUs granted or the vesting period (which is four years). The modifications relate to the criteria of vesting for each of the years. Based on the modification, the first tranche of the RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators for the year ended March 31, 2016. Subsequent vesting of RSU's for each of the remaining years would be subject to continued employment.

 

The activity in the 2015 Plan (formerly 2011 Plan) during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 is set out below:

Particulars Three months ended June 30, 2016 Three months ended June 30, 2015
  Shares arising out of options Weighted average exercise price ($) Shares arising out of options Weighted average exercise price ($)
2015 Plan (formerly 2011 Plan):

* Adjusted for bonus issues. (Refer note 2.12)

 

Pursuant to the approval from the shareholders through postal ballot on March 31, 2016, Dr. Vishal Sikka is eligible to receive an annual grant of $2,000,000 of fair value in RSUs which vest over time, subject to continued service, and an annual grant $5,000,000 in performance based equity and stock options, subject to achievement of performance targets set by the Board or its committee, which vest overtime. Though the above RSUs and performance based equity and stock options have not been granted as of June 30, 2016, in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, the company has recorded an employee stock compensation expense of $1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 for the same. 

 

The weighted average share price of options exercised under the 2015 Plan on the date of exercise was $18.

 

The weighted average remaining contractual life of RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 under the 2015 Plan was 1.84 years and 1.98 years, respectively. 

 

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. 

 

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

 

Options granted during Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015
Grant date 22Jun15 21Aug14
Weighted average share price ($) * 16 58
Exercise price ($)* 0.08 0.08

Expected dividends (%) 2.43 1.84
Risk-free interest rate (%) 7 8 8 9
Weighted average fair value as on grant date ($) * 15 55

 

* Data for Fiscal 2015 is not adjusted for bonus issues

 

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

Additional deduction on research and development expense  (2)  (2)
Others  (1)  
Income tax expense 203 184

 

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

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and June 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 31st March 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 June 30, 2016, claims against the group not acknowledged as debts from the Indian Income tax authorities net of amount paid to statutory authorities of $649 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 $662 million (4,383 crore) includes demands from the Indian Income tax authorities of $624 million ( 4,135 crore), including interest of $185 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, which includes $138 million (913 crore) paid during the year March 31, 2016 consequent to demands from tax authorities in India for fiscal 2007 towards denial of certain tax benefits. 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.

2.14 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.

Notes to the 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 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 condensed consolidated interim financial statements are authorized for issue by the company's Board of Directors on July 15, 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 consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016. Accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

 

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 5 years

 

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. (Refer note 2.7)

 

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

 

Effective April 1, 2016, the group has elected to early adopt IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments considering April 1, 2015 as the date of initial application of the standard even though the stipulated effective date for adoption is April 1, 2018.

 

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 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 recognized 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 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 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, 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.

Liquid mutual funds

 

The cost and fair value of liquid mutual funds as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 was 555 crore and 68 crore, respectively. The fair value is based on quoted price.

 

Quoted debt securities:

 

Investment in quoted debt securities represents the investments made in debt securities issued by government and quasi governement organisations.The fair value of quoted debt securities (including interest accrued) as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 is 1,766 crore and 1,703 crore, respectively.The fair value is based on quoted prices and market observable inputs.

 

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 three months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Accordingly, for the three months ended June 30, 2016, the company has recorded, in its other comprehensive income, a reversal of unrealised gain, net of taxes, of 35 crore (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 2Inputs 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).

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.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, every percentage point depreciation / appreciation in the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and U.S. dollar, has affected the Company's incremental operating margins by approximately 0.49% and 0.49%, 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.

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 11,893 crore and 11,330 crore as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to 3,270 crore and 3,029 crore as of June 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 %)

  Three months ended June 30,
  2016 2015
Revenue from top customer  3.6 3.7
Revenue from top five customers  13.7 14.0

 

Credit risk exposure

 

The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was 15 crore. The reversal of allowance for lifetime expected credit losses on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was 4 crore.

Trade receivables  11,893  11,330
Unbilled revenues  3,270  3,029
Days Sales Outstanding- DSO (days)  66  66

 

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 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 June 30, 2016, the Group had a working capital of 37,524 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 31,050 crore and current investments of 563 crore. As of March 31, 2016, the Group had a working capital of 38,456 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 32,697 crore and current investments of 75 crore.

 

As of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the outstanding employee benefit obligations were 1,420 crore and 1,341 crore, 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:

(In crore)

  As of
  June 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  28  191
Carrying value at the end  3,792  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.

 

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:

 (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 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. 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.

 

2.9 Business combinations

 

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 (approximately 216 crore), contingent consideration of upto $5 million (approximately 33 crore on acquisition date) and an additional consideration of upto $32 million (approximately 212 crore on acquisition date), referred to as retention bonus, payable to the employees of Noah at each anniversary year following the acquisition date over 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:

(in crore)

Component Acquiree's carrying amount Fair value adjustments

Purchase price

allocated

Net assets(*) 39   39
Intangible assets – technical know-how   27  27
Intangible assets – trade name   27 27
Intangible assets - customer contracts and relationships   119 119
  39 173 212
Goodwill     30
Total purchase price     242

 

*Includes cash and cash equivalents acquired of 18 crore

 

Goodwill of 4 crore is tax deductible.

 

The gross amount of trade receivables acquired and its fair value is 29 crore 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:

(in crore)

Component Consideration settled
Cash paid 216
Fair value of contingent consideration 26
Total purchase price 242

 

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 the year ended 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 ended June 30, 2016, a post-acquisition employee remuneration expense of 31 crore, has been recorded in the statement of comprehensive income.

 

The transaction costs of 11 crore 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 has 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 has undertaken an enterprise valuation by an independent valuer and accordingly the business were transferred for a consideration of 3,222 crore and 177 crore for Finacle and Edge Services, respectively.

 

The consideration was settled through issue of 85,00,00,000 equity shares amounting to 850 crore and 25,49,00,000 non-convertible redeemable debentures amounting to 2,549 crore in EdgeVerve, post the requisite approval from shareholders on December 11, 2015.

 

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, India, an affiliate of Kallidus. The business acquisition was conducted by entering into a share purchase agreement for cash consideration of $91 million (approximately 578 crore) and a contingent consideration of up to $20 million (approximately 128 crore on acquisition date).

 

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:

(in crore)

Component Acquiree's carrying amount Fair value adjustments

Purchase price

*Includes cash and cash equivalents acquired of 29 crore

 

The goodwill is not tax deductible.

 

The gross amount of trade receivables acquired and its fair value is 57 crore and the amounts has been fully collected.

 

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

(in crore)

Component Consideration settled
Cash paid 578
Fair value of contingent consideration 100
Total purchase price 678

 

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 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 three months ended June 30, 2016 contingent consideration of 40 crore was paid to the sellers of Kallidus on the achievement of the certain financial targets. The balance contingent consideration as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 is 95 crore and 132 crore respectively, on an undiscounted basis.

 

The transaction costs of 12 crore related to the acquisition have been included under administrative expenses in the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2016.

 

2.10 Employees' Stock Option Plans (ESOP)

 

2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan) : SEBI issued the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share based Employee Benefits) Regulations, 2014 (‘SEBI Regulations’) which replaced the SEBI ESOP Guidelines, 1999. The 2011 Plan (as explained below) was required to be amended and restated in accordance with the SEBI Regulations. Consequently, to effect this change and to further introduce stock options/ADR’s and other stock incentives, the Company put forth the 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan) for approval to the shareholders of the Company. Pursuant to the approval by the shareholders through postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors have been authorised to introduce, offer, issue and allot share-based incentives to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries under the 2015 Plan. The maximum number of shares under the 2015 plan shall not exceed 2,40,38,883 equity shares (this includes 11,223,576 equity shares which were held by the Trust towards the 2011 Plan as at March 31, 2016). 1,70,38,883 equity shares will be issued as RSUs at par value and 70,00,000 equity shares will be issued as stock options at market price. These instruments will vest over a period of 4 years and the Company expects to grant the instruments under the 2015 Plan over the period of 4 to 7 years. As of June 30, 2016, 11,211,170 shares are held by the trust towards 2015 Plan.

 

2011 RSU Plan (the 2011 Plan) now called 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan ( the 2015 Plan): The Company had a 2011 RSU Plan which provided for the grant of restricted stock units (RSUs) to eligible employees of the Company. The Board of Directors recommended the establishment of the 2011 Plan to the shareholders on August 30, 2011 and the shareholders approved the recommendation of the Board of Directors on October 17, 2011 through a postal ballot. The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the plan was 1,13,34,400 and the plan was expected to continue in effect for a term of 10 years from the date of initial grant under the plan. During the year ended March 31, 2015, the company made a grant of 108,268 restricted stock units (adjusted for bonus issues) to Dr. Vishal Sikka, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director. The Board in its meeting held on June 22, 2015, on recommendation of Nomination and Remuneration Committee, further granted 1,24,061 RSUs to Dr. Vishal Sikka. These RSUs are vesting over a period of four years from the date of the grant in the proportions specified in the award agreement. The RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators as set forth in the award agreement for each applicable year of the vesting tranche and continued employment through each vesting date. Further the Company has earmarked 100,000 equity shares for welfare activities of the employees, approved by the shareholders vide postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016. The equity shares as of March 31, 2016 held under this plan, i.e. 11,223,576 equity shares (this includes the aggregate number of equity shares that may be awarded under the 2011 Plan as reduced by 10,824 equity shares already exercised by Dr. Vishal Sikka and 100,000 equity shares which have been earmarked for welfare activities of the employees) have been subsumed under the 2015 Plan. The award granted to Dr. Vishal Sikka on June 22, 2015 was modified by the Nomination and remuneration committee on April 14, 2016. There is no modification or change in the total number of RSUs granted or the vesting period (which is four years). The modifications relate to the criteria of vesting for each of the years. Based on the modification, the first tranche of the RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators for the year ended March 31, 2016. Subsequent vesting of RSU's for each of the remaining years would be subject to continued employment.

 

The activity in the 2015 Plan ( formerly 2011 Plan) during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 is set out below:

 

Particulars Three months ended June 30, 2016 Three months ended June 30, 2015
  Shares arising out of options Weighted average exercise price Shares arising out of options Weighted average exercise price
2015 Plan (Formerly 2011 Plan):

* Adjusted for bonus issues. (Refer note 2.12)

 

Pursuant to the approval from the shareholders through postal ballot on March 31, 2016, Dr. Vishal Sikka is eligible to receive an annual grant of $2,000,000 of fair value in RSUs which vest over time, subject to continued service, and an annual grant of $5,000,000 in performance based equity and stock options, subject to achievement of performance targets set by the Board or its committee, which vest over time. Though the above RSUs and performance based equity and stock options have not been granted as of June 30, 2016, in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, the company has recorded an employee stock compensation expense of 7 crore during the three months ended June 30, 2016 for the same.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 under the 2015 Plan was 1.84 years and 1.98 years,

 

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.

 

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

 

Option granted during Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015
Grant date 22Jun15 21Aug14
Weighted average share price ()* 1,024 3,549
Exercise price () * 5 5

Expected dividends (%) 2.43 1.84
Risk-free interest rate (%) 7 8 8 9
Weighted average fair value as on grant date ()* 948 3,355

 

* Data for Fiscal 2015 is not adjusted for bonus issues

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, the company recorded an employee stock compensation expense of 9 crore and 2 crore, respectively in the statement of comprehensive income towards CEO compensation.

Income tax expense  1,362 1,175

 

The applicable Indian statutory tax rates for fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 is 34.61% and 34.61%, respectively.

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and June 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 31st March 2017. The weighted tax deduction is equal to 200% of such expenditure incurred.

 

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 to 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 June 30, 2016 and 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 4,383 crore and 4,383 crore) amounted to 7 crore and 7 crore, respectively.

 

Payment of 4,383 crore (4,383 crore) includes demands from the Indian Income tax authorities of 4,135 crore (4,135 crore), including interest of 1,224 crore (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, which includes 913 crore paid during the year March 31, 2016 consequent to demands from tax authorities in India for fiscal 2007 towards denial of certain tax benefits. 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.

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 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.

 

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.

INFOSYS LIMITED

 

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 July 15, 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.

 

These financial statements are the company's first Ind AS financial statements. 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

 

d. 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

 

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 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 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.

 

1.6 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 cost of sales.

 

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

 

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. 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

 

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.

 

(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.

 

(ii) Cash flow hedge

 

The company designates certain foreign exchange forward and options contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions.

 

When a derivative is designated as a cash flow 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

 

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.

 

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

 

(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 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 and included in cost of sales. 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

 

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.

 

1.14 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

 

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.

 

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. 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.

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 ended June 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 compnay 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 'FVOCI' 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

 

1. Equity as at April 1, 2015, June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2016

2. Net profit for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and year ended March 31, 2016

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.

 

The movement in contingent consideration as of June 30, 2016 from March 31, 2016 is on account of settlement of contingent consideration of 40 crore and change in discount rates and passage of time.

 

The fair value of liquid mutual funds is based on quoted price. The fair value of tax free bonds and government bonds is based on quoted prices and market observable inputs. 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.

 

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.

For the three month ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, every percentage point depreciation / appreciation in the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and U.S. dollar, has affected the Company's incremental operating margins by approximately 0.50% and 0.51%, 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 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. The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank or a financial institution. 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.

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 10,359 crore and 9,798 crore as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to 2,886 crore and 2,673 crore as of June 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:

Credit risk exposure

 

The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was 23 crore. The reversal of allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was 19 crore.

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 and certificates of deposit which are funds deposited at a bank for a specified time period.

 

Liquidity risk

 

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

 

As of June 30, 2016, the Company had a working capital of 33,270 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 27,311 crore and current investments of 332 crore. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital of 34,509 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 29,176 crore and current investments of 2 crore.

 

As of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the outstanding employee benefit obligations were 1,195 crore and 1,130 crore, respectively, which have been substantially funded. Accordingly, no liquidity risk is perceived.

The Company has only one class of shares referred to as equity shares having a par value of 5/-. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share.The equity shares represented by American Depositary Shares (ADS) carry similar rights to voting and dividends as the other equity shares.

For both the bonus issues, 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.

 

The Board has increased dividend pay-out ratio from up to 40% to up to 50% of post-tax consolidated profits effective fiscal 2015.

The Board of Directors, in its meeting on April 15, 2016, proposed a final dividend of 14.25/- per equity share and the same was approved by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on June 18, 2016. The amount was recognized as distributions to equity shareholders during the three month ended June 30, 2016 and the total appropriation was 3,939 crore including corporate dividend tax. (Refer note 2.2.1 for impact on transition to Ind AS)

 

The amount of per share dividend recognized as distributions to equity shareholders during the three month ended June 30, 2015 was 29.50/- per equity share (not adjusted for June 17, 2015 bonus issue).

 

In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive any of the remaining assets of the company in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders, after distribution of all preferential amounts.

Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP):

 

2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan): SEBI issued the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share based Employee Benefits) Regulations, 2014 (‘SEBI Regulations’) which replaced the SEBI ESOP Guidelines, 1999. The 2011 Plan (as explained below) was required to be amended and restated in accordance with the SEBI Regulations. Consequently, to effect this change and to further introduce stock options/ADR’s and other stock incentives, the Company put forth the 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan) for approval to the shareholders of the Company. Pursuant to the approval by the shareholders through postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors have been authorised to introduce, offer, issue and allot share-based incentives to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries under the 2015 Plan. The maximum number of shares under the 2015 plan shall not exceed 2,40,38,883 equity shares(this includes 1,12,23,576 equity shares which were held by the Trust towards the 2011 Plan as at March 31, 2016). 1,70,38,883 equity shares will be issued as RSUs at par value and 70,00,000 equity shares will be issued as stock options at market price. These instruments will vest over a period of 4 years and the Company expects to grant the instruments under the 2015 Plan over the period of 4 to 7 years. As of June 30, 2016, 1,12,11,170 shares are held by the trust towards 2015 Plan.

 

2011 RSU Plan (the 2011 Plan) now called 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan ( the 2015 Plan): The Company had a 2011 RSU Plan which provided for the grant of restricted stock units (RSUs) to eligible employees of the Company. The Board of Directors recommended the establishment of the 2011 Plan to the shareholders on August 30, 2011 and the shareholders approved the recommendation of the Board of Directors on October 17, 2011 through a postal ballot. The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the plan was 1,13,34,400 and the plan was expected to continue in effect for a term of 10 years from the date of initial grant under the plan. During the year ended March 31, 2015, the company made a grant of 108,268 restricted stock units (adjusted for bonus issues) to Dr. Vishal Sikka, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director. The Board in its meeting held on June 22, 2015, on recommendation of Nomination and Remuneration Committee, further granted 1,24,061 RSUs to Dr. Vishal Sikka. These RSUs are vesting over a period of four years from the date of the grant in the proportions specified in the award agreement. The RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators as set forth in the award agreement for each applicable year of the vesting tranche and continued employment through each vesting date. Further the Company has earmarked 1,00,000 equity shares for welfare activities of the employees, approved by the shareholders vide postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016. The equity shares as of March 31, 2016 held under this plan, i.e. 1,12,23,576 equity shares (this includes the aggregate number of equity shares that may be awarded under the 2011 Plan as reduced by 10,824 equity shares already exercised by Dr. Vishal Sikka and 1,00,000 equity shares which have been earmarked for welfare activities of the employees) have been subsumed under the 2015 Plan.

 

The award granted to Dr. Vishal Sikka on June 22, 2015 was modified by the Nomination and remuneration committee on April 14, 2016. There is no modification or change in the total number of RSUs granted or the vesting period (which is four years). The modifications relate to the criteria of vesting for each of the years. Based on the modification, the first tranche of the RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators for the year ended March 31, 2016. Subsequent vesting of RSU's for each of the remaining years would be subject to continued employment.

 

The activity in the 2015 Plan ( formerly 2011 RSU Plan) during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 is set out below:

Pursuant to the approval from the shareholders through postal ballot on March 31, 2016, Dr. Vishal Sikka is eligible to receive an annual grant of $2,000,000 of fair value in RSUs which vest over time, subject to continued service, and an annual grant $5,000,000 in performance based equity and stock options, subject to achievement of performance targets set by the Board or its committee, which vest overtime. Though the above RSUs and performance based equity and stock options have not been granted as of June 30, 2016, in accordance with Ind AS 102 Share-based Payment, the company has recorded an employee stock compensation expense of 7 crore during the three months ended June 30, 2016 for the same.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 under the 2015 Plan was 1.84 years and 1.98 years respectively.

 

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.

 

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

 

Particulars For options granted in
  Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015
Grant date 22-Jun-15 21-Aug-14

Risk-free interest rate (%) 7- 8 8- 9
Weighted average fair value as on grant date ()* 948 3,355

 

* Data for Fiscal 2015 is not adjusted for bonus issues

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, the company recorded an employee stock compensation expense of 9 crore and 2 crore, respectively in the statement of profit and loss towards CEO compensation.

Income tax expense  1,280 1,099

 

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 June 30, 2016, the Company has provided for branch profit tax of 341 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 7 crore movement on account of exchange rate during three months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Deferred income tax liabilities have not been recognized on temporary differences amounting to 4,530 crore and 4,195 crore as of June 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 ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, is as follows:

The charge relating to temporary differences during the three months ended June 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
  June 30, 2016 March 31, 2016 April 1, 2015
Discount rate 7.6% 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 ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 are set out below:

 

Particulars Three months ended June 30,

Discount rate 7.8% 7.8%
Weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels 8.0% 8.0%
Weighted average duration of defined benefit obligation 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 June 30, 2016, every percentage point increase / decrease in discount rate will affect our gratuity benefit obligation by approximately 49 crore.

 

As of June 30, 2016, every percentage point increase / decrease in weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels will affect our gratuity benefit obligation by approximately 41 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 June 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 ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 were 19 crore and 17 crore, respectively.

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 June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 and April 1, 2015, respectively.

Commitments :      
Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital contracts and not provided for (net of advances and deposits)  1,168  1,295  1,272

 

(1)Claims against the company not acknowledged as debts as on June 30, 2016 include demand from the Indian Income tax authorities for payment of tax of 4,135 crores (4,135 crores), including interest of 1,224 crore ( 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.

 

The company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The company’s management does not reasonably expect that these legal actions, when ultimately concluded and determined, will have a material and adverse effect on the company’s results of operations or financial condition.

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.

INFOSYS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

Notes to the Consolidated 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 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 July 15, 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.

 

These financial statements are the Group's first Ind AS financial statements. 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

 

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 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.

 

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 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

 

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 2.17.

 

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

 

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 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 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

 

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
Office equipment 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Plant and machinery 5 years
Computer equipment 3-5 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.

 

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 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 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

 

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 cost of sales.

 

1.11 Financial instruments

 

1.11.1 Initial recognition

 

The group recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, 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.

 

1.11.2 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 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

 

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.

 

1.11.3 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

 

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 fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

 

1.13 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 statement of 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 profit and loss 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 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.

 

1.14 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

 

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 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.

 

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

 

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.

 

1.17 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

 

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 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

 

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.

 

1.18.3 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.

 

1.18.4 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.

 

1.19 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

 

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.

 

1.21 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.

 

1.22 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.

 

1.23 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 ended June 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 ended June 30, 2016 have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS. This is the Group's first set of financial statements 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 ended June 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 acquisiton 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 finacial 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.

(a) Goodwill and Intangible assets

 

Intangible assets and deferred tax assets/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

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

 

(h)1. As per Ind-AS 19, acturial 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 Cashflow statement

 

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

 

2.3 Business combinations

 

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 (approximately 216 crore), contingent consideration of upto $5 million (approximately 33 crore on acquisition date) and an additional consideration of upto $32 million (approximately 212 crore on acquisition date), referred to as retention bonus, payable to the employees of Noah at each anniversary year following the acquisition date over 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:

(in crore)

Component Acquiree's carrying amount Fair value adjustments

Purchase price

allocated

Net assets(*) 39   39
Intangible assets – technical know-how   27  27
Intangible assets – trade name   27 27
Intangible assets customer contracts and relationships   119 119
  39 173 212
Goodwill     30
Total purchase price     242

*Includes cash and cash equivalents acquired of 18 crore

 

Goodwill of 4 crore is tax deductible.

 

The gross amount of trade receivables acquired and its fair value is 29 crore 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:

 

(in crore)

Component Consideration settled
Cash paid 216
Fair value of contingent consideration 26
Total purchase price 242

 

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 the year ended March 31, 2016, based on an assessment of Noah achieving the targets for the year ended December 31, 2015 and year ending December 31, 2016, the entire contingent consideration was reversed in the statement of profit and loss

 

The retention bonus is treated as a post-acquisition employee remuneration expense as per Ind AS 103.

 

Post-acquisition employee remuneration expense of 31 crore has been recorded in the statement of profit and loss for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

2.5 GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

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

In crore

  As of
  June 30, 2016 March 31, 2016 April 1, 2015
Carrying value at the beginning  3,764  3,091  2,157

Goodwill on Noah acquisition (Refer note 2.3)    30  
Translation differences  28  191 (144)
Carrying value at the end  3,792  3,764  3,091

 

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.

 

The following table gives the break up of allocation of goodwill to operating segments as at April 1, 2015

In crore

Segment As at
  April 1, 2015
Financial services  663
Insurance  367
Manufacturing  656
Energy, Communication and Services  318
Resources and utilities  141
Retail, Consumer packaged goods and Logistics  473
Life Sciences and Healthcare  193
Growth Markets  280
Total  3,091

 

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 Ind AS 108, Operating Segments. Accordingly the goodwill has been allocated to the new operating segments as at March 31, 2016.

(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 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.

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.

 

The movement in contingent consideration as of June 30, 2016 from March 31, 2016 is on account of settlement of contingent consideration of 40 crores and change in discount rate and passage of time.

 

The fair value of liquid mutual funds is based on quoted price. The fair value of tax free bonds and government bonds is based on quoted prices and market observable inputs. 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.

 

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.

Net assets / (liabilities)  8,093  1,408  869  646  1,000  12,016

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, every percentage point depreciation / appreciation in the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and U.S. dollar, has affected the Company's incremental operating margins by approximately 0.49% and 0.49%, 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 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.

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 11,893 crore and 11,330 crore as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively and unbilled revenue amounting to 3,270 crore and 3,029 crore as of June 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:

Credit risk exposure

The allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was 15 crore. The reversal of allowance for lifetime expected credit loss on customer balances for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was 4 crore.

Trade receivables  11,893  11,330

Days Sales Outstanding- DSO (days)  66  66

 

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 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. Accordingly, no liquidity risk is perceived.

 

As of June 30, 2016, the Group had a working capital of 37,524 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 31,050 crore and current investments of 563 crore. As of March 31, 2016, the Group had a working capital of 38,514 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 32,697 crore and current investments of 75 crore.

 

As of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the outstanding employee benefit obligations were 1,420 crore and 1,341 crore, respectively, which have been substantially funded. Accordingly no liquidity risk is perceived.

The Company has only one class of shares referred to as equity shares having a par value of 5/-. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share.The equity shares represented by American Depositary Shares (ADS) carry similar rights to voting and dividends as the other equity shares. Each ADS represents one underlying equity share.

 

The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees. The dividend proposed by the Board of Directors is subject to the approval of the shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting. The remittance of dividends outside India is governed by Indian law on foreign exchange and is subject to applicable distribution taxes.

The Company has allotted 114,84,72,332 and 57,42,36,166 fully paid-up shares of face value 5/- each during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, pursuant to bonus issue approved by the shareholders through postal ballot. For both the bonus issues, 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.

 

The Board has increased dividend pay-out ratio from up to 40% to up to 50% of post-tax consolidated profits effective fiscal 2015.

 

The Board of Directors, in its meeting on April 15, 2016, proposed a final dividend of 14.25/- per equity share and the same was approved by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on June 18, 2016. The amount was recognized as distributions to equity shareholders during the three month ended June 30, 2016 and the total appropriation was 3,923 crore (excluding dividend on treasury shares), including corporate dividend tax. (Refer note 2.2.1 for impact on transition to Ind AS)

 

The amount of per share dividend recognized as distributions to equity shareholders during the three month ended June 30, 2015 was 29.50/- per equity share (not adjusted for June 17, 2015 bonus issue).

 

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

Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP):

 

2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan):

 

SEBI issued the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share based Employee Benefits) Regulations, 2014 (‘SEBI Regulations’) which replaced the SEBI ESOP Guidelines, 1999. The 2011 Plan (as explained below) was required to be amended and restated in accordance with the SEBI Regulations. Consequently, to effect this change and to further introduce stock options/ADR’s and other stock incentives, the Company put forth the 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan) for approval to the shareholders of the Company. Pursuant to the approval by the shareholders through postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors have been authorised to introduce, offer, issue and allot share-based incentives to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries under the 2015 Plan. The maximum number of shares under the 2015 plan shall not exceed 2,40,38,883 equity shares (this includes 11,223,576 equity shares which were held by the Trust towards the 2011 Plan as at March 31, 2016). 1,70,38,883 equity shares will be issued as RSUs at par value and 70,00,000 equity shares will be issued as stock options at market price. These instruments will vest over a period of 4 years and the Company expects to grant the instruments under the 2015 Plan over the period of 4 to 7 years. As of June 30, 2016, 11,211,170 shares are held by the trust towards 2015 Plan.

 

2011 RSU Plan (the 2011 Plan) now called the 2015 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2015 Plan):

 

The Company had a 2011 RSU Plan which provided for the grant of restricted stock units (RSUs) to eligible employees of the Company. The Board of Directors recommended the establishment of the 2011 Plan to the shareholders on August 30, 2011 and the shareholders approved the recommendation of the Board of Directors on October 17, 2011 through a postal ballot. The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the plan was 1,13,34,400 and the plan was expected to continue in effect for a term of 10 years from the date of initial grant under the plan. During the year ended March 31, 2015, the company made a grant of 108,268 restricted stock units (adjusted for bonus issues) to Dr. Vishal Sikka, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director. The Board in its meeting held on June 22, 2015, on recommendation of Nomination and Remuneration Committee, further granted 1,24,061 RSUs to Dr. Vishal Sikka. These RSUs are vesting over a period of four years from the date of the grant in the proportions specified in the award agreement. The RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators as set forth in the award agreement for each applicable year of the vesting tranche and continued employment through each vesting date. Further the Company has earmarked 1,00,000 equity shares for welfare activities of the employees, approved by the shareholders vide postal ballot which ended on March 31, 2016. The equity shares as of March 31, 2016 held under this plan, i.e. 1,12,23,576 equity shares (this includes the aggregate number of equity shares that may be awarded under the 2011 Plan as reduced by 10,824 equity shares already exercised by Dr. Vishal Sikka and 1,00,000 equity shares which have been earmarked for welfare activities of the employees) have been subsumed under the 2015 Plan.

 

The award granted to Dr. Vishal Sikka on June 22, 2015 was modified by the Nomination and remuneration committee on April 14, 2016. There is no modification or change in the total number of RSUs granted or the vesting period (which is four years). The modifications relate to the criteria of vesting for each of the years. Based on the modification, the first tranche of the RSUs will vest subject to achievement of certain key performance indicators for the year ended March 31, 2016. Subsequent vesting of RSU's for each of the remaining years would be subject to continued employment.

 

The activity in the 2015 Plan (formerly 2011 Plan) during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 is set out below:

Pursuant to the approval from the shareholders through postal ballot on March 31, 2016, Dr. Vishal Sikka is eligible to receive an annual grant of $2,000,000 of fair value in RSUs which vest over time, subject to continued service, and an annual grant $5,000,000 in performance based equity and stock options, subject to achievement of performance targets set by the Board or its committee, which vest overtime. Though the above RSUs and performance based equity and stock options have not been granted as of June 30, 2016, in accordance with Ind AS 102 Share-based Payment, the company has recorded an employee stock compensation expense of 7 crore during the three months ended June 30, 2016 for the same.

 

The weighted average remaining contractual life of RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 under the 2015 Plan was 1.84 years and 1.98 years respectively.

 

The weighted average share price of options exercised under the 2015 Plan on the date of exercise was 1,206/-

 

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

 

Particulars For options granted in
  Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2015
Grant date 22-Jun-15 21-Aug-14
Weighted average share price () 1,024 3,549
Exercise price () 5.00 5.00
Expected volatility (%) 28-36 30-37
Expected life of the option (years) 1 - 4 1 - 4
Expected dividends (%) 2.43 1.84
Risk-free interest rate (%) 7- 8 8- 9
Weighted average fair value as on grant date () 948  3,355

 

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 ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, the company recorded an employee stock compensation expense of 9 crore and 2 crore in the consolidated statement of profit and loss towards CEO compensation

Entire deferred income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 relates to origination and reversal of temporary differences.

 

A reconciliation of the income tax provision to the amount computed by applying the statutory income tax rate to the income before income taxes is summarized below:

In crore

  Three months ended June 30,
  2016 2015
Profit before income taxes 4,798 4,203
Enacted tax rates in India 34.61% 34.61%

Effect of non-deductible expenses 32  75
Additional deduction on research and development expense (14) (14)
Others  (2)  1
Income tax expense  1,362  1,175

 

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

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and June 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 31st March 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.

 

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 June 30, 2016, the Company has provided for branch profit tax of 341 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 7 crore movement on account of exchange rate during the three months ended June 30, 2016.

 

Deferred income tax liabilities have not been recognized on temporary differences amounting to 4,530 crore and 4,195 crore as of June 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.

 

The following table provides the details of income tax assets and income tax liabilities as of June 30, 2016, March 31, 2016 and April 1, 2015:

The deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities recoverable within and after 12 months are as follows:

In crore

  As of

Deferred income tax liabilities to be settled within 12 months  (190) (180)
Total deferred income tax liabilities  (622) (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 ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, is as follows:

In crore

  Three months ended,

Credits / (charge) relating to temporary differences (Refer Note 2.17 above)  105 (42)
Temporary differences on other comprehensive income   2
Net deferred income tax asset at the end  378 200

 

The credits relating to temporary differences during the three months ended June 30, 2016 are primarily on account of trade receivables, accrued compensation to employees, compensated absences and post sales client support partially offset by property, plant and equipments. The charge relating to temporary differences during the three month ended June 30, 2015 are primarily on account of property, plant and equipment, accrued compensation to employees partially offset by trade receivables and compensated absences.

(In crore)

Particulars As of
  June 30, 2016 March 31, 2016 April 1, 2015
Discount rate 7.6% 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 ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 are set out below:

 

Particulars Three months ended June 30,
  2016 2015
Discount rate 7.8% 7.8%
Weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels 8.0% 8.0%
Weighted average duration of defined benefit obligation 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 June 30, 2016, every percentage point increase / decrease in discount rate will affect our gratuity benefit obligation by approximately 49 crore.

 

As of June 30, 2016, every percentage point increase / decrease in weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels will affect our gratuity benefit obligation by approximately 41 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. 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. Trustees administer contributions made to the trust. As of June 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 ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 were 21 crore and 18 crore, respectively.

 

The Group expects to contribute 65 crore to the gratuity trusts during the remainder of fiscal 2017.

2.22.3 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 June 30, 2016, March 31, 2016 and April 1, 2015, respectively.

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.

 

The company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The company’s management does not reasonably expect that these legal actions, when ultimately concluded and determined, will have a material and adverse effect on the company’s results of operations or financial condition.

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 Ind AS 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.
