For 2015-16, the company gave a revenue guidance of 13.1 percent to 15.1 percent in rupee terms. In dollar terms, the company forecast growth of 6.4 percent to 8.4 percent.
"We are experiencing a once-in-a-generation opportunity for a services company to help businesses maximise their potential with technology... I am encouraged by our progress. While results in any one quarter are transitory snapshots of a long journey, we do see our focussed execution along our strategy starting to produce encouraging results for our clients, shareholders and Infoscions," Infosys CEO and MD Vishal Sikka said.
Infosys COO UB Pravin Rao said the company had strong all-round growth during the quarter, driven by recent initiatives around service differentiation, improvement in client mining and higher focus on winning large deals.
"Increase in revenue productivity was significant, volume growth was robust, client metrics and utilisation improved while attrition remained stable," he added.
In dollar terms, the net profit grew 0.2 percent to $995 million (roughly Rs. 6,445 crores), while revenues rose 7.2 percent to $4.6 billion (roughly Rs. 29,790 crores) in the July-September quarter of 2015-16.
"The impact of significant currency volatility was effectively mitigated by our proactive hedging programme," Bansal said.
During the July-September quarter, Infosys and its subsidiaries added 82 clients.
The company added 8,453 employees in the said period from June 2015 quarter, taking its total headcount to 187,976 as of September 30, 2015.
