7 Against these odds, I am pleased to REPORT that your Company reported revenue growth ahead of the industry growth rate this year. Your Company s revenue grew at 19% in USD terms, and in Rupee terms, revenue was at ` 22,621 crore, a growth of 20%.Last year, the global economy was shaken by a dramatic decline in oil prices, a significant jump in the value of the dollar, a slowdown in China, uncertainty in Europe, and anticipation of a shift in monetary policy. This sharp divergence between monetary policy in the United States and policy in other major economies has contributed to huge exchange rate volatility which has led to significant appreciation of USD against some of the major currencies we operate-in like, Euro, GBP, AUD, CAD and BRL.

8 Although some of these currencies have partly pulled back from their lows in FY 15, the impact it would have on the competitiveness and the resulting demand for IT services is still under a state of always, Technology is continuously transforming every facet of our world and the pace of this change is increasing. At an individual level, we are seeing the trend towards personalization of everything, be it your favourite website or potentially the automobile you would drive. This in itself means a change in how people interact, how they work and how they buy.

9 Today, one needs to personalize at an organization level and customise at an individual consumer level. This requires investment in transformation of both systems and processes, which many of our customers are seeking to fund through optimization and efficiency of their current business base. As our customers go through this change, companies like ours have also evolved to measure ourselves on being an efficient business partner driving value for our clients as they embark on this journey of digitization and other facet is the increasing short lived market trends, which means that time to market and speed of execution have become key differentiators for our customers.

10 Increasing, better and faster connectivity are enabling businesses to make the most of their innovative ideas across a wider and global audience. Connectivity is now an integral part of every process and it is difficult to imagine a field which is not being transformed by this increased connectedness .Your company s core strength in Communication and Connectivity, combined with abilities in business and Enterprise systems positions it ideally in this changing environment. Our strategy of focussing on 3our core strengths in Communications has served us well.
