The country’s second-largest IT firm Infosys Tuesday reported a 10.3 per cent growth in its consolidated net profit at Rs 4,110 crore for the quarter ended September 2018.

It had posted a net profit of Rs 3,726 crore in the year-ago period, Infosys said in a BSE filing.

The Bengaluru-based firm’s revenue grew 17.3 per cent to Rs 20,609 crore in the quarter under review as compared to Rs 17,567 crore in the same period of 2017-18, it added.

“We are delighted with our broad-based growth across all business segments and geographies during the quarter. This is a testimony to our strong client relationships, digital-led full service capabilities, and intense focus on the needs of our clients,” Infosys CEO and managing director Salil Parekh said.

He added that large deal wins at over USD 2 billion during the quarter “demonstrate our increased client relevance and also give us better growth visibility for the near-term”.

Digital revenues at USD 905 million make 31 per cent of total revenues, it said.

The company retained its FY’19 revenue guidance in constant currency at 6-8 per cent.

Infosys also said it will comply with arbitration award asking it to pay Rs 12.17 crore to former CFO Rajiv Bansal.
