Material Changes and Commitments affecting the Business Operations and Financial Position of the Company

Global economic activity experienced a sharper-than- expected slowdown in the financial year 2022-23. With central banks raising interest rates and food and energy prices coming down, global inflation is gradually subsiding. This has resulted in marginal improvement in business and household buying power.

Verticals across the globe are showcasing signs of caution in their technology spending basis short-term and long-term priorities. The factors such as high inflation and potential recession across the globe have forced companies to drive cost optimization in their operations, invest in operational excellence and drive vendor consolidation. Companies are relying on technologies like cloud, AI and automation to achieve optimization and increase efficiency. Thus, the volatile

global scenario is supporting the demand for technology adoption and digital acceleration. As the banking sector faces margin pressures, overall BFSI technology spends will observe greater caution and delay.

Additional information regarding your Company's business operations and financial position are provided as part of the MD & A Report from page no. 28 onwards.

Outlook

The near-term outlook remains highly uncertain with downside risks of impact from tighter monetary policy, inflation and recession fears, pressures in global energy markets reappearing, unpredictable course of the geopolitical conflict in Europe, and the recent increase in financial market volatility. The rapid tightening of fiscal policies has exposed vulnerabilities both among banking and non-banking financial institutions, showcasing fluctuations in the financial conditions with the shift in sentiment. This may result in slowdown in demand in certain markets and lead to delayed decision making.

Technology spending is forecasted to increase with enterprises' CIOs investing in value-driven transformation focused on areas like cloud transformation, automation, integration of AI, data analytics and cybersecurity as their top priorities. The demand for digital transformation and infrastructure modernization will continue to drive growth for the industry with accelerated adoption of digital and emerging technologies, such as next generation AI, augmented reality ("AR"), vi rtual reality ("VR"), extended reality ("XR"), web3 and metaverse, 5G and edge, cyber and bio convergence. While the emerging technologies will disrupt industries, they will also pose new risks in the areas of data privacy, surveillance and ownership.

According to the Strategic Review 2023 published by NASSCOM (the "NASSCOM Report"), revenue for the Indian IT services' sector is expected to witness growth of 8.3% year-on-year in fiscal year 2023, led by IT modernization including application modernization, cloud migration and platformization. Digital revenues are estimated to account for 32%-34% of total industry revenue, growing at 16% annually in fiscal year 2023. IT services contracts will include a significant digital component, led by digital transformation, cloudification, platform engineering, AI, building software-as-a-service

("SaaS") enabled products and associated consulting services. According to the NASSCOM Report, next generation technologies, such as sensor technology, smart robots, autonomous driving, computer vision, deep learning, autonomous analytics, AR/VR, sustainability technology, edge computing, distributed ledger, spacetech and 5G/6G, are expected to witness twice the average growth in fiscal year 2023.
