Bengaluru-headquartered IT major Infosys has bagged a deal from energy company BP to be their primary partner for end-to-end application services, the company said. As per sources, the deal size is $1.5 bn, making this a mega deal at a time when the industry has been facing several headwinds, and mega deals are few and far between.

We are now jointly working towards enhancing digital maturity, productivity, and driving innovation for bp,” he said, adding that they will use digital tech and advancements in AI.
