Ankur Rudra of JPMorgan says on a broad-based basis, we do not have the visibility that industry growth is going to double digits yet and hence, as we go towards the end of FY25, we may not have the momentum we need for FY26 to be a double-digit growth year. More specific sectors are doing well. Some sub-segments like financial services, maybe parts of high-tech are doing well. Some of the midcaps are doing well but broad-based recovery is still elusive. If there is any kind of macro impact, that is the main sort of headwind to watch out for.

At the moment, it is AI, before this was cloud. So, to implement AI at an enterprise level, most large enterprises will need IT services companies to help them with doing that to integrate IT and AI into their processes. I think there will be a role for them.
