Our success in Generative and Agentic Al is evident from 22 transformative use cases that have progressed into replicable projects, unlocking a GBS-led sales potential of nearly $50 million.” “Our investment in an independent Net New (NN) sales unit has also delivered strong early outcomes, with 30 new client additions during H1 representing a revenue potential of about $50-60 million over the next three years.

Our Al-first approach, anchored on platforms with Al at the core of their architecture, is enabling enterprises to drive transformation with speed, precision, and measurable impact.
