After being overthrown by Cognizant as the second largest IT player in revenue terms, Infosys has stepped up its inorganic strategy to push growth. The IT major could hike its M&A warchest to USD 1 billion, reports CNBC-TV18's Kritika Saxena quoting sources.


Chairman KV Kamath and CEO SD Shibulal have briefed the management on the growth strategy.


On its M&A radar, according to the sources, Infy has two European IT companies and three unlisted companies. Sources say it is also eyeing US-based healthcare solutions firm.


Sources further add that Infosys is keen to close the M&A deal by this fiscal itself. The company has cash reserves of about USD 4 billion.


When contacted, the company refused to comment on the subject calling it 'market speculations'.
