Infosys Ltd.’s revenue rose in the fourth quarter on deal wins and increased client spending on digital services, helping the IT company to meet its own growth estimates for the full fiscal.

The software services exporter’s revenue increased 1.28% sequentially to Rs 32,276 crore in the three months through March, according to its exchange filing. That compares with the Rs 32,726.9-crore consensus estimates of analysts tracked by Bloomberg.

The company forecasts operating profit margin at 21-23% for FY23. “We are comfortable in maintaining this band,” said Nilanjan Roy, chief financial officer at Infosys. “As we get into discussion with the clients during renewals, we will look at pushing the margins.”
