KR Choksey and Securities on Infosys:
Seasonally weak quarter. Revenue growth in USD terms to remain muted at 2 percent. We don't expect significant changes in FY15 USD-term guidance. Q-o-Q Rupee depreciation to support the rupee term revenue growth. Post wage hikes in earlier quarters, we expect the OPMs to expand in this quarter further aided by rupee depreciation.
