Commenting on the performance of Q2 FY 23

Kishor Patil, Co-founder, CEO and MD, KPIT said, "Software is at the heart of the transformation that the mobility industry is witnessing. KPIT's position as a leader in this transformation is leading to consistency in performance and long-term visibility of growth. Q2FY23 performance has been better than expectations. We have a healthy pipeline with a couple of mega engagements expected to get closed in the coming 3-4 months. We have thus raised our FY23 growth outlook to 31 per cent-32 per cent. The organic growth outlook is 200+ bps higher than the higher end of the 18 per cent -21 per cent outlook at the beginning of the year."

Sachin Tikekar, President and Joint MD, KPIT said, "Vehicle makers are investing heavily to develop Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs) of tomorrow. This calls for deep domain expertise and software competence, which KPIT brings to the table. We are seeing the result of this and thus witnessing increased traction with our Strategic Clients. The supply side constraints are gradually moving in the right direction with attrition numbers consistently on the decline. We are very excited with the addition of Technica to the KPIT family with the closing effected in October 2022."
