TCS/INFY FY21 AR analysis: A year of Digital acceleration
Structural demand led by Cloud remains a key tailwind
TCS Annual Report 20-21
Infy Annual Report 20-21
Analysis of the FY21 annual reports of TCS and Infosys highlight two big industry
trends: 1) need for across the board Digital transformation as enterprises move
towards contactless business, and 2) rapid adoption of Digital technologies by
companies forcing a re-examination of their cost structures, increase business
resilience, and agility.
These changes will be driven by adoption of Cloud-first solutions to create a
seamless experience across public, private, and hybrid Cloud, and across the
PaaS, SaaS, and IaaS landscapes.
Companies see this technology shift as the start of a multi-year technology
upgradation cycle, which should open up newer opportunities for technology-
driven differentiation.
TCS said it is entering FY22 with a strong growth momentum and much better
visibility of future growth than last fiscal, powered by a strong order book built
up over FY21 and a robust deal pipeline.
While these developments present strong market opportunities for the IT
industry, it is imperative for companies in the IT Services space to transition
from fast-commoditizing of traditional service offerings to attract and retain
quality talent, re-examine cost structures, and leverage Automation for
increased productivity.
Companies will continue to hire talent and operate from their offices. However,
work-from-anywhere model will also allow access to talent in towns and cities
where TCS/INFO may not have offices and delivery centers.
Both TCS and INFO are working towards institutionalizing their hybrid working
model, so as to best serve clients, while getting access to relevant skills in the
market.
By CY25, TCS sees no more than 25% of its employees at its facilities at any point
in time, and no individual would have to spend more than 25% of their time at
its facility to be 100% productive.
INFO has turned carbon neutral 30 years ahead of global guidelines. In its ESG
outlook, it said it would extend its Digital skills to over 10m people, including
employees, clients’ workforce, students, teachers, and communities by FY25.
TCS said it would be carbon neutral by CY50. Total reduction in its carbon
footprint in FY21 was 49%. It has also achieved a power utilization efficiency of
1.6 at its 21 data centers. The management’s focus remains on growing
sustainably, while following all major ESG guidelines set by the group.
ESG remains a key focus area for both TCS and Infosys, with incremental
progress made in FY21.
Enhanced need for relevant skills
Higher focus towards ESG

Enough levers to maintain margin resilience at FY21 levels
TCS expects demand, revenue, and operating costs to normalize and return to
its long-term comfort zone. That, along with higher quality revenue and greater
operating efficiencies, will help sustain operating margin at current levels.
INFO expects margin to remain resilient despite a 320bp increase in FY21.
This will be majorly driven by better business mix, operating leverage, and
additional cost levers enough to curtail some of the cost reversals (discounts,
travel expenses, etc.) expected in FY22.
Balance sheets remain strong and liquid (with cash at 25-29% of assets/3-5% of
m-cap).
Sub-optimal assets like goodwill/intangibles remained low for TCS and INFO (2-
11% of net worth).
Contingent liabilities continued to be low and stable (4-5% of net worth).
RoE of TCS (~38%) and INFO (~27%) remained among the best across industries.
Working capital cycles of these companies reduced by 3-5 days during FY21,
aiding pre-tax cash conversion.
For both companies, OCF grew in the 20-37% range, while FCF grew 22-45%.
OCF/EBITDA conversion stood ~83%, while FCF/PAT conversion was in the 107-
114% range.
TCS’ payout was 95% of FCF on the back of a 22% increase in FCF, at the higher
end of its guidance level. FCF grew 44% YoY for INFO and payout stood at 94%.
This translates into one of the highest returns of cash in absolute terms by both
companies in any particular year.
Both companies continue to deliver at the higher end of their capital allocation
policy. TCS has a payout policy of 80-100% of FCF, while the same for INFO is
85%. INFO has reported the highest ever payout among its peer group in the
past three years.
In the medium and longer term, both companies are seeing strong structural
growth drivers, triggered by a multi-year technology refresh cycle and increased
focus of customers on growth and transformation (G&T) initiatives.
We remain positive on the industry as we expect the sector to sustain double-
digit topline growth in the medium term, led by: 1) increasing visibility on
double-digit growth, 2) larger deals on a full-scale Digital transformation, and 3)
higher spends on Cloud migration by large corporates.
Both companies delivered strong margin in FY21. While some of the margin
tailwinds are not sustainable, it will be offset by other cost levers and a
structural shift towards offshoring. Therefore, we expect margins to stay within
a narrow band.
Our preference for INFO over TCS is premised on its headroom for increased
growth potential and narrowing of the valuation gap between the stocks.
As INFO has outperformed TCS in FY21, we expect the valuation divergence to
continue to narrow. We retain our Buy on INFO, while maintaining our neutral
stance on TCS on elevated valuations.

Healthy deal wins paves way for strong growth outlook
Both TCS and Infosys reported moderate growth of 0.6% YoY and 6.1% YoY USD
respectively in FY21, as both demand and supply were impacted due to COVID-19
pandemic during H1 FY21.However, both companies delivered all time high deal
wins during the year due to increased spend on technology from large enterprises to
maintain operations. Infosys reported large deal wins of USD 14.1b, up56% YoY
while TCS order book of USD 31.5b increased by 17% YoY.
TCS highlighted that demand in industry is being driven by the confluence of two big
trends. First, with consumers preferring contactless, digital transactions, enterprises
were forced to rely more on their digital channels triggering a lot of investment in
the front and back end transformations.
“We see this technology shift as the start of a multi-year technology upgradation cycle in
which the abundance of native capabilities will constantly expand the art of the possible,
opening up newer opportunities for technology-driven differentiation.”
- Rajesh Gopinathan
CEO and Managing Director, TCS
Infosys also emphasized that cloud centric digital technologies are the key
investment areas of enterprises as they are continuously reimagining there
organization structures.
” There is enormous opportunity ahead of us. Technology, especially digital and cloud
continue to be at the center of change for large enterprises globally.”
- Salil Parekh
CEO and Managing Director, Infosys
This technology shift should be the start of a multi-year technology upgradation
cycle, opening up newer opportunities for technology-driven differentiation.

Robust business metrics lead to increase in margins
While both TCS and Infosys reported a decline in headcount in 1QFY21, a rebound in
demand resulted in cumulative net workforce addition of 57K in FY21 - TCS addition
in FY21 was highest in past 15 years at 40k, while INFO added 17K (highest in last 9
years). Despite the unprecedented employee addition, INFO ended the year with its
highest ever employee utilization (87.7% in Q4 FY21).
Both companies also posted their lowest attrition numbers, which coupled with an
increase in utilization and delay in wage revisions helped profitability. Margins for
both companies were further aided by a reduction in travel expenses, increase in
the offshore mix, and ongoing work from home.
As TCS and Infosys further ramp up hiring (both fresher and lateral), we expect a
gradual dip in employee utilization in FY22. In addition, they should see an increase
in attrition on the back of robust demand, along with normal cycle wage hikes.
While these factors should lead to increase in cost base for both companies, they
expect operating leverage to help stabilize profitability.

Strong balance sheets; impairments unlikely
Balance sheets of the Top-2 IT services companies remain strong and liquid. Even as
these companies stepped up capital return (dividend + buy back) to shareholders
over the previous 3 years, cash and short-term investments continues to account for
an impressive 25-29% of total assets and 3-5% of the market capitalizations.
With a strong debt free balance sheet and conversion of most of the PAT in free
cash flow, we continue to expect both TCS and Infosys to benefit from industry
consolidation through captive monetization and niche acquisitions while
maintaining their ability to maintain elevated shareholder payout in future.

range. Interestingly both TCS and Infosys announced buybacks in FY21 to the tune of
INR 160b and INR 92b respectively. Along with dividend total payout for TCS and
Infosys stood above 100% of PAT for FY21.
