YES Securities' research report on Larsen and Toubro Technology Services
L&T Technology Services (LTTS) reported broadly inline financial performance for the quarter. Both, the sequential revenue growth and EBIT margin were as per expectation. It reported revenue growth of 0.9% QoQ in USD terms. The cc revenue growth was 0.9% QoQ in cc terms. There was sequential increase in EBIT margin (up 11 bps QoQ) to 17.2%. led by positive operating efficiency. Employee attrition continues to decline as LTM attrition decreased by 90 bps QoQ to 15.8%. The near term demand environment remains challenging as the clients across sectors remain cautious regarding the evolving macroeconomic situation leading to slow decision making and thus impacting near term revenue performance.
