We do not see an opportunity for a wage hike at this time, and we will revisit it in the second half of the year.

Q1-FY25 · Mohit Joshi

The commercialization models are not very well developed now, and I do not expect this to be a significant contributor to our revenues.

tracked

Q1-FY26 · Mohit Joshi

This marks our seventh consecutive quarter of margin expansion. This is a significant milestone and speaks of the rigor of our operating model and our continued focus on cost efficiency and the quality of our revenue mix.

Our value lies in helping clients transition from proof of concept to production, from the sandbox to production systems.

Q1-FY26 · Rohit Anand

If the growth situation turns out worse than that based on the macro, then, of course, there will be a relook at that plan.

tracked

Q1-FY27 · Rohit Anand

We delivered our strongest revenue growth since the start of our transformation journey while continuing to expand margins for 11 consecutive quarter.

Q1-FY27 · Atul Sona

AI is just not a technology theme for us. It is becoming a structural lever for growth, delivery, modernization, productivity, talent transformation, and long-term competitiveness.

tracked

Q1-FY27 · Mohit Joishi

We're very happy with the margin growth that we've been able to deliver. I'm also mindful of the fact that we have the wage bill coming up in this quarter and we will certainly have some productivity pressures from an AI perspective and we still have to deliver the 15% margin right so we're not taking that for granted.

Q2-FY24 · C.P. Gurnani

We are now halfway through what would reasonably be called as one of the toughest years for IT services.

We are seeing the percentage of GenAI-infused deals go up every quarter.

tracked

Q2-FY26 · Mohit Joshi

tracked

Q2-FY26 · Mohit Joshi

Our visa dependence in the U.S. is under 30%... we feel that this is a manageable problem.

tracked

Q2-FY26 · Rohit Anand

We are committed to that plan of increasing margins every quarter and getting towards that target.

tracked

Q3-FY24 · Mohit Joshi

We are embarking on a turnaround phase in Tech Mahindra's evolution, and we are actively making foundational moves to upgrade Tech Mahindra's performance.

tracked

Q3-FY24 · Mohit Joshi

I don't think we don't see telecom as having bottomed out. We still see a significant amount of volatility, at least for the next couple of quarters.

tracked

Q3-FY24 · Mohit Joshi

If we have to make a trade-off, we will deliver the margins because we don't want to do substandard growth or get into poor contracts just for the sake of showing growth.

tracked

Q3-FY25 · Mohit Joshi

We're where we set out to be, if not a little bit further, and on the steady path towards achieving our long-term goals.

tracked

Q3-FY25 · Mohit Joshi

I feel it's a little bit like an iceberg, right? You can thankfully see the tip of the iceberg. You can see the top 10%. The 90% below it, right, is the one that gives me a huge amount of confidence that we are building momentum towards achieving the FY27 goals.

tracked

Q3-FY25 · Mohit Joshi

We are the only player that has the capability to build large language models from scratch that is not relying on existing model frameworks.

tracked

Q3-FY26 · Mohit Joshi

We recorded our highest quarterly deal bookings in the last five years, our highest deal wins on a last 12-month basis in the last five years, and our largest deal win in Europe in the comms industry.

We expect to grow higher than the peer average by the end of FY 2027 while progressing towards a 15% EBIT margin for FY 2027.

Q3-FY26 · Mohit Joshi

I just feel that nobody's really come up with a metric which is candidly credible and auditable.

tracked

Q4-FY24 · Mohit Joshi

We have set ourselves very high standards. We will be consistently doing the right thing.

tracked

Q4-FY24 · Rohit Anand

The big differentiating source for us is the new structure. That's why I'm seeing a lot of confidence...

tracked

Q4-FY24 · Mohit Joshi

There is no reason why this platform... should not be delivering in the top three of the peer group.

Q4-FY25 · Mohit Joshi

We have moved from being somewhere in the median to being in the top quartile in a single year.
