Letter to the shareholder

Dear Shareholder,

We are pleased to report that our growth in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 has surpassed expectations. Half-year revenue has reached US$ 1 billion; it took us the whole of fiscal 2004 to achieve the same target. We grew our consolidated Indian GAAP revenues by 31.2% over the corresponding quarter last fiscal, while consolidated net profits from ordinary activities increased by 35.6%. In US GAAP terms, revenues grew by 38.3% over the corresponding quarter last fiscal.

We have revised our guidance to between Rs. 9,361 crore and Rs. 9,383 crore for fiscal 2006 from the original guidance of between Rs. 8,890 crore and Rs. 9,029 crore. In US GAAP terms, the revised guidance is $ 2.14 billion from the original guidance of between $ 2.04 billion and $ 2.07 billion, an estimated growth of 34.4%. Consolidated earnings per American Depositary Share are expected to be between $ 2.04 and $ 2.05.

The depreciation of the rupee during the quarter created a more benign margin environment. Pricing remained stable. Offshore volumes grew at 9.9% and onsite volumes at 11.0 %. We now have 11 clients billing (on a last twelve months or LTM basis) at more than $ 40 million, and 6 at over $ 50 million.

This quarter, we recruited 8,026 (gross) employees, the highest ever during any quarter. Our consolidated strength, including subsidiaries, has grown to 46,196. Our continued investments in a world-scale global education center coupled with our spend on education and research has enabled us to scale up rapidly.

We continued our focus on offering a broad array of services to our customers. Clients and analysts expressed their appreciation of Infosys’ commitment to customer satisfaction. Infosys was awarded high scores in client satisfaction for consulting and outsourcing services in a survey conducted by an independent research firm among US clients of 11 major global IT service providers. Infosys also top-scored among offshore IT service providers in a ranking of consulting and information technology service providers to the Consumer Products industry published by another independent research firm.

This quarter we added 34 new clients, growing our roster of active clients to 450. We won our single largest multi-year, multi-million dollar contract from ABN AMRO to develop, support and enhance a wide spectrum of applications. The contract signifies our entry into the arena of large, global, multi-year outsourcing contracts and is an endorsement of our competitive business model. In a continuing partnership with a Swiss market leader in IT outsourcing and business service provisioning services, we are providing a core banking services platform to the private banking sector in Europe. We also entered into a high-volume, multi-year strategic engagement with a large hi-tech company to unify its IT systems across multiple branches and subsidiaries.

Finacle©, our universal banking solution, further consolidated its position among global Tier 1, Tier 2 and large regional banks, particularly in the strategic Europe market. Key wins include a global top 100 bank headquartered in Europe, one of the top 5 banks in Russia, one of Nigeria’s top 3 banks and a leading pre-launch financial services company in Australia.

Natural calamities in various parts of the world sobered our mood toward the end of the quarter. In the spirit of a caring corporation, we responded swiftly by announcing a relief of Rs. 1 crore for flood-affected people in North Karnataka. In addition, we unanimously committed Rs. 2 crore for the victims of the October 8 earthquake — Rs. 1 crore for the people of Jammu and Kashmir, and an equal amount for those in Pakistan. We also donated Rs. 50 lakh to aid the victims of Hurricane Katrina in the US.

As we move into the second half of the current fiscal year, we seek your support to continue our journey toward excellence and profitability. We thank all Infoscions on your behalf.
