Exhibit 99.10
IND AS Consolidated
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF INFOSYS
LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying interim
consolidated financial statements of Infosys Limited (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (the Company and its subsidiaries
together referred to as “the Group”), which comprise the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2019, the Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income) for the three months and year ended on that date, the Consolidated
Statement of Changes in Equity and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended on that date, and a summary of the
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “the interim consolidated financial
statements”).
In our opinion and to the best of our
information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid interim consolidated financial statements give a true
and fair view in conformity with Indian Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“Ind AS 34”) prescribed
under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act’) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India,
of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group as at March 31, 2019, the consolidated profit and consolidated total comprehensive
income for the three months and year ended on that date, consolidated changes in equity and the consolidated cash flows for the
year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the interim
consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India (ICAI). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for
the Audit of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance
with the Code of Ethics issued by the ICAI together with the independence requirements that are relevant to our audit of
the interim consolidated financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence
we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the interim consolidated financial statements.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that,
in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the interim consolidated financial statements of the current
period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the interim consolidated financial statements as a whole, and
in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described
below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter |
Auditor’s Response |
| 1 |
Accuracy of recognition, measurement,
presentation and disclosures of
revenues and other related balances in view of adoption of Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with
Customers” (new revenue accounting
standard)
The application of the new revenue accounting
standard involves certain key judgements relating to identification of distinct performance obligations, determination of transaction
price of the identified performance obligations, the appropriateness of the basis used to measure revenue recognized over a period.
Additionally, new revenue accounting standard contains disclosures which involves collation of information in respect of disaggregated
revenue and periods over which the remaining performance obligations will be satisfied subsequent to the balance sheet date.
Refer Notes 1.5a and 2.16 to the Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements |
Principal Audit Procedures
We assessed the Group’s process
to identify the impact of adoption of the new revenue accounting standard.
Our audit approach consisted testing
of the design and operating effectiveness of the internal controls and substantive testing as follows:
·
Evaluated the design of internal controls relating
to implementation of the new revenue accounting standard.
·
Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts,
and tested the operating effectiveness of the internal control, relating to identification of the distinct performance obligations
and determination of transaction price. We carried out a combination of procedures involving enquiry and observation, reperformance
and inspection of evidence in respect of operation of these controls.
·
Tested the relevant information technology systems’
access and change management controls relating to contracts and related information used in recording and disclosing revenue in
accordance with the new revenue accounting standard.
·
Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts
and performed the following procedures:
•
Read, analysed and identified the distinct performance
obligations in these contracts.
•
Compared these performance obligations with that
identified and recorded by the Group.
•
Considered the terms of the contracts to determine
the transaction price including any variable consideration to verify the transaction price used to compute revenue and to test
the basis of estimation of the variable consideration.
•
Samples in respect of revenue recorded for time
and material contracts were tested using a combination of approved time sheets including customer acceptances, subsequent invoicing
and historical trend of collections and disputes.
•
In respect of samples relating to fixed price contracts,
progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation used to compute recorded revenue was verified with actual and estimated
efforts from the time recording and budgeting systems. We also tested the access and change management controls relating to these
systems.
•
Sample of revenues disaggregated by type and service
offerings was tested with the performance obligations specified in the underlying contracts.
•
Performed analytical procedures for reasonableness
of revenues disclosed by type and service offerings.
•
We reviewed the collation of information and the
logic of the report generated from the budgeting system used to prepare the disclosure relating to the periods over which the remaining
performance obligations will be satisfied subsequent to the balance sheet date.
|
| 2 |
Accuracy of revenues and onerous
obligations in respect of fixed price contracts involves critical estimates
Estimated effort is a critical estimate
to determine revenues and liability for onerous obligations. This estimate has a high inherent uncertainty as it requires consideration
of progress of the contract, efforts incurred till date and efforts required to complete the remaining contract performance obligations.
Refer Notes 1.5a and 2.16 to the Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements. |
Principal Audit Procedures
Our audit approach was a combination
of test of internal controls and substantive procedures which included the following:
·
Evaluated the design of internal controls relating
to recording of efforts incurred and estimation of efforts required to complete the performance obligations.
·
Tested the access and application controls pertaining
to time recording, allocation and budgeting systems which prevents unauthorised changes to recording of efforts incurred.
·
Selected a sample of contracts and through inspection
of evidence of performance of these controls, tested the operating effectiveness of the internal controls relating to efforts incurred
and estimated.
·
Selected a sample of contracts and performed a
retrospective review of efforts incurred with estimated efforts to identify significant variations and verify whether those variations
have been considered in estimating the remaining efforts to complete the contract.
·
Reviewed a sample of contracts with unbilled revenues
to identify possible delays in achieving milestones, which require change in estimated efforts to complete the remaining performance
obligations.
·
Performed analytical procedures and test of details
for reasonableness of incurred and estimated efforts.

Evaluation of uncertain tax positions
The Group has material uncertain tax positions
including matters under dispute which involves significant judgment to determine the possible outcome of these disputes.
Refer Notes 1.5b and 2.22 to the Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements |
Principal Audit Procedures
Obtained details of completed tax assessments
and demands for the year ended March 31, 2019 from management. We involved our internal experts to challenge the management’s
underlying assumptions in estimating the tax provision and the possible outcome of the disputes. Our internal experts also considered
legal precedence and other rulings in evaluating management’s position on these uncertain tax positions. Additionally, we
considered the effect of new information in respect of uncertain tax positions as at April 1, 2018 to evaluate whether any change
was required to management’s position on these uncertainties.
|
| 4 |
Recoverability of Indirect tax receivables
As
at March 31, 2019, non-current assets in respect of withholding tax and others includes Cenvat recoverable amounting to 
523 crores which are pending adjudication.
Refer Note 2.9 to the Interim Consolidated financial
statements.
|
Principal Audit Procedures
We have involved our internal experts to review
the nature of the amounts recoverable, the sustainability and the likelihood of recoverability upon final resolution. |
Management Responsibility for the Interim Consolidated Financial
Statements
Company’s Board of Directors is
responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view
of the consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance, consolidated total comprehensive income, consolidated
changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group in accordance with the Ind AS 34 and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India . The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for maintenance of
the adequate accounting records for safeguarding the assets of the Group and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities;
selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the
accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the interim consolidated financial
statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the interim consolidated
financial statements, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for assessing the
Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of
the companies included in the Group are also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for
the Audit of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the interim consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance,
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these interim consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with
SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
| · | Identify and assess the
risks of material misstatement of the interim consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform
audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,
as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. |
| · | Obtain an understanding
of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on effectiveness of the Company’s internal financial controls. |
| · | Evaluate the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. |
| · | Conclude on the appropriateness
of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material
uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as
a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report
to the related disclosures in the interim consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future
events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. |
| · | Evaluate the overall presentation,
structure and content of the interim consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the interim consolidated
financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
| · | Obtain sufficient appropriate
audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities within the Group to express an opinion on the interim consolidated
financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the interim consolidated
financial statements of such entities included in the interim consolidated financial statements of which we are independent auditors. |
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements
in the interim consolidated financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions
of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative
factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect
of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with
governance of the Company and such other entities included in the consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent
auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings that we identify
during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance
with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them
all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those
charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the interim consolidated financial
statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report
unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that
a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to
outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
Accounting policy

whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past
or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows.
The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. The Group considers all highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

Notes to the interim consolidated financial
statements
1. Overview
1.1 Company overview
Infosys Limited ('the Company' or Infosys) is
a leading provider of consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation digital services, enabling clients to execute strategies
for their digital transformation. Infosys strategic objective is to build a sustainable organization that remains relevant to the
agenda of clients, while creating growth opportunities for employees and generating profitable returns for investors. Infosys strategy
is to be a navigator for our clients as they ideate, plan and execute on their journey to a digital future. Infosys together with
its subsidiaries and controlled trusts is herein after referred to as 'the Group'.
The Company is a public limited company incorporated
and domiciled in India and has its registered office at Electronics city, Hosur Road, Bengaluru 560100, Karnataka, India. The Company
has its primary listings on the BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The Company’s American Depositary
Shares (ADS) representing equity shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
Further, the Company's ADS were also listed
on the Euronext London and Euronext Paris. On July 5, 2018, the Company voluntarily delisted its ADS from the said exchanges due
to low average daily trading volume of its ADS on these exchanges.
The Group's interim consolidated financial statements
are approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on April 12, 2019.
1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements
These interim consolidated financial statements
are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standard 34 (Ind AS 34), under the historical cost convention on the accrual
basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ('the
Act') (to the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The Ind AS are prescribed
under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment
rules issued thereafter.
Accounting policies have been consistently applied
except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires
a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
As the quarter and year figures are taken from
the source and rounded to the nearest digits, the quarter figures in this statement added up to the figures reported for the previous
quarters might not always add up to the year-end figures reported in this statement.
1.3 Basis of consolidation
Infosys consolidates entities which it owns
or controls. The interim consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company, its controlled trusts
and its subsidiaries, as disclosed in Note no. 2.23. Control exists when the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has
rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power
over the entity. Power is demonstrated through existing rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which
significantly affect the entity's returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date control commences until the date control
ceases.
The financial statements of the Group Companies
are consolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-group balances and transactions including unrealized gain / loss from such transactions
are eliminated upon consolidation. These financial statements are prepared by applying uniform accounting policies in use at the
Group. Non-controlling interests which represent part of the net profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries that are not, directly
or indirectly, owned or controlled by the Company, are excluded.
1.4 Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of the financial statements
in conformity with Ind AS requires the management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions. These estimates, judgements and
assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the period. Application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving complex and subjective judgements
and the use of assumptions in these financial statements have been disclosed in Note no. 1.5. Accounting estimates could change
from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management
becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the financial statements
in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial
statements.
1.5 Critical accounting estimates
a. Revenue recognition
The group uses the percentage-of-completion
method in accounting for its fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the group to estimate the
efforts or costs expended to date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended. Efforts or costs expended have
been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity.
Further, the Group uses significant judgements
while determining the transaction price allocated to performance obligations using the expected cost plus margin approach.
Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on
uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates
at the reporting date.
b. Income taxes
The Company's two major tax jurisdictions are
India and the U.S., though the Company also files tax returns in other overseas jurisdictions. Significant judgements are involved
in determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions. Also
refer to Note no. 2.15 and 2.22
In assessing the realizability of deferred income
tax assets, management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate
realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected
future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and
projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, management believes
that the group will realize the benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered
realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are
reduced.
c. Business combinations and intangible assets
Business combinations are accounted for using
Ind AS 103, Business Combinations. Ind AS 103 requires the identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration to be fair
valued in order to ascertain the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree.
Significant estimates are required to be made in determining the value of contingent consideration and intangible assets. These
valuations are conducted by independent valuation experts (Refer to Note no 2.1 and 2.3).
d. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment represent a significant
proportion of the asset base of the Group. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate
of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual
values of Group's assets are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at
each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events,
which may impact their life, such as changes in technology (Refer to Note no 2.2).
e. Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual
basis and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGUs) is less than its carrying
amount based on a number of factors including operating results, business plans, future cash flows and economic conditions. The
recoverable amount of CGUs is determined based on higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost to sell. The goodwill impairment
test is performed at the level of the CGU or groups of cash-generating units which are benefiting from the synergies of the acquisition
and which represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Market related information and estimates are
used to determine the recoverable amount. Key assumptions on which management has based its determination of recoverable amount
include estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated operating margins. Cash flow projections
take into account past experience and represent management’s best estimate about future developments (Refer to Note no 2.3).
f. Non-current assets and Disposal Group
held for sale
Assets and liabilities of Disposal Groups held
for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The determination of fair value less costs
to sell includes use of management estimates and assumptions. The fair value of the Disposal Groups have been estimated using valuation
techniques including income and market approach which includes unobservable inputs.
Non-current assets and Disposal Group that ceases
to be classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of carrying amount before the Non-current asset and Disposal Group
was classified as held for sale adjusted for any depreciation/ amortization and its recoverable amount at the date when the Disposal
Group no longer meets the " Held for sale" criteria. Recoverable amounts of assets reclassified from held for sale have
been estimated using management’s assumptions which consist of significant unobservable inputs (Refer to Note no 2.1.2).
1.6 Recent accounting pronouncements
Ind AS 116 Leases : On March 30, 2019,
Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified Ind AS 116, Leases. Ind AS 116 will replace the existing leases Standard, Ind AS 17
Leases, and related Interpretations. The Standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure
of leases for both parties to a contract i.e., the lessee and the lessor. Ind AS 116 introduces a single lessee accounting model
and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than twelve months, unless the underlying
asset is of low value. Currently, operating lease expenses are charged to the statement of Profit & Loss. The Standard also
contains enhanced disclosure requirements for lessees. Ind AS 116 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements
in Ind AS 17.
The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 116
is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2019. The standard permits two possible methods of transition:
• Full retrospective – Retrospectively
to each prior period presented applying Ind AS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors
• Modified retrospective – Retrospectively,
with the cumulative effect of initially applying the Standard recognized at the date of initial application. Under modified retrospective
approach, the lessee records the lease liability as the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the incremental
borrowing rate and the right of use asset either as:
• Its carrying amount as if the standard
had been applied since the commencement date, but discounted at lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial
application or
• An amount equal to the lease liability,
adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments related to that lease recognized under Ind AS 17 immediately before
the date of initial application.
Certain practical expedients are available under
both the methods.
On completion of evaluation of the effect of
adoption of Ind AS 116, the Group is proposing to use the ‘Modified Retrospective Approach’ for transitioning to Ind
AS 116, and take the cumulative adjustment to retained earnings, on the date of initial application (April 1, 2019). Accordingly,
comparatives for the year ended March 31, 2019 will not be retrospectively adjusted. The Group has elected certain available practical
expedients on transition.
The effect of adoption as on transition date
would majorly result in an increase in right of use asset approximately by 2,300 crore, net investment in
sub-lease approximately by 440 crore and an increase in lease liability approximately by 3,050 crore.
Ind AS 12 Appendix C, Uncertainty over Income
Tax Treatments : On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified Ind AS 12 Appendix C, Uncertainty over Income
Tax Treatments which is to be applied while performing the determination of taxable profit (or loss), tax bases, unused tax losses,
unused tax credits and tax rates, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments under Ind AS 12. According to the appendix,
companies need to determine the probability of the relevant tax authority accepting each tax treatment, or group of tax treatments,
that the companies have used or plan to use in their income tax filing which has to be considered to compute the most likely amount
or the expected value of the tax treatment when determining taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax
credits and tax rates.
The standard permits two possible methods of
transition - i) Full retrospective approach – Under this approach, Appendix C will be applied retrospectively to each prior
reporting period presented in accordance with Ind AS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors,
without using hindsight and ii) Retrospectively with cumulative effect of initially applying Appendix C recognized by adjusting
equity on initial application, without adjusting comparatives.
The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 12
Appendix C is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2019. The Group will adopt the standard on April 1, 2019 and has decided
to adjust the cumulative effect in equity on the date of initial application i.e. April 1, 2019 without adjusting comparatives.
The effect on adoption of Ind AS 12 Appendix
C would be insignificant in the consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to Ind AS 12 – Income taxes
: On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued amendments to the guidance in Ind AS 12, ‘Income Taxes’,
in connection with accounting for dividend distribution taxes.
The amendment clarifies that an entity shall
recognize the income tax consequences of dividends in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or equity according to where the
entity originally recognized those past transactions or events.
Effective date for application of this amendment
is annual period beginning on or after April 1, 2019. The Group is currently evaluating the effect of this amendment on the consolidated
financial statements.
Amendment to Ind AS 19 – plan amendment,
curtailment or settlement- On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued amendments to Ind AS 19, ‘Employee
Benefits’, in connection with accounting for plan amendments, curtailments and settlements.
The amendments require an entity:
• to use updated assumptions to determine
current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the period after a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement; and
• to recognize in profit or loss as part
of past service cost, or a gain or loss on settlement, any reduction in a surplus, even if that surplus was not previously recognized
because of the impact of the asset ceiling.
Effective date for application of this amendment
is annual period beginning on or after 1 April 2019. The Group does not have any impact on account of this amendment.
2.1 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND DISPOSAL GROUP HELD FOR SALE
2.1.1 Business combinations
Accounting policy
Business combinations have been accounted for
using the acquisition method under the provisions of Ind AS 103, Business Combinations.
The cost of an acquisition is measured at the
fair value of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of acquisition,
which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. The cost of acquisition also includes the fair value of any contingent
consideration. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured
initially at their fair value on the date of acquisition.
The interest of non-controlling shareholders
is initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s
identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition,
the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling
interests’ share of subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries.
Business combinations between entities under
common control is accounted for at carrying value.
Transaction costs that the Group incurs in connection
with a business combination such as finder’s fees, legal fees, due diligence fees, and other professional and consulting
fees are expensed as incurred.

2.1.2. Disposal group held for sale
Accounting policy
Non-current assets and Disposal Group are classified
as held for sale if their carrying amount is intended to be recovered principally through sale rather than through continuing use.
The condition for classification of held for sale is met when the non-current asset or the Disposal Group is available for immediate
sale and the same is highly probable of being completed within one year from the date of classification as held for sale. Non-current
assets and Disposal Group held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Non-current
assets and Disposal Group that ceases to be classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of carrying amount before
the non-current asset and Disposal Group was classified as held for sale adjusted for any depreciation/ amortization and its recoverable
amount at the date when the Disposal Group no longer meets the "Held for sale" criteria.
In the three months ended March 2018, the Company
had initiated identification and evaluation of potential buyers for its subsidiaries, Kallidus and Skava (together referred to
as "Skava”) and Panaya, collectively referred to as the “Disposal Group”. The Disposal Group was classified
and presented separately as “held for sale” and was carried at the lower of carrying value and fair value. Consequently,
a reduction in the fair value of Disposal Group held for sale amounting to 118 crore in respect of Panaya had been recognized
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss for the three months and year ended March 31, 2018. During the three months ended
June 30, 2018, on remeasurement, including consideration of progress in negotiations on offers from prospective buyers for Panaya,
the Company has recorded a reduction in the fair value of Disposal Group held for sale amounting to 270 crore in respect of Panaya.
During the three months ended December 31, 2018,
based on evaluation of proposals received and progress of negotiations with potential buyers, the Company concluded that the Disposal
Group does not meet the criteria for “Held for Sale” classification because it is no longer highly probable that sale
would be consummated by March 31, 2019 ( twelve months from date of initial classification as “held for sale”). Accordingly,
in accordance with Ind AS 105 -" Non current Assets held for Sale and Discontinued Operations", the assets and liabilities
of Panaya and Skava have been included on a line by line basis in the consolidated financial statements for the period and as at
December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019.
On reclassification from “Held for sale”,
the assets of Panaya and Skava have been remeasured in the quarter ended December 31, 2018 at the lower of cost and recoverable
amount resulting in recognition of additional depreciation and amortization expenses of 88 crore and an adjustment in respect
of excess of carrying amount over recoverable amount on reclassification from "Held for Sale" of 451 crore (comprising
of 358 crore towards goodwill and 93 crore towards value of customer relationships) in respect of Skava in the consolidated statement
of profit and loss for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2018.
2.2 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Accounting policy
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost,
less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property,
plant and equipment are ready for use, as intended by management. The Group depreciates property, plant and equipment over their
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:
| Buildings (1) |
22-25 years |
| Plant and machinery (1)(2) |
5 years |
| Office equipment |
5 years |
| Computer equipment (1) |
3-5 years |
| Furniture and fixtures (1) |
5 years |
| Vehicles(1) |
5 years |
| Leasehold improvements |
Over lease term |
(1)Based on technical evaluation,
the management believes that the useful lives as given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these
assets. Hence, the useful lives for these assets is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of
the Companies Act 2013.
(2)Includes solar plant with
a useful life of 20 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual
values are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end.
Advances paid towards the acquisition of property,
plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets and
the cost of assets not ready to use before such date are disclosed under ‘Capital work-in-progress’. Subsequent expenditures
relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with
these will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in
the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss when incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from
the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset and the resultant gains or losses are recognized in the Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss.
Impairment
Property, plant and equipment are evaluated
for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For
the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use)
is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those
from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired,
the impairment to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of
the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined (net of any accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.
Following are the changes in the carrying value
of property, plant and equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2019:

Notes: (1) Buildings include 250/-
being the value of 5 shares of 50/- each in Mittal Towers Premises Co-operative Society Limited.
Gross carrying value of lease hold land represents
amounts paid under certain lease-cum-sale agreements to acquire land including agreements where the Group has an option to purchase
or renew the properties on expiry of the lease period.
The aggregate depreciation has been included
under depreciation and amortization expense in the consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.3 GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
2.3.1 Goodwill
Accounting policy
Goodwill represents the cost of business acquisition
in excess of the Group's interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree.
When the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired exceeds the cost of business
acquisition, the bargain purchase excess is recognized after reassessing the fair value of net assets acquired in the capital reserve.
Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual
basis and whenever there is an indication that goodwill may be impaired, relying on a number of factors including operating results,
business plans and future cash flows. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated
to the Group's cash generating units (CGU) or groups of CGU’s expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the business
combination. A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the
cash inflows from other assets or group of assets. Impairment occurs when the carrying amount of a CGU including the goodwill,
exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost
to sell and its value-in-use. Value-in-use is the present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from the CGU.
Total impairment loss of a CGU is allocated
first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro-rata on the basis
of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU. An impairment loss on goodwill is recognized in net profit in the Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss and is not reversed in the subsequent period.
Following is a summary of changes in the carrying
amount of goodwill:

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill
acquired in a business combination is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs, which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition.
The chief operating decision maker reviews the goodwill for any impairment at the operating segment level, which is represented
through groups of CGUs.
During the three months ended June 30, 2018,
the Group internally reorganized some of its business segments to deepen customer relationships, improve focus of sales investments
and increase management oversight. Consequent to the internal reorganization, there were changes in the business segments based
on “Management approach” as defined under Ind AS 108, Operating Segments.(Refer Note 2.24). Accordingly the goodwill
has been allocated to the new operating segments as at March 31, 2019.
The following table presents the allocation
of goodwill to operating segments as at March 31, 2019 :

entity level which amounts to 941 crore as at March 31, 2019.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher
of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. The fair value of a CGU is determined based on the market capitalization.
The value-in-use is determined based on specific calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections over a period of five
years. An average of the range of each assumption used is mentioned below. As at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the estimated
recoverable amount of the CGU exceeded its carrying amount. The key assumptions used for the calculations are as follows:
(in %)
| |
As at March 31, |
| |
2019 |
2018 |
| Long term growth rate |
8-10 |
8-10 |
| Operating margins |
17-20 |
17-20 |
| Discount rate |
12.5 |
13.5 |
The above discount rate is based on the Weighted
Average Cost of Capital (WACC) of the Company. Management believes that any reasonable possible changes in the key assumptions
would not cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit
2.3.2 Other intangible assets
Accounting policy
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated
amortization and impairment. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line
basis, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on
a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors (such as the stability
of the industry, and known technological advances). Amortization methods and useful lives are reviewed periodically including at
each financial year end.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Software
product development costs are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated,
future economic benefits are probable, the Group has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the
costs can be measured reliably. The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labour, overhead costs
that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use.
Impairment
Intangible assets are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an
individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In
such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired,
the impairment to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of
the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

of acquired intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2019:

Deferred contract costs are upfront costs incurred
for the contract and are amortized over the term of the contract. Withholding taxes and others primarily consist of input tax credits
and Cenvat recoverable from Government of India. Cenvat recoverable includes 523 crore which are pending adjudication. The Group
expects these amounts to be sustainable on adjudication and recoverable on final resolution.
# Classified as non financial asset
as the contractual right to consideration is dependent on completion of contractual milestones.
2.10 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Accounting policy
2.10.1 Initial recognition
The Group recognizes financial assets and financial
liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized
at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, that are not at
fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial
assets are accounted for at trade date.
2.10.2 Subsequent measurement
a. Non-derivative financial instruments
(i) Financial assets carried at amortized
cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at
amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash
flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal
and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through
other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at
fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting
contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates
to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Group has made an irrevocable
election for its investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other
comprehensive income based on its business model.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through
profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in
any of the above categories is subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried
at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration recognized in a business combination
which is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from
the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate the fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
b. Derivative financial instruments
The Group holds derivative financial instruments
such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures.
The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank.
(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities,
at fair value through profit or loss.
This category has derivative financial assets
or liabilities which are not designated as hedges.
Although the Group believes that these derivatives
constitute hedges from an economic perspective, they may not qualify for hedge accounting under Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
Any derivative that is either not designated as hedge, or is so designated but is ineffective as per Ind AS 109, is categorized
as a financial asset or financial liability, at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized
initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in net profit in the consolidated Statement of Profit
and Loss when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, these derivatives are measured at fair value through profit or loss
and the resulting exchange gains or losses are included in other income. Assets/ liabilities in this category are presented as
current assets/current liabilities if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the
Balance Sheet date.
(ii) Cash flow hedge
The Group designates certain foreign exchange
forward and options contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast
cash transactions.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow
hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income
and accumulated in the cash flow hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized
immediately in the net profit in the consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria
for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated
or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedging reserve till the period the
hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously
recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss upon
the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount
accumulated in cash flow hedging reserve is reclassified to net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
c. Share capital and treasury shares
(i) Ordinary Shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental
costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares and share options and buyback of ordinary shares are recognized
as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
(ii) Treasury
When any entity within the Group purchases the
Company's ordinary shares, the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost, is presented as a deduction
from total equity, until they are cancelled, sold or reissued. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount
received is recognized as an increase in equity, and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is transferred to / from
share premium.
2.10.3 Derecognition of financial instruments
The Group derecognizes a financial asset when
the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies
for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Group's
Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
2.10.4 Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial
instruments, the Group uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each
reporting date. The methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices
and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually
be realized.
Refer to table 'Financial instruments by category'
below for the disclosure on carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets and liabilities
maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts approximates
fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.
2.10.5 Impairment
The Group recognizes loss allowances using the
expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets and unbilled revenue which are not fair valued through profit or loss.
Loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal
to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets, ECLs are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been
a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of
ECLs (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized
is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, tax free
bonds and non-convertible debentures of 1,797 crore were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 of fair value hierarchy, since
these were valued based on quoted price and 850 crore was transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 of fair value hierarchy, since
these were valued based on market observable inputs.
A one percentage point change in the unobservable
inputs used in fair valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities does not have a significant impact in its value.
Financial risk management
Financial risk factors
The Group's activities expose it to a variety
of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of
financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The primary market risk to the Group
is foreign exchange risk. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange related risk exposures.
The Group's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer and the concentration
of risk from the top few customers.
Market risk
The Group operates internationally and a major
portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk through
its sales and services in the United States and elsewhere, and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies.
The Group holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of
changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures. The exchange rate between the Indian rupee and foreign currencies has
changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Group’s
operations are adversely affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies.

Derivative financial instruments
The Group holds derivative financial instruments
such as foreign currency forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures.
The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank. These derivative financial instruments are valued based on quoted prices
for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
The details in respect of outstanding foreign
currency forward and option contracts are as follows:

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the group
has designated certain foreign exchange forward and option contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange
exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions. The related hedge transactions for balance in cash flow hedges as at March
31, 2019 are expected to occur and reclassified to the statement of profit or loss within 3 months.
Hedge effectiveness is determined at the inception
of the hedge relationship, and through periodic prospective effectiveness assessments to ensure that an economic relationship exists
between the hedged item and hedging instrument, including whether the hedging instrument is expected to offset changes in cash
flows of hedged items.
If the hedge ratio for risk management purposes
is no longer optimal but the risk management objective remains unchanged and the hedge continues to qualify for hedge accounting,
the hedge relationship will be rebalanced by adjusting either the volume of the hedging instrument or the volume of the hedged
item so that the hedge ratio aligns with the ratio used for risk management purposes. Any hedge ineffectiveness is calculated and
accounted for in the statement of profit or loss at the time of the hedge relationship rebalancing.
The following table provides the reconciliation
of cash flow hedge reserve for the three months and year ended March 31, 2019:

Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of default on
its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date
is primarily from trade receivables amounting to 14,827 crore and 13,142 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March 31,
2018, respectively and unbilled revenues amounting to 5,374 crore and 4,261 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March
31, 2018, respectively. Trade receivables and unbilled revenues are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from
customers primarily located in the United States. Credit risk has always been managed by the Group through credit approvals, establishing
credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Group grants credit terms in the normal
course of business. The Group uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain. The Group uses a provision
matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues. The provision matrix takes into
account available external and internal credit risk factors such as credit default swap quotes, credit ratings from international
credit rating agencies and the Group's historical experience for customers.
The following table gives details in respect
of percentage of revenues generated from top customer and top ten customers:

Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is
limited as we generally invest in deposits with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international
and domestic credit rating agencies. Investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units, fixed maturity plan
securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, quoted bonds issued by government and quasi-government organizations and
non convertible debentures.
Liquidity risk
The Group's principal sources of liquidity are
cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Group has no outstanding borrowings. The Group
believes that the working capital is sufficient to meet its current requirements.
As at March 31, 2019, the Group had a working
capital of 34,240 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 19,568 crore and current investments of 6,627
crore. As at March 31, 2018, the Group had a working capital of 34,176 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 19,818
crore and current investments of 6,407 crore.
As at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the
outstanding compensated absences were 1,663 crore and 1,469 crore, respectively, which have been substantially funded.
Accordingly no liquidity risk is perceived.
Under the company's on going buyback programme
the maximum buyback size is 8,260 crore. The company has bought back shares amounting to 797 crore (including transaction
costs) till March 31, 2019 (Refer note 2.11)

The Company has only one class of shares referred
to as equity shares having a par value of 5/-. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share. The equity
shares represented by American Depositary Shares (ADS) carry similar rights to voting and dividends as the other equity shares.
Each ADS represents one underlying equity share.
In the event of liquidation of the Company,
the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive any of the remaining assets of the Company in proportion to the number
of equity shares held by the shareholders, after distribution of all preferential amounts. However, no such preferential amounts
exist currently, other than the amounts held by irrevocable controlled trusts. For irrevocable controlled trusts, the corpus would
be settled in favour of the beneficiaries.
In the period of five years immediately preceding
March 31, 2019:
Bonus Issue
The Company has allotted 2,18,41,91,490 fully
paid up equity shares (including treasury shares) of face value 5/- each during the three months ended September 30, 2018
pursuant to a bonus issue approved by the shareholders through postal ballot. Record date fixed by the Board of Directors was September
5, 2018. The bonus shares were issued by capitalization of profits transferred from general reserve. Bonus share of one equity
share for every equity share held, and a bonus issue, viz., a stock dividend of one American Depositary Share (ADS) for every ADS
held, respectively, has been allotted. Consequently, the ratio of equity shares underlying the ADSs held by an American Depositary
Receipt holder remains unchanged. Options granted under the stock option plan have been adjusted for bonus shares.
The Company has allotted 1,14,84,72,332 and
57,42,36,166 fully paid-up shares of face value 5/- each during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, pursuant
to bonus issue approved by the shareholders through postal ballot. For both the bonus issues, bonus share of one equity share for
every equity share held, and a stock dividend of one ADS for every ADS held, respectively, has been allotted. Consequently, the
ratio of equity shares underlying the ADSs held by an American Depositary Receipt holder remains unchanged. Options granted under
the restricted stock unit plan (RSU) have been adjusted for bonus shares.
The bonus shares once allotted shall rank pari
passu in all respects and carry the same rights as the existing equity shareholders and shall be entitled to participate in full,
in any dividend and other corporate action, recommended and declared after the new equity shares are allotted.
Update on capital allocation policy and buyback
In line with the capital allocation policy announced
in April 2018, the Board, in its meeting held on January 11, 2019, approved the following:
a) Declared a special dividend of 4/-
per equity share;
(b) Recommended buyback of Equity Shares from
the open market route through Indian stock exchanges of up to 8,260 crore (Maximum Buyback Size) at a price not exceeding 800/-
per share (Maximum Buyback Price) subject to shareholders' approval by way of Postal Ballot. After the execution of the above,
along with the special dividend (including dividend distribution tax) of 2,633 crore ($386 million) already paid in June
2018, the Company would complete the distribution of 13,000 crore, which was announced as part of its capital allocation
policy in April 2018
The shareholders approved the proposal of buyback
of Equity Shares recommended by its Board of Directors in its meeting held on January 11, 2019 through the postal ballot that concluded
on March 12, 2019. At the Maximum buyback price of 800/- per equity share and the Maximum buyback size of 8,260 crore
the indicative maximum number of Equity shares bought back would be 10,32,50,000 Equity Shares (Maximum buyback shares) comprising
approximately 2.36% of the paid-up equity share capital of the Company as of March 12, 2019 (the date of conclusion of postal ballot
for approval for buyback).
The buyback was offered to all eligible equity
shareholders of the Company (other than the Promoters, the Promoter Group and Persons in Control of the Company) under the open
market route through the stock exchange. The Company will fund the buyback from its free reserves. The buyback of equity shares
through the stock exchange commenced on March 20, 2019 and is expected to be completed by September, 2019. During the year ended
March 31, 2019, 1,26,52,000 equity shares were purchased from the stock exchange which includes 18,18,000 shares which have been
purchased but not extinguished as of March 31, 2019 and 36,36,000 shares which have been purchased but have not been settled and
therefore not extinguished as of March 31, 2019. In accordance with section 69 of the Companies Act, 2013, during the year ended
March 31, 2019 , the Company has created ‘Capital Redemption Reserve’ of 5 crore equal to the nominal value of the
shares bought back as an appropriation from general reserve.
The Board, at its meeting on August 19, 2017,
approved a proposal for the Company to buyback its fully paid-up equity shares of face value of 5/- each from the eligible
equity shareholders of the Company for an amount not exceeding 13,000 crore. The shareholders approved the said proposal
of buyback of Equity Shares through the postal ballot that concluded on October 7, 2017. The Buyback offer comprised a purchase
of 11,30,43,478 Equity Shares aggregating 4.92% of the paid-up equity share capital of the Company at a price of 1,150/- per
Equity share. The buyback was offered to all eligible equity shareholders (including those who became equity shareholders as on
the Record date by cancelling American Depository Shares and withdrawing underlying Equity shares) of the Company as on the Record
Date (i.e. November 1, 2017) on a proportionate basis through the "Tender offer" route. The Company concluded the buyback
procedures on December 27, 2017 and 11,30,43,478 equity shares were extinguished. The Company has utilized its securities premium
and general reserve for the buyback of its shares. In accordance with Section 69 of the Companies Act, 2013, the Company has created
a Capital Redemption Reserve of 56 crore equal to the nominal value of the shares bought back as an appropriation from the
general reserve during the year ended March 31, 2018.
The Company’s objective when managing
capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximize
shareholder value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividend
payment, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or buy back issued shares. As at March 31, 2019, the Company has only
one class of equity shares and has no debt. Consequent to the above capital structure there are no externally imposed capital requirements.
Dividend
The final dividend on shares is recorded as
a liability on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration
by the Company's Board of Directors.
The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian
rupees. The remittance of dividends outside India is governed by Indian law on foreign exchange and is subject to applicable distribution
taxes. Dividend distribution tax paid by subsidiaries may be reduced / available as credit against dividend distribution tax payable

and / or share buyback) as may be decided by the Board from time to time, subject to applicable laws and requisite approvals, if
any. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditure as per the consolidated statement
of cash flows prepared under IFRS. Dividend payout includes dividend distribution tax.

Company has incurred a net cash outflow of 13,705 crore (excluding dividend paid on treasury shares) inclusive of dividend
distribution tax.
The Board of Directors in their meeting on April
12, 2019 recommended a final dividend of 10.50/- per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2019. This payment
is subject to the approval of shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting of the Company, to be held on June 22, 2019 and
if approved would result in a net cash outflow of approximately 5,483 crore, (excluding dividend paid on treasury shares)
including dividend distribution tax. The final dividend of 10.50/- per equity share and the resultant expected cash outflow is
based on the outstanding number of shares after considering shares bought back by the Company subsequent to the year ended March
31, 2019.

2.14 PROVISIONS
Accounting policy
A provision is recognized if, as a result of
a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that is reasonably estimable, and it is probable that an
outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future
cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the
liability.
a. Post sales client support
The Group provides its clients with a fixed-period
post sales support for corrections of errors and support on all its fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts. Costs associated with
such support services are accrued at the time related revenues are recorded and included in Consolidated Statement of Profit and
Loss. The Group estimates such costs based on historical experience and estimates are reviewed on a periodic basis for any material
changes in assumptions and likelihood of occurrence.
b. Onerous contracts
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized
when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting the future
obligations under the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating
the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established the Group recognizes
any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

2.15 INCOME TAXES
Accounting policy
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred
income tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent
that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in other comprehensive income. Current income
tax for current and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using
the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred income tax assets
and liabilities are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts in the financial statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill
or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit
or loss at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that
it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected
to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
of changes in tax rates on deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes
the enactment or the substantive enactment date. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that
future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Deferred
income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of subsidiaries and branches where it is expected that the earnings
of the subsidiary or branch will not be distributed in the foreseeable future. The Group offsets current tax assets and current
tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle
on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The income tax provision for the interim period
is made based on the best estimate of the annual average tax rate expected to be applicable for the full financial year. Tax benefits
of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are credited to securities
premium.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the
Company entered into Advance Pricing Agreement (APA) in overseas jurisdictions resulting in a reversal of income tax expense of
94 crore which pertained to prior periods.
In December 2017, the Company had concluded
an Advance Pricing Agreement (“APA”) with the US Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for the US branch covering
the years ending March 2011 to March 2021. Under the APA, the Company and the IRS have agreed on the methodology to allocate revenues
and compute the taxable income of the Company’s US Branch operations. In accordance with the APA, the company had reversed
income tax expense provision of $225 million (1,432 crore) which pertained to previous periods which are no longer required.
The Company had to pay an adjusted amount of $223 million (approximately 1,424 crore) due to the difference between the
taxes payable for prior periods as per the APA and the actual taxes paid for such periods. The company has paid $215 million (1,455
crore).
Further, the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (H.R.
1)” was signed into law on December 22, 2017 (“US Tax Reforms”). The US tax reforms has reduced federal tax rates
from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 amongst other measures.
Income tax expense for the three months ended
March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 includes reversal (net of provisions) of 82 crore and reversal (net of provisions) 117
crore respectively. Income tax expense for the year ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 includes reversals (net of provisions)
of 129 crore and 291 crore respectively. These reversals pertain to prior periods on account of adjudication of certain
disputed matters in favor of the company across various jurisdictions.
A reconciliation of the income tax provision
to the amount computed by applying the statutory income tax rate to the income before income taxes is summarized below:

The applicable Indian corporate statutory tax
rate for the year ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 is 34.94% and 34.61%, respectively. The increase in the corporate statutory
tax rate to 34.94% is consequent to changes made in the Finance Act, 2018.
The foreign tax expense is due to income taxes
payable overseas principally in the United States. In India, the Group has benefited from certain tax incentives that the Government
of India had provided for export of software and services from the units registered under the Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Act,
2005. SEZ units which began the provision of services on or after April 1, 2005 are eligible for a deduction of 100% of profits
or gains derived from the export of services for the first five years from the financial year in which the unit commenced the provision
of services and 50% of such profits or gains for further five years. Up to 50% of such profits or gains is also available for a
further five years subject to creation of a Special Economic Zone re-Investment Reserve out of the profit of the eligible SEZ units
and utilization of such reserve by the Group for acquiring new plant and machinery for the purpose of its business as per the provisions
of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Entire deferred income tax for the three months
and year ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 relates to origination and reversal of temporary differences except for a credit
of 155 crore (on account of US Tax Reforms explained above), for the year ended March 31, 2018.
During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company
received 846 crore as dividend from its majority owned subsidiary. Dividend distribution tax paid by the subsidiary on such dividend
has been reduced as credit against dividend distribution tax payable by Infosys. Accordingly, the Group has recorded a charge of
172 crore as income tax expense during the year ended March 31, 2018.
Infosys is subject to a 15% BPT in the U.S.
to the extent its U.S. branch's net profit during the year is greater than the increase in the net assets of the U.S. branch during
the year, computed in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code. As at March 31, 2019, Infosys' U.S. branch net assets amounted
to approximately 5,196 crore. As at March 31, 2019, the Company has a deferred tax liability for branch profit tax
of 201 crore (net of credits), as the Company estimates that these branch profits are expected to be distributed
in the foreseeable future.
Other income for the three months and year ended
March 31, 2019 includes interest on income tax refund of 51 crore each, respectively. Other income for the three months and year
ended March 31, 2018 includes interest on income tax refund of Nil and 262 crore, respectively.
Deferred income tax liabilities have not been
recognized on temporary differences amounting to 6,007 crore and 5,045 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018,
respectively, associated with investments in subsidiaries and branches as it is probable that the temporary differences will not
reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets have not been recognized
on accumulated losses of 2,624 crore and 1,936 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively, as it
is probable that future taxable profit will be not available against which the unused tax losses can be utilized in the foreseeable
future. The balance as at March 31, 2018 excludes the accumulated losses of Disposal Groups classified as held for sale. (Refer
note 2.1.2)

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
have been offset wherever the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities
and where the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.
In assessing the reliability of deferred income
tax assets, the management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate
realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
the temporary differences become deductible. The management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities,
projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable
income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, management
believes that the Group will realize the benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets
considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward
period are reduced.
2.16 REVENUE FROM OPERATIONS
Accounting policy
The Group derives revenues primarily from business
IT services comprising of software development and related services, consulting and package implementation and from the licensing
of software products and platforms across our core and digital offerings (“together called as software related services”).
Effective April 1, 2018, the Group adopted Ind
AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the cumulative catch-up transition method, applied to contracts
that were not completed as at April 1, 2018. In accordance with the cumulative catch-up transition method , the comparatives have
not been retrospectively adjusted. The following is a summary of new and/or revised significant accounting policies related to
revenue recognition. Refer Note 1 “Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report for
the policies in effect for revenue prior to April 1, 2018. The effect on adoption of Ind AS 115 was insignificant.
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control
of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for
those products or services. Arrangements with customers for software related services are either on a fixed-price, fixed-timeframe
or on a time-and-material basis. Revenue on time-and-material contracts are recognized as the related services are performed and
revenue from the end of the last invoicing to the reporting date is recognized as unbilled revenue. Revenue from fixed-price, fixed-timeframe
contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time and where there is no uncertainty as to measurement or collectability
of consideration, is recognized as per the percentage-of-completion method. When there is uncertainty as to measurement or ultimate
collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved. Efforts or costs expended have been used to
measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Maintenance revenue is recognized
ratably over the term of the underlying maintenance arrangement.
Revenues in excess of invoicing are classified
as contract assets (which we refer as unbilled revenue) while invoicing in excess of revenues are classified as contract liabilities
(which we refer to as unearned revenues).
In arrangements for software development and
related services and maintenance services, the Group has applied the guidance in Ind AS 115, Revenue from contract with customer,
by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct performance obligation. The arrangements with customers generally
meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as distinct performance obligations. For allocating
the transaction price, the Group has measured the revenue in respect of each performance obligation of a contract at its relative
standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence of its standalone
selling price. In cases where the Group is unable to determine the standalone selling price, the Group uses the expected cost plus
margin approach in estimating the standalone selling price. For software development and related services, the performance obligations
are satisfied as and when the services are rendered since the customer generally obtains control of the work as it progresses.
Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains
a “right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the license is made available to the customer. Revenue from
licenses where the customer obtains a “right to access” is recognized over the access period. Arrangements to deliver
software products generally have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS). The Group has applied
the principles under Ind AS 115 to account for revenues from these performance obligations. When implementation services are provided
in conjunction with the licensing arrangement and the license and implementation have been identified as two separate performance
obligations, the transaction price for such contracts are allocated to each performance obligation of the contract based on their
relative standalone selling prices. In the absence of standalone selling price for implementation, the performance obligation is
estimated using the expected cost plus margin approach. Where the license is required to be substantially customized as part of
the implementation service the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation is considered to be a single performance obligation
and the revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method as the implementation is performed. Revenue from client
training, support and other services arising due to the sale of software products is recognized as the performance obligations
are satisfied. ATS revenue is recognized ratably over the period in which the services are rendered.
The Group accounts for volume discounts and
pricing incentives to customers as a reduction of revenue based on the ratable allocation of the discounts/ incentives to each
of the underlying performance obligation that corresponds to the progress by the customer towards earning the discount/ incentive.
Also, when the level of discount varies with increases in levels of revenue transactions, the company recognizes the liability
based on its estimate of the customer's future purchases. If it is probable that the criteria for the discount will not be met,
or if the amount thereof cannot be estimated reliably, then discount is not recognized until the payment is probable and the amount
can be estimated reliably. The Group recognizes changes in the estimated amount of obligations for discounts in the period in which
the change occurs.
Deferred contract costs are incremental costs
of obtaining a contract which are recognized as assets and amortized over the term of the contract.
Contract modifications are accounted for when
additions, deletions or changes are approved either to the contract scope or contract price. The accounting for modifications of
contracts involves assessing whether the services added to an existing contract are distinct and whether the pricing is at the
standalone selling price. Services added that are not distinct are accounted for on a cumulative catch up basis, while those that
are distinct are accounted for prospectively, either as a separate contract, if the additional services are priced at the standalone
selling price, or as a termination of the existing contract and creation of a new contract if not priced at the standalone selling
price.
The Group presents revenues net of indirect
taxes in its statement of Profit and loss.

Digital Services
Digital Services comprise of service and solution
offerings of the Group that enable our clients to transform their businesses. These include offerings that enhance customer experience,
leverage AI-based analytics and big data, engineer digital products and IoT, modernize legacy technology systems, migrate to cloud
applications and implement advanced cyber security systems.
Core Services
Core Services comprise traditional offerings
of the Group that have scaled and industrialized over a number of years. These primarily include application management services,
proprietary application development services, independent validation solutions, product engineering and management, infrastructure
management services, traditional enterprise application implementation, support and integration services.
Products & platforms
The Group also derives revenues from the sale
of products and platforms including Finacle – core banking solution, Edge Suite of products, Infosys Nia - Artificial Intelligence
(AI) platform which applies next-generation AI and machine learning and Infosys McCamish- insurance platform.
Trade Receivables and Contract Balances
The Group classifies the right to consideration
in exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or as unbilled revenue.
A receivable is a right to consideration that
is unconditional upon passage of time. Revenue for time and material contracts are recognized as related service are performed.
Revenue for fixed price maintenance contracts is recognized on a straight line basis over the period of the contract. Revenues
in excess of billings is recorded as unbilled revenue and is classified as a financial asset for these cases as right to consideration
is unconditional upon passage of time .
Revenue recognition for fixed price development
contracts is based on percentage of completion method. Invoicing to the clients is based on milestones as defined in the contract.
This would result in the timing of revenue recognition being different from the timing of billing the customers. Unbilled revenue
for fixed price development contracts is classified as non financial asset as the contractual right to consideration is dependent
on completion of contractual milestones. Invoicing in excess of earnings are classified as unearned revenue.
Trade receivable and unbilled revenues are presented
net of impairment in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
During the year ended March 31, 2019 , the company
recognized revenue of 2,237 crore arising from opening unearned revenue as of April 1, 2018.
During the year ended March 31, 2019, 2,685
crore of unbilled revenue pertaining to fixed price development contracts as of April 1, 2018 has been reclassified to Trade receivables
upon billing to customers on completion of milestones.
Performance obligations and remaining performance
obligations
The remaining performance obligation disclosure
provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation
as to when the Group expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. Applying the practical expedient as given in Ind AS 115, the
Group has not disclosed the remaining performance obligation related disclosures for contracts where the revenue recognized corresponds
directly with the value to the customer of the entity's performance completed to date, typically those contracts where invoicing
is on time and material basis. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors,
including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustment for revenue that has not materialized
and adjustments for currency.
The aggregate value of performance obligations
that are completely or partially unsatisfied as at March 31, 2019, other than those meeting the exclusion criteria mentioned above,
is 51,274 crore. Out of this, the Group expects to recognize revenue of around 50% within the next one year and the remaining
thereafter. This includes contracts that can be terminated for convenience without a substantive penalty since, based on current
assessment, the occurrence of the same is expected to be remote.
The impact on account of applying the erstwhile
Ind AS 18 Revenue standard instead of Ind AS 115 Revenue from contract with customers on the financials results of the Group for
the three months and year ended March 31, 2019 and as at March 31, 2019 is insignificant. On account of adoption of Ind AS 115,
unbilled revenues of 3,281 crore as at March 31, 2019 has been considered as a Non financial asset.
2.17 OTHER INCOME, NET
Accounting policy
Other income is comprised primarily of interest
income, dividend income, gain/loss on investment and exchange gain/loss on forward and options contracts and on translation of
other assets and liabilities. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized
when the right to receive payment is established.
Foreign currency
Accounting policy
Functional currency
The functional currency of Infosys, Infosys
BPM, controlled trusts, EdgeVerve and Skava is the Indian rupee. The functional currencies for other subsidiaries are their respective
local currencies. These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (rounded off to crore; one crore equals ten million).
Transactions and translations
Foreign-currency denominated monetary assets
and liabilities are translated into the relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the Balance Sheet date. The
gains or losses resulting from such translations are included in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. Non-monetary
assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at the exchange
rate prevalent at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in
a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction.
Transaction gains or losses realized upon settlement
of foreign currency transactions are included in determining net profit for the period in which the transaction is settled. Revenue,
expense and cash-flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the relevant functional currencies using the
exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction.
The translation of financial statements of the
foreign subsidiaries to the presentation currency is performed for assets and liabilities using the exchange rate in effect at
the Balance Sheet date and for revenue, expense and cash-flow items using the average exchange rate for the respective periods.
The gains or losses resulting from such translation are included in currency translation reserves under other components of equity.
When a subsidiary is disposed off, in full, the relevant amount is transferred to net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit
and Loss. However when a change in the parent's ownership does not result in loss of control of a subsidiary, such changes are
recorded through equity.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising
on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the exchange
rate in effect at the Balance Sheet date.
Effective April 1, 2018, the Group has adopted
Appendix B to Ind AS 21- Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration which clarifies the date of transaction for the
purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income when an entity has
received or paid advance consideration in a foreign currency. The effect on account of adoption of this amendment was insignificant.
Government grant
The Group recognizes government grants only
when there is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to them shall be complied with, and the grants will be received.
Government grants related to assets are treated as deferred income and are recognized in net profit in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Government grants related to revenue are
recognized on a systematic basis in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss over the periods necessary to match
them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate.

2.19 LEASES
Accounting policy

or present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease, whichever is lower. Lease payments under operating

2.20 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Accounting policy
Gratuity
The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit
retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees of Infosys and its Indian subsidiaries. The Gratuity Plan provides
a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on
the respective employee's salary and the tenure of employment with the Group.
Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plan
are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit
credit method. The Company fully contributes all ascertained liabilities to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust
(the Trust). In case of Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPM Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust and
EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively. Trustees administer contributions made to the Trusts and
contributions are invested in a scheme with the Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by Indian law.
The Group recognizes the net obligation of a
defined benefit plan in its Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined
benefit liability/(asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent
periods. The actual return of the portfolio of plan assets, in excess of the yields computed by applying the discount rate used
to measure the defined benefit obligation is recognized in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments is recognized
in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
Provident fund
Eligible employees of Infosys receive benefits
from a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the eligible employee and the Company make monthly contributions to
the provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. The Company contributes a portion to
the Infosys Limited Employees' Provident Fund Trust. The trust invests in specific designated instruments as permitted by Indian
law. The remaining portion is contributed to the government administered pension fund. The rate at which the annual interest is
payable to the beneficiaries by the trust is being administered by the government. The Company has an obligation to make good the
shortfall, if any, between the return from the investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
In respect of Indian subsidiaries, eligible
employees receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the eligible employee and the respective
companies make monthly contributions to this provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary.
Amounts collected under the provident fund plan are deposited in a government administered provident fund. The Companies have no
further obligation to the plan beyond its monthly contributions.
Superannuation
Certain employees of Infosys, Infosys BPM and
EdgeVerve are participants in a defined contribution plan. The Group has no further obligations to the plan beyond its monthly
contributions which are periodically contributed to a trust fund, the corpus of which is invested with the Life Insurance Corporation
of India.
Compensated absences
The Group has a policy on compensated absences
which are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined
by actuarial valuation performed by an independent actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the
additional amount expected to be paid/availed as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date.
Expense on non-accumulating compensated absences is recognized in the period in which the absences occur.
2.20.1 Gratuity

Assumptions regarding future mortality experience
are set in accordance with the published statistics by the Life Insurance Corporation of India.
The Company assesses these assumptions with
its projected long-term plans of growth and prevalent industry standards. The discount rate is based on the government securities
yield.

As at

Sensitivity to significant actuarial assumptions
is computed by varying one actuarial assumption used for the valuation of the defined benefit obligation by one percentage, keeping
all other actuarial assumptions constant. In practice, this is not probable, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated.
Gratuity is applicable only to employees drawing
a salary in Indian rupees and there are no other significant foreign defined benefit gratuity plans.
The Company contributes all ascertained liabilities
towards gratuity to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust. In case of Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve, contributions are
made to the Infosys BPM Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust and EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively.
Trustees administer contributions made to the trust as at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the plan assets have been primarily
invested in insurer managed funds.
Actual return on assets for the three months
ended March 31, 2019, and March 31, 2018 were 23 crore and 23 crore, respectively.
Actual return on assets for the year ended March
31, 2019, and March 31, 2018 were 95 crore and 93 crore, respectively.
The Group expects to contribute 162 crore

2.20.2 Provident fund
Infosys has an obligation to fund any shortfall
on the yield of the trust’s investments over the administered interest rates on an annual basis. These administered rates
are determined annually predominantly considering the social rather than economic factors and in most cases the actual return earned
by the Company has been higher in the past years. The actuary has provided a valuation for provident fund liabilities on the basis
of guidance issued by Actuarial Society of India and based on the assumptions provided below there is no shortfall as at March
31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

2.21 RECONCILIATION OF BASIC AND DILUTED SHARES USED IN COMPUTING EARNINGS PER SHARE
Accounting policy
Basic earnings per equity share is computed
by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders
of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also
the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair
value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as
at the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for
each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially
dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including
for changes effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.
The following is a reconciliation of the equity
shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per equity share:

2.24 SEGMENT REPORTING
Ind AS 108 establishes standards for the way
that public business enterprises report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The Group's operations predominantly relate to providing end-to-end business solutions to
enable clients to enhance business performance.
During the three months ended June 30, 2018,
the Group internally reorganized some of its business segments to deepen customer relationships, improve focus of sales investments
and increase management oversight. Consequent to the internal reorganization, there were changes in the reportable business segments
based on “Management approach” as defined under Ind AS 108, Operating Segments. Therefore, enterprises in Insurance
which was earlier considered under the Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance business segment are now considered under the Financial
Services business segment and enterprises in Communication, Telecom OEM and Media which was earlier under Energy & Utilities,
Communication and Services is now shown as a separate business segment. Segmental operating income has changed in line with these
as well as changes in the allocation method. The CODM evaluates the Group's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis
of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly, information has been presented along business segments. The
accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure
in individual segments, and are as set out in the accounting policies.
Business segments of the Group are primarily
enterprises in Financial Services and Insurance, enterprises in Manufacturing, enterprises in Retail, Consumer Packaged Goods and
Logistics, enterprises in the Energy, Utilities, Resources and Services, enterprises in Communication, Telecom OEM and Media, enterprises
in Hi-Tech, enterprises in Life Sciences and Healthcare and all other segments. The Financial services reportable segments has
been aggregated to include the Financial Services operating segment and Finacle operating segment because of the similarity of
the economic characteristics. All other segments represent the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan, China, Infosys
Public Services & other enterprises in Public Services. Consequent to the above change in the composition of reportable business
segments, the prior year comparatives for three months and year ended March 31, 2018 have been restated.
Revenue and identifiable operating expenses
in relation to segments are categorized based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment. Revenue for 'all other
segments' represents revenue generated by Infosys Public services and revenue generated from customers located in India, Japan
and China and other enterprises in Public services. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services
from the Group's offshore software development centres and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated
efforts of the segment. Certain expenses such as depreciation, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically
allocable to specific segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. The management believes that it is not practical
to provide segment disclosures relating to those costs and expenses, and accordingly these expenses are separately disclosed as
"unallocated" and adjusted against the total income of the Group.
Assets and liabilities used in the Group's business
are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The management believes
that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful
segregation of the available data is onerous.
Business segment revenue information is collated
based on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF INFOSYS LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Consolidated
Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
financial statements of Infosys Limited (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (the Company and its subsidiaries together
referred to as “the Group”), which comprise the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2019, the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended on that date, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information (hereinafter referred to as “the consolidated financial statements”).
In our opinion and to the best of our
information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid consolidated financial statements give the information
required by the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity
with Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2015, as amended (“Ind AS”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the consolidated
state of affairs of the Group as at March 31, 2019, the consolidated profit, consolidated total comprehensive income, consolidated
changes in equity and its consolidated cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the consolidated
financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities
under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial
Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the independence requirements that are relevant to our audit of
the consolidated financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated financial
statements.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that,
in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period.
These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be
the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
| Sr. No. |
Key Audit Matter |
Auditor’s Response |
| 1 |
Accuracy of recognition, measurement,
presentation and disclosures of
revenues and other related balances in view of adoption of Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with
Customers” (new revenue accounting
standard)
The application of the new revenue accounting
standard involves certain key judgements relating to identification of distinct performance obligations, determination of transaction
price of the identified performance obligations, the appropriateness of the basis used to measure revenue recognised over a period.
Additionally, new revenue accounting standard contains disclosures which involves collation of information in respect of disaggregated
revenue and periods over which the remaining performance obligations will be satisfied subsequent to the balance sheet date.
Refer Notes 1.5a and 2.16 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements |
Principal Audit Procedures
We assessed the Group’s process
to identify the impact of adoption of the new revenue accounting standard.
Our audit approach consisted testing
of the design and operating effectiveness of the internal controls and substantive testing as follows:
·
Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to implementation
of the new revenue accounting standard.
·
Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts, and tested the
operating effectiveness of the internal control, relating to identification of the distinct performance obligations and determination
of transaction price. We carried out a combination of procedures involving enquiry and observation, reperformance and inspection
of evidence in respect of operation of these controls.
·
Tested the relevant information technology systems’ access
and change management controls relating to contracts and related information used in recording and disclosing revenue in accordance
with the new revenue accounting standard.
·
Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts and performed
the following procedures:
•
Read, analysed and identified the distinct performance obligations
in these contracts.
•
Compared these performance obligations with that identified and
recorded by the Group.
•
Considered the terms of the contracts to determine the transaction
price including any variable consideration to verify the transaction price used to compute revenue and to test the basis of estimation
of the variable consideration.
•
Samples in respect of revenue recorded for time and material contracts
were tested using a combination of approved time sheets including customer acceptances, subsequent invoicing and historical trend
of collections and disputes.
•
In respect of samples relating to fixed price contracts, progress
towards satisfaction of performance obligation used to compute recorded revenue was verified with actual and estimated efforts
from the time recording and budgeting systems. We also tested the access and change management controls relating to these systems.
•
Sample of revenues disaggregated by type and service offerings was
tested with the performance obligations specified in the underlying contracts.
•
Performed analytical procedures for reasonableness of revenues disclosed
by type and service offerings.
•
We reviewed the collation of information and the logic of the report
generated from the budgeting system used to prepare the disclosure relating to the periods over which the remaining performance
obligations will be satisfied subsequent to the balance sheet date.
|
| 2 |
Accuracy of revenues and onerous
obligations in respect of fixed price contracts involves critical estimates
Estimated effort is a critical estimate
to determine revenues and liability for onerous obligations. This estimate has a high inherent uncertainty as it requires consideration
of progress of the contract, efforts incurred till date and efforts required to complete the remaining contract performance obligations.
Refer Notes 1.5a and 2.16 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements. |
Principal Audit Procedures
Our audit approach was a combination
of test of internal controls and substantive procedures which included the following:
·
Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to recording
of efforts incurred and estimation of efforts required to complete the performance obligations.
·
Tested the access and application controls pertaining to time recording,
allocation and budgeting systems which prevents unauthorised changes to recording of efforts incurred.
·
Selected a sample of contracts and through inspection of evidence
of performance of these controls, tested the operating effectiveness of the internal controls relating to efforts incurred and
estimated.
·
Selected a sample of contracts and performed a retrospective review
of efforts incurred with estimated efforts to identify significant variations and verify whether those variations have been considered
in estimating the remaining efforts to complete the contract.
·
Reviewed a sample of contracts with unbilled revenues to identify
possible delays in achieving milestones, which require change in estimated efforts to complete the remaining performance obligations.
·
Performed analytical procedures and test of details for reasonableness
of incurred and estimated efforts.

Evaluation of uncertain tax positions
The Group has material uncertain tax positions
including matters under dispute which involves significant judgment to determine the possible outcome of these disputes.
Refer Notes 1.5b and 2.22 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements |
Principal Audit Procedures
Obtained details of completed tax assessments
and demands for the year ended March 31, 2019 from management. We involved our internal experts to challenge the management’s
underlying assumptions in estimating the tax provision and the possible outcome of the disputes. Our internal experts also considered
legal precedence and other rulings in evaluating management’s position on these uncertain tax positions. Additionally, we
considered the effect of new information in respect of uncertain tax positions as at April 1, 2018 to evaluate whether any change
was required to management’s position on these uncertainties.
|
| 4 |
Recoverability of Indirect tax receivables
As at March 31, 2019, non-current assets in
respect of withholding tax and others includes Cenvat recoverable amounting to 523 crores which are pending adjudication.
Refer Note 2.9 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.
|
Principal Audit Procedures
We have involved our internal experts to review
the nature of the amounts recoverable, the sustainability and the likelihood of recoverability upon final resolution. |
Information Other than the Consolidated Financial Statements
and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The Company’s Board of Directors
is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management
Discussion and Analysis, Board’s Report including Annexures to Board’s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate
Governance and Shareholder’s Information, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s
report thereon
Our opinion on the consolidated financial
statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated
financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit
or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that
there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this
regard.
Management’s Responsibility
for the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors
is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to preparation of these consolidated financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance, consolidated
total comprehensive income, consolidated changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group in accordance with the Ind
AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India . The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in
the Group are responsible for maintenance of the adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding
the assets of the Group and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate
accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting
records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view and
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error..
In preparing the consolidated financial
statements, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for assessing the Group’s
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern
basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative
but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of
the companies included in the Group are also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for
the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud
or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance,
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with
SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
| · | Identify and assess the risks of material
misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive
to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. |
| · | Obtain an understanding of internal financial
controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i)
of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company and its subsidiary companies which are companies
incorporated in India, has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
|
| · | Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. |
| · | Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s
use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related
to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. If we conclude
that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures
in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based
on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the
Group to cease to continue as a going concern. |
| · | Evaluate the overall presentation, structure
and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements
represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
| · | Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence
regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated
financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements
of such entities included in the consolidated financial statements. |
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements
in the consolidated financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a
reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative
factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect
of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with
governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including
any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance
with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them
all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those
charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements
of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law
or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter
should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh
the public interest benefits of such communication.

Requirements
| 1. | As required by Section 143(3) of the Act,

ANNEXURE “A” TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S
REPORT
(Referred to in paragraph 1 (f) under
‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’ section of our report to the Members of Infosys Limited of even
date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls
Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)
In conjunction with our audit of the
consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended March 31, 2019, we have audited the internal financial
controls over financial reporting of INFOSYS LIMITED (hereinafter referred to as “Company”) and its subsidiary
companies, which are companies incorporated in India, as of that date.
Management’s Responsibility for Internal
Financial Controls
The Board of Directors of the Company
and its subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal
financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the respective Companies considering
the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial
Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ the ICAI”). These responsibilities include the
design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the
orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the respective company’s policies, the safeguarding
of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and
the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the internal financial controls over financial reporting of the Company and its subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated
in India, based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls
Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards
on Auditing, prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial
controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and
maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures
to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating
effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal
financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the
design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s
judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error.
We believe that the audit evidence we
have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial controls system
over financial reporting of the Company and its subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated in India.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial
Reporting
A company’s internal financial
control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to
the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being
made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls
Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of
internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of
controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the
internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control
over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our
information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company and its subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated
in India, have, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal
financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2019, based on the internal control over
financial reporting criteria established by the respective companies considering the essential components of internal control stated
in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India.

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
Accounting policy
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method,
whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past
or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows.
The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. The Group considers all highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

INFOSYS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
1. Overview
1.1 Company overview
Infosys Limited ('the Company' or Infosys) is
a leading provider of consulting, technology, outsourcing and next-generation digital services, enabling clients to execute strategies
for their digital transformation. Infosys strategic objective is to build a sustainable organization that remains relevant to the
agenda of clients, while creating growth opportunities for employees and generating profitable returns for investors. Infosys strategy
is to be a navigator for our clients as they ideate, plan and execute on their journey to a digital future.
Infosys together with its subsidiaries and controlled trusts is herein after referred to as 'the Group'.
The Company is a public limited company incorporated
and domiciled in India and has its registered office at Electronics city, Hosur Road, Bengaluru 560100, Karnataka, India. The Company
has its primary listings on the BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The Company’s American Depositary
Shares (ADS) representing equity shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
Further, the Company's ADS were also listed on the Euronext London and Euronext Paris. On July 5, 2018, the Company voluntarily
delisted its ADS from the said exchanges due to low average daily trading volume of its ADS on these exchanges.
The Group's consolidated financial statements
are approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on April 12, 2019.
1.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements
These consolidated financial statements are
prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS), under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except
for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ('the Act') (to
the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The Ind AS are prescribed under
Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment
rules issued thereafter.
Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision
to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
As the year figures are taken from the source
and rounded to the nearest digits, the figures reported for the previous quarters might not always add up to the year-end figures
reported in this statement.
1.3 Basis of consolidation
Infosys consolidates entities which it owns
or controls. The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company, its controlled trusts and
its subsidiaries, as disclosed in Note no. 2.23. Control exists when the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has rights,
to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power over the
entity. Power is demonstrated through existing rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which significantly
affect the entity's returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date control commences until the date control ceases.
The financial statements of the Group Companies
are consolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-group balances and transactions including unrealized gain / loss from such transactions
are eliminated upon consolidation. These financial statements are prepared by applying uniform accounting policies in use at the
Group. Non-controlling interests which represent part of the net profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries that are not, directly
or indirectly, owned or controlled by the Company, are excluded.
1.4 Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of the financial statements
in conformity with Ind AS requires the management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions. These estimates, judgements and
assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the period. Application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving complex and subjective judgements
and the use of assumptions in these financial statements have been disclosed in Note no. 1.5. Accounting estimates could change
from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management
becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the financial statements
in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial
statements.
1.5 Critical accounting estimates
a. Revenue recognition
The group uses the percentage-of-completion
method in accounting for its fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the group to estimate the
efforts or costs expended to date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended. Efforts or costs expended have
been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity.
Further, the Group uses significant judgements
while determining the transaction price allocated to performance obligations using the expected cost plus margin approach.
Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on
uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates
at the reporting date.
b. Income taxes
The Company's two major tax jurisdictions are
India and the U.S., though the Company also files tax returns in other overseas jurisdictions. Significant judgements are involved
in determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions. Also
refer to Note no. 2.15 and 2.22
In assessing the realizability of deferred income
tax assets, management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate
realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected
future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and
projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, management believes
that the group will realize the benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered
realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are
reduced.
c. Business combinations and intangible assets
Business combinations are accounted for using
Ind AS 103, Business Combinations. Ind AS 103 requires the identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration to be fair
valued in order to ascertain the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree.
Significant estimates are required to be made in determining the value of contingent consideration and intangible assets. These
valuations are conducted by independent valuation experts (Refer to Note no 2.1 and 2.3).
d. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment represent a significant
proportion of the asset base of the Group. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate
of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual
values of Group's assets are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at
each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events,
which may impact their life, such as changes in technology (Refer to Note no 2.2).
e. Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual
basis and whenever there is an indication that the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGUs) is less than its carrying
amount based on a number of factors including operating results, business plans, future cash flows and economic conditions. The
recoverable amount of CGUs is determined based on higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost to sell. The goodwill impairment
test is performed at the level of the CGU or groups of cash-generating units which are benefiting from the synergies of the acquisition
and which represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Market related information and estimates are used to determine the recoverable amount. Key assumptions on which management has
based its determination of recoverable amount include estimated long term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimated
operating margins. Cash flow projections take into account past experience and represent management’s best estimate about
future developments (Refer to Note no 2.3).
f. Non-current assets and Disposal Group
held for sale
Assets and liabilities of Disposal Groups held
for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The determination of fair value less costs
to sell includes use of management estimates and assumptions. The fair value of the Disposal Groups have been estimated using valuation
techniques including income and market approach which includes unobservable inputs.
Non-current assets and Disposal Group that ceases to be classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of carrying
amount before the Non-current asset and Disposal Group was classified as held for sale adjusted for any depreciation/ amortization
and its recoverable amount at the date when the Disposal Group no longer meets the " Held for sale" criteria. Recoverable
amounts of assets reclassified from held for sale have been estimated using management’s assumptions which consist of significant
unobservable inputs (Refer to Note no 2.1.2).
1.6 Recent accounting pronouncements
Ind AS 116 Leases : On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified Ind AS 116, Leases. Ind AS 116 will replace
the existing leases Standard, Ind AS 17 Leases, and related Interpretations. The Standard sets out the principles for the recognition,
measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract i.e., the lessee and the lessor. Ind AS 116
introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term
of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. Currently, operating lease expenses are charged to the statement
of profit & loss. The Standard also contains enhanced disclosure requirements for lessees. Ind AS 116 substantially carries
forward the lessor accounting requirements in Ind AS 17.
The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 116 is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2019. The standard permits two
possible methods of transition:
•
| | Full retrospective – Retrospectively to each prior period presented applying
Ind AS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors
|
| • | | Modified retrospective – Retrospectively, with the cumulative effect of initially applying the Standard recognized
at the date of initial application either by: |
Under modified retrospective approach, the lessee
records the lease liability as the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the incremental borrowing rate
and the right of use asset either as:
•
| | Its carrying amount as if the standard had been applied since the commencement date, but discounted at lessee’s incremental
borrowing rate at the date of initial application or
|
| | | |
| • | | An amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments related to that
lease recognized under Ind AS 17 immediately before the date of initial application
Certain practical expedients are available under both the methods. |
On completion of evaluation of the effect of
adoption of Ind AS 116, the Group is proposing to use the ‘Modified Retrospective Approach’ for transitioning to Ind
AS 116, and take the cumulative adjustment to retained earnings, on the date of initial application (April 1, 2019). Accordingly,
comparatives for the year ended March 31, 2019 will not be retrospectively adjusted. The Group has elected certain available practical
expedients on transition.
The effect of adoption as on transition date would majorly result in an increase in right of use asset approximately by 2,300
crore, net investment in
sub-lease approximately by 440 crore and an increase in lease liability approximately
by 3,050 crore.
Ind AS 12 Appendix C, Uncertainty over Income
Tax Treatments : On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified Ind AS 12 Appendix C, Uncertainty over Income
Tax Treatments which is to be applied while performing the determination of taxable profit (or loss), tax bases, unused tax losses,
unused tax credits and tax rates, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments under Ind AS 12. According to the appendix,
companies need to determine the probability of the relevant tax authority accepting each tax treatment, or group of tax treatments,
that the companies have used or plan to use in their income tax filing which has to be considered to compute the most likely amount
or the expected value of the tax treatment when determining taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax
credits and tax rates.
The standard permits two possible methods of transition - i) Full retrospective approach – Under this approach, Appendix
C will be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with Ind AS 8 – Accounting Policies,
Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, without using hindsight and ii) Retrospectively with cumulative effect of initially
applying Appendix C recognized by adjusting equity on initial application, without adjusting comparatives.
The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 12 Appendix C is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2019. The Group will adopt
the standard on April 1, 2019 and has decided to adjust the cumulative effect in equity on the date of initial application i.e.
April 1, 2019 without adjusting comparatives.
The effect on adoption of Ind AS 12 Appendix C would be insignificant in the consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to Ind AS 12 – Income taxes
: On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued amendments to the guidance in Ind AS 12, ‘Income Taxes’,
in connection with accounting for dividend distribution taxes.
The amendment clarifies that an entity shall recognise the income tax consequences of dividends in profit or loss, other comprehensive
income or equity according to where the entity originally recognised those past transactions or events.
Effective date for application of this amendment is annual period beginning on or after April 1, 2019. The Group is currently evaluating
the effect of this amendment on the consolidated financial statements.
Amendment to Ind AS 19 – plan amendment,
curtailment or settlement- On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued amendments to Ind AS 19, ‘Employee
Benefits’, in connection with accounting for plan amendments, curtailments and settlements.
The amendments require an entity:
•
| | to use updated assumptions to determine current service cost and net interest
for the remainder of the period after a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement; and |
| | | |
| • | | to recognise in profit or loss as part of past service cost, or a gain or loss on settlement, any reduction in a surplus,
even if that surplus was not previously recognised because of the impact of the asset ceiling. |
Effective date for application of this amendment is annual period beginning on or after 1 April 2019. The Group does not have any
impact on account of this amendment.
2.1 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND DISPOSAL GROUP HELD FOR SALE
2.1.1 Business combinations
Accounting policy
Business combinations have been accounted for
using the acquisition method under the provisions of Ind AS 103, Business Combinations.
The cost of an acquisition is measured at the
fair value of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of acquisition,
which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. The cost of acquisition also includes the fair value of any contingent
consideration. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured
initially at their fair value on the date of acquisition.
The interest of non-controlling shareholders
is initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s
identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition,
the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling
interests’ share of subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries.
Business combinations between entities under
common control is accounted for at carrying value.
Transaction costs that the Group incurs in connection
with a business combination such as finder’s fees, legal fees, due diligence fees, and other professional and consulting
fees are expensed as incurred.

2.1.2. Disposal group held for sale
Accounting policy
Non-current assets and Disposal Group are classified
as held for sale if their carrying amount is intended to be recovered principally through sale rather than through continuing use.
The condition for classification of held for sale is met when the non-current asset or the Disposal Group is available for immediate
sale and the same is highly probable of being completed within one year from the date of classification as held for sale. Non-current
assets and Disposal Group held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Non-current
assets and Disposal Group that ceases to be classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of carrying amount before
the non-current asset and Disposal Group was classified as held for sale adjusted for any depreciation/ amortization and its recoverable
amount at the date when the Disposal Group no longer meets the "Held for sale" criteria.
In the three months ended March 2018, the Company
had initiated identification and evaluation of potential buyers for its subsidiaries, Kallidus and Skava (together referred to
as "Skava”) and Panaya, collectively referred to as the “Disposal Group”. The Disposal Group was classified
and presented separately as “held for sale” and was carried at the lower of carrying value and fair value. Consequently,
a reduction in the fair value of Disposal Group held for sale amounting to 118 crore in respect of Panaya had been recognized
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss for the three months and year ended March 31, 2018. During the three months ended
June 30, 2018, on remeasurement, including consideration of progress in negotiations on offers from prospective buyers for Panaya,
the Company has recorded a reduction in the fair value of Disposal Group held for sale amounting to 270 crore in respect of Panaya.
During the three months ended December 31, 2018,
based on evaluation of proposals received and progress of negotiations with potential buyers, the Company concluded that the Disposal
Group does not meet the criteria for “Held for Sale’ classification because it is no longer highly probable that sale
would be consummated by March 31, 2019 ( twelve months from date of initial classification as “held for sale”). Accordingly,
in accordance with Ind AS 105 -" Non current Assets held for Sale and Discontinued Operations", the assets and liabilities
of Panaya and Skava have been included on a line by line basis in the consolidated financial statements for the period and as at
December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019.
On reclassification from “Held for sale”, the assets of Panaya and Skava have been remeasured in the quarter ended
December 31, 2018 at the lower of cost and recoverable amount resulting in recognition of additional depreciation and amortization
expenses of 88 crore and an adjustment in respect of excess of carrying amount over recoverable amount on reclassification from
"Held for Sale" of 451 crore (comprising of 358 crore towards goodwill and 93 crore towards value of customer relationships)
in respect of Skava in the consolidated statement of profit and loss for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2018.
2.2 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Accounting policy
Property, plant and equipment are stated at
cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the
property, plant and equipment are ready for use, as intended by management. The Group depreciates property, plant and equipment
over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:
| Buildings (1) |
22-25 years |
| Plant and machinery (1)(2) |
5 years |
| Office equipment |
5 years |
| Computer equipment (1) |
3-5 years |
| Furniture and fixtures (1) |
5 years |
| Vehicles(1) |
5 years |
| Leasehold improvements |
Over lease term |
| (1) | | Based on technical evaluation, the management believes that the useful lives as
given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets. Hence, the useful lives for these assets
is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013. |
(2) Includes Solar plant with
a useful life of 20 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual
values are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end.
Advances paid towards the acquisition of property,
plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets and
the cost of assets not ready to use before such date are disclosed under ‘Capital work-in-progress’. Subsequent expenditures
relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with
these will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in
the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss when incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from
the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset and the resultant gains or losses are recognized in the Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss.
Impairment
Property, plant and equipment are evaluated
for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For
the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use)
is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those
from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired,
the impairment to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of
the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined (net of any accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

2.3 GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
2.3.1 Goodwill
Accounting policy
Goodwill represents the cost of business acquisition
in excess of the Group's interest in the net fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree.
When the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired exceeds the cost of business
acquisition, the bargain purchase excess is recognized after reassessing the fair value of net assets acquired in the capital reserve.
Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual
basis and whenever there is an indication that goodwill may be impaired, relying on a number of factors including operating results,
business plans and future cash flows. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated
to the Group's cash generating units (CGU) or groups of CGU’s expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the business
combination. A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the
cash inflows from other assets or group of assets. Impairment occurs when the carrying amount of a CGU including the goodwill,
exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost
to sell and its value-in-use. Value-in-use is the present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from the CGU.
Total impairment loss of a CGU is allocated
first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro-rata on the basis
of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU. An impairment loss on goodwill is recognized in net profit in the Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss and is not reversed in the subsequent period.
Following is a summary of changes in the carrying
amount of goodwill:

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill
acquired in a business combination is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGUs, which benefit from the synergies of the acquisition.
The chief operating decision maker reviews the goodwill for any impairment at the operating segment level, which is represented
through groups of CGUs.
During the three months ended June 30, 2018,
the Group internally reorganized some of its business segments to deepen customer relationships, improve focus of sales investments
and increase management oversight. Consequent to the internal reorganization, there were changes in the business segments based
on “Management approach” as defined under Ind AS 108, Operating Segments.(Refer Note 2.24). Accordingly the goodwill
has been allocated to the new operating segments as at March 31, 2019.
The following table presents the allocation
of goodwill to operating segments as at March 31, 2019 :
(In crore)
| Segment |

The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher
of its fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use. The fair value of a CGU is determined based on the market capitalization.
The value-in-use is determined based on specific calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections over a period of five
years. An average of the range of each assumption used is mentioned below. As at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the estimated
recoverable amount of the CGU exceeded its carrying amount. The key assumptions used for the calculations are as follows:
(in %)
| |
As at March 31, |
| |
2019 |
2018 |
| Long term growth rate |
8-10 |
8-10 |
| Operating margins |
17-20 |
17-20 |
| Discount rate |
12.5 |
13.5 |
The above discount rate is based on the Weighted
Average Cost of Capital (WACC) of the Company. Management believes that any reasonable possible changes in the key assumptions
would not cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit.
2.3.2 Other intangible assets
Accounting policy
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated
amortization and impairment. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line
basis, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on
a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors (such as the stability
of the industry, and known technological advances). Amortization methods and useful lives are reviewed periodically including at
each financial year end.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Software
product development costs are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated,
future economic benefits are probable, the Group has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the
costs can be measured reliably. The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labour, overhead costs
that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use.
Impairment
Intangible assets are evaluated for recoverability
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an
individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In
such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired,
the impairment to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of
the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

of acquired intangible assets for the year ended March 31, 2019:

Deferred contract costs are upfront costs incurred
for the contract and are amortized over the term of the contract. Withholding taxes and others primarily consist of input tax credits
and Cenvat recoverable from Government of India. Cenvat recoverable includes 523 crore which are pending adjudication. The Group
expects these amounts to be sustainable on adjudication and recoverable on final resolution.
| # | | Classified as non financial asset as the contractual right to consideration is dependent
on completion of contractual milestones. |
2.10 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Accounting policy
2.10.1 Initial recognition
The Group recognizes financial assets and financial
liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized
at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, that are not at
fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial
assets are accounted for at trade date.
2.10.2 Subsequent measurement
a. Non-derivative financial instruments
(i) Financial assets carried at amortized
cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at
amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash
flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal
and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through
other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at
fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting
contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates
to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Group has made an irrevocable
election for its investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other
comprehensive income based on its business model.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through
profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in
any of the above categories is subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried
at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration recognized in a business combination
which is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from
the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate the fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
b. Derivative financial instruments
The Group holds derivative financial instruments
such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures.
The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank.
(i) Financial assets or financial liabilities,
at fair value through profit or loss.
This category has derivative financial assets
or liabilities which are not designated as hedges.
Although the Group believes that these derivatives
constitute hedges from an economic perspective, they may not qualify for hedge accounting under Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
Any derivative that is either not designated as hedge, or is so designated but is ineffective as per Ind AS 109, is categorized
as a financial asset or financial liability, at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized
initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in net profit in the consolidated Statement of Profit
and Loss when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, these derivatives are measured at fair value through profit or loss
and the resulting exchange gains or losses are included in other income. Assets/ liabilities in this category are presented as
current assets/current liabilities if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the
Balance Sheet date.
(ii) Cash flow hedge
The Group designates certain foreign exchange
forward and options contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast
cash transactions.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative
is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the cash flow hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes
in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in the net profit in the consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively.
If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized
in cash flow hedging reserve till the period the hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedging reserve until the forecasted
transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the net
profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted
transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount accumulated in cash flow hedging reserve is reclassified to net profit
in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
c. Share capital and treasury shares
(i) Ordinary Shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental
costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares and share options and buyback of ordinary shares are recognized
as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
(ii) Treasury Shares
When any entity within the Group purchases the
Company's ordinary shares, the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost, is presented as a deduction
from total equity, until they are cancelled, sold or reissued. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount
received is recognized as an increase in equity, and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is transferred to / from
share premium.
2.10.3 Derecognition of financial instruments
The Group derecognizes a financial asset when
the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies
for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Group's
Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
2.10.4 Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial
instruments, the Group uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each
reporting date. The methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices
and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually
be realized.
Refer to table 'Financial instruments by category'
below for the disclosure on carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets and liabilities
maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts approximates
fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.
2.10.5 Impairment
The Group recognizes loss allowances using the
expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets and unbilled revenue which are not fair valued through profit or loss.
Loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal
to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets, ECLs are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been
a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of
ECLs (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised
is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, tax free
bonds and non-convertible debentures of 1,797 crore were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 of fair value hierarchy, since
these were valued based on quoted price and 850 crore was transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 of fair value hierarchy, since
these were valued based on market observable inputs.
A one percentage point change in the unobservable
inputs used in fair valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities does not have a significant impact in its value.
Financial risk management
Financial risk factors
The Group's activities expose it to a variety
of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of
financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The primary market risk to the Group
is foreign exchange risk. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange related risk exposures.
The Group's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer and the concentration
of risk from the top few customers.
Market risk
The Group operates internationally and a major
portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk through
its sales and services in the United States and elsewhere, and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies.
The Group holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of
changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures. The exchange rate between the Indian rupee and foreign currencies has
changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Group’s
operations are adversely affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies.

Derivative financial instruments
The Group holds derivative financial instruments
such as foreign currency forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures.
The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank. These derivative financial instruments are valued based on quoted prices
for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

currency forward and option contracts are as follows:

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the group
has designated certain foreign exchange forward and option contracts as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange
exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions. The related hedge transactions for balance in cash flow hedges as at March
31, 2019 are expected to occur and reclassified to the statement of profit or loss within 3 months.
Hedge effectiveness is determined at the inception
of the hedge relationship, and through periodic prospective effectiveness assessments to ensure that an economic relationship exists
between the hedged item and hedging instrument, including whether the hedging instrument is expected to offset changes in cash
flows of hedged items.
If the hedge ratio for risk management purposes
is no longer optimal but the risk management objective remains unchanged and the hedge continues to qualify for hedge accounting,
the hedge relationship will be rebalanced by adjusting either the volume of the hedging instrument or the volume of the hedged
item so that the hedge ratio aligns with the ratio used for risk management purposes. Any hedge ineffectiveness is calculated and
accounted for in the statement of profit or loss at the time of the hedge relationship rebalancing.

Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of default on
its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date
is primarily from trade receivables amounting to 14,827 crore and 13,142 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March 31,
2018, respectively and unbilled revenues amounting to 5,374 crore and 4,261 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March
31, 2018, respectively. Trade receivables and unbilled revenues are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from
customers primarily located in the United States. Credit risk has always been managed by the Group through credit approvals, establishing
credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Group grants credit terms in the normal
course of business. The Group uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain. The Group uses a provision
matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables and unbilled revenues. The provision matrix takes into
account available external and internal credit risk factors such as credit default swap quotes, credit ratings from international
credit rating agencies and the Group's historical experience for customers.
The following table gives details in respect
of percentage of revenues generated from top customer and top ten customers:

Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is
limited as we generally invest in deposits with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international
and domestic credit rating agencies. Investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units, fixed maturity plan
securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, quoted bonds issued by government and quasi-government organizations and
non convertible debentures.
Liquidity risk
The Group's principal sources of liquidity are
cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Group has no outstanding borrowings. The Group
believes that the working capital is sufficient to meet its current requirements.
As at March 31, 2019, the Group had a working
capital of 34,240 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 19,568 crore and current investments of 6,627
crore. As at March 31, 2018, the Group had a working capital of 34,176 crore including cash and cash equivalents of 19,818
crore and current investments of 6,407 crore.
As at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the
outstanding compensated absences were 1,663 crore and 1,469 crore, respectively, which have been substantially funded.
Accordingly no liquidity risk is perceived.

The Company has only one class of shares referred
to as equity shares having a par value of 5/-. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share. The equity
shares represented by American Depositary Shares (ADS) carry similar rights to voting and dividends as the other equity shares.
Each ADS represents one underlying equity share.
In the event of liquidation of the Company,
the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive any of the remaining assets of the Company in proportion to the number
of equity shares held by the shareholders, after distribution of all preferential amounts. However, no such preferential amounts
exist currently, other than the amounts held by irrevocable controlled trusts. For irrevocable controlled trusts, the corpus would
be settled in favour of the beneficiaries.
In the period of five years immediately preceding
March 31, 2019:
Bonus Issue
The Company has allotted 2,18,41,91,490 fully paid up equity shares (including treasury shares) of face value 5/- each during
the three months ended September 30, 2018 pursuant to a bonus issue approved by the shareholders through postal ballot. Record
date fixed by the Board of Directors was September 5, 2018. The bonus shares were issued by capitalization of profits transferred
from general reserve. Bonus share of one equity share for every equity share held, and a bonus issue, viz., a stock dividend of
one American Depositary Share (ADS) for every ADS held, respectively, has been allotted. Consequently, the ratio of equity shares
underlying the ADSs held by an American Depositary Receipt holder remains unchanged. Options granted under the stock option plan
have been adjusted for bonus shares.
The Company has allotted 1,14,84,72,332 and
57,42,36,166 fully paid-up shares of face value 5/- each during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, pursuant
to bonus issue approved by the shareholders through postal ballot. For both the bonus issues, bonus share of one equity share for
every equity share held, and a stock dividend of one ADS for every ADS held, respectively, has been allotted. Consequently, the
ratio of equity shares underlying the ADSs held by an American Depositary Receipt holder remains unchanged. Options granted under
the restricted stock unit plan (RSU) have been adjusted for bonus shares.
The bonus shares once allotted shall rank pari
passu in all respects and carry the same rights as the existing equity shareholders and shall be entitled to participate in full,
in any dividend and other corporate action, recommended and declared after the new equity shares are allotted.
Update on capital allocation policy and buyback
In line with the capital allocation policy announced
in April 2018, the Board, in its meeting held on January 11, 2019, approved the following :
(a) Declared a special dividend of 4/- per equity share;
(b) Recommended buyback of Equity Shares from the open market route through Indian stock exchanges of up to 8,260 crore (Maximum
Buyback Size) at a price not exceeding 800/- per share (Maximum Buyback Price) subject to shareholders' approval by way of
Postal Ballot. After the execution of the above, along with the special dividend (including dividend distribution tax) of 2,633
crore ($386 million) already paid in June 2018, the Company would complete the distribution of 13,000 crore, which was announced
as part of its capital allocation policy in April 2018.
The shareholders approved the proposal of buyback
of Equity Shares recommended by its Board of Directors in its meeting held on January 11, 2019 through the postal ballot that concluded
on March 12, 2019. At the Maximum buyback price of 800/- per equity share and the Maximum buyback size of 8,260 crore
the indicative maximum number of Equity shares bought back would be 10,32,50,000 Equity Shares (Maximum buyback shares) comprising
approximately 2.36% of the paid-up equity share capital of the Company as of March 12, 2019 (the date of conclusion of postal ballot
for approval for buyback).
The buyback was offered to all eligible equity shareholders of the Company (other than the Promoters, the Promoter Group and Persons
in Control of the Company) under the open market route through the stock exchange. The Company will fund the buyback from its free
reserves. The buyback of equity shares through the stock exchange commenced on March 20, 2019 and is expected to be completed by
September 2019. During the year ended March 31, 2019, 1,26,52,000 equity shares were purchased from the stock exchange which includes
18,18,000 shares which have been purchased but not extinguished as of March 31, 2019 and 36,36,000 shares which have been purchased
but have not been settled and therefore not extinguished as of March 31, 2019. In accordance with section 69 of the Companies Act,
2013, during the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company has created ‘Capital Redemption Reserve’ of 5 crore equal
to the nominal value of the shares bought back as an appropriation from general reserve.
The Board, at its meeting on August 19, 2017,
approved a proposal for the Company to buyback its fully paid-up equity shares of face value of 5/- each from the eligible
equity shareholders of the Company for an amount not exceeding 13,000 crore. The shareholders approved the said proposal
of buyback of Equity Shares through the postal ballot that concluded on October 7, 2017. The Buyback offer comprised a purchase
of 11,30,43,478 Equity Shares aggregating 4.92% of the paid-up equity share capital of the Company at a price of 1,150/- per
Equity share. The buyback was offered to all eligible equity shareholders (including those who became equity shareholders as on
the Record date by cancelling American Depository Shares and withdrawing underlying Equity shares) of the Company as on the Record
Date (i.e November 1, 2017) on a proportionate basis through the "Tender offer" route. The Company concluded the buyback
procedures on December 27, 2017 and 11,30,43,478 equity shares were extinguished. The Company has utilized its securities premium
and general reserve for the buyback of its shares. In accordance with Section 69 of the Companies Act, 2013, the Company has created
a Capital Redemption Reserve of 56 crore equal to the nominal value of the shares bought back as an appropriation from the
general reserve during the year ended March 31, 2018.
The Company’s objective when managing
capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximize
shareholder value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividend
payment, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or buy back issued shares. As at March 31, 2019, the Company has only
one class of equity shares and has no debt. Consequent to the above capital structure there are no externally imposed capital requirements.

a liability on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration

2.14 PROVISIONS
Accounting policy
A provision is recognized if, as a result of
a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that is reasonably estimable, and it is probable that an
outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future
cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the
liability.
a. Post sales client support
The Group provides its clients with a fixed-period
post sales support for corrections of errors and support on all its fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts. Costs associated with
such support services are accrued at the time related revenues are recorded and included in Consolidated Statement of Profit and
Loss. The Group estimates such costs based on historical experience and estimates are reviewed on a periodic basis for any material
changes in assumptions and likelihood of occurrence.
b. Onerous contracts
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized
when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting the future
obligations under the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating
the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established the Group recognizes
any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

2.15 INCOME TAXES
Accounting policy
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred
income tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent
that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in other comprehensive income. Current income
tax for current and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using
the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred income tax assets
and liabilities are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts in the financial statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill
or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit
or loss at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that
it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected
to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
of changes in tax rates on deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes
the enactment or the substantive enactment date. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that
future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Deferred
income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of subsidiaries and branches where it is expected that the earnings
of the subsidiary or branch will not be distributed in the foreseeable future. The Group offsets current tax assets and current
tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle
on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The income tax provision for the interim period
is made based on the best estimate of the annual average tax rate expected to be applicable for the full financial year. Tax benefits
of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are credited to securities
premium.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the
Company entered into Advance Pricing Agreement (APA) in overseas jurisdictions resulting in a reversal of income tax expense of
94 crore which pertained to prior periods.
In December 2017, the Company had concluded
an Advance Pricing Agreement (“APA”) with the US Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for the US branch covering
the years ending March 2011 to March 2021. Under the APA, the Company and the IRS have agreed on the methodology to allocate revenues
and compute the taxable income of the Company’s US Branch operations. In accordance with the APA, the company had reversed
income tax expense provision of $225 million (1,432 crore) which pertained to previous periods which are no longer required.
The Company had to pay an adjusted amount of $223 million (approximately 1,424 crore) due to the difference between the
taxes payable for prior periods as per the APA and the actual taxes paid for such periods. The company has paid $215 million (1,455
crore).
Further, the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (H.R. 1)” was signed into law on December 22, 2017 (“US Tax Reforms”).
The US tax reforms has reduced federal tax rates from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 amongst other measures.
Income tax expense for the year ended March
31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 includes reversals (net of provisions) of 129 crore and 291 crore respectively. These
reversals pertain to prior periods on account of adjudication of certain disputed matters in favor of the company across various
jurisdictions.

The applicable Indian corporate statutory tax
rate for the year ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 is 34.94% and 34.61%, respectively. The increase in the corporate statutory
tax rate to 34.94% is consequent to changes made in the Finance Act, 2018.
The foreign tax expense is due to income taxes
payable overseas principally in the United States. In India, the Group has benefited from certain tax incentives that the Government
of India had provided for export of software and services from the units registered under the Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Act,
2005. SEZ units which began the provision of services on or after April 1, 2005 are eligible for a deduction of 100% of profits
or gains derived from the export of services for the first five years from the financial year in which the unit commenced the provision
of services and 50% of such profits or gains for further five years. Up to 50% of such profits or gains is also available for a
further five years subject to creation of a Special Economic Zone re-Investment Reserve out of the profit of the eligible SEZ units
and utilization of such reserve by the Group for acquiring new plant and machinery for the purpose of its business as per the provisions
of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Entire deferred income tax for the year ended
March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 relates to origination and reversal of temporary differences except for a credit of 155 crore
(on account of US Tax Reforms explained above), for year ended March 31, 2018.
During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company
received 846 crore as dividend from its majority owned subsidiary. Dividend distribution tax paid by the subsidiary on such dividend
has been reduced as credit against dividend distribution tax payable by Infosys. Accordingly, the Group has recorded a charge of
172 crore as income tax expense during the year ended March 31, 2018.
Infosys is subject to a 15% BPT in the U.S.
to the extent its U.S. branch's net profit during the year is greater than the increase in the net assets of the U.S. branch during
the year, computed in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code. As at March 31, 2019, Infosys' U.S. branch net assets amounted
to approximately 5,196 crore. As at March 31, 2019, the Company has a deferred tax liability for branch profit tax
of 201 crore (net of credits), as the Company estimates that these branch profits are expected to be distributed
in the foreseeable future.
Other income for the year ended March 31, 2019
and March 31, 2018 includes interest on income tax refund of 51 crore and 262 crore, respectively.
Deferred income tax liabilities have not been
recognized on temporary differences amounting to 6,007 crore and 5,045 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018,
respectively, associated with investments in subsidiaries and branches as it is probable that the temporary differences will not
reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets have not been recognized
on accumulated losses of 2,624 crore and 1,936 crore as at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively, as it
is probable that future taxable profit will be not available against which the unused tax losses can be utilized in the foreseeable
future. The balance as at March 31, 2018 excludes the accumulated losses of Disposal Groups classified as held for sale. (Refer
note 2.1.2)

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
have been offset wherever the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities
and where the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.
In assessing the reliability of deferred income
tax assets, the management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate
realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
the temporary differences become deductible. The management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities,
projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable
income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, management
believes that the Group will realize the benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets
considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward
period are reduced.
2.16 Revenue from operations
Accounting policy
The Group derives revenues primarily from business
IT services comprising of software development and related services, consulting and package implementation and from the licensing
of software products and platforms across our core and digital offerings (“together called as software related services”).
Effective April 1, 2018, the Group adopted Ind
AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the cumulative catch-up transition method, applied to contracts
that were not completed as at April 1, 2018. In accordance with the cumulative catch-up transition method, the comparatives have
not been retrospectively adjusted. The following is a summary of new and/or revised significant accounting policies related to
revenue recognition. Refer Note 1 “Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report for
the policies in effect for revenue prior to April 1, 2018. The effect on adoption of Ind AS 115 was insignificant.
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control
of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for
those products or services.
Arrangements with customers for software related services are either on a fixed-price, fixed-timeframe or on a time-and-material
basis.
Revenue on time-and-material contracts are recognized as the related services are performed and revenue from the end of the last
invoicing to the reporting date is recognized as unbilled revenue. Revenue from fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts, where the
performance obligations are satisfied over time and where there is no uncertainty as to measurement or collectability of consideration,
is recognized as per the percentage-of-completion method. When there is uncertainty as to measurement or ultimate collectability,
revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress
towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably
over the term of the underlying maintenance arrangement.
Revenues in excess of invoicing are classified
as contract assets (which we refer as unbilled revenue) while invoicing in excess of revenues are classified as contract liabilities
(which we refer to as unearned revenues).
In arrangements for software development and
related services and maintenance services, the Group has applied the guidance in Ind AS 115, Revenue from contract with customer,
by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct performance obligation. The arrangements with customers generally
meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as distinct performance obligations. For allocating
the transaction price, the Group has measured the revenue in respect of each performance obligation of a contract at its relative
standalone selling price. The price that is regularly charged for an item when sold separately is the best evidence of its standalone
selling price. In cases where the Group is unable to determine the standalone selling price, the Group uses the expected cost plus
margin approach in estimating the standalone selling price. For software development and related services, the performance obligations
are satisfied as and when the services are rendered since the customer generally obtains control of the work as it progresses.
Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains
a “right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the license is made available to the customer. Revenue from
licenses where the customer obtains a “right to access” is recognized over the access period. Arrangements to deliver
software products generally have three elements: license, implementation and Annual Technical Services (ATS). The Group has applied
the principles under Ind AS 115 to account for revenues from these performance obligations. When implementation services are provided
in conjunction with the licensing arrangement and the license and implementation have been identified as two separate performance
obligations, the transaction price for such contracts are allocated to each performance obligation of the contract based on their
relative standalone selling prices. In the absence of standalone selling price for implementation, the performance obligation is
estimated using the expected cost plus margin approach. Where the license is required to be substantially customized as part of
the implementation service the entire arrangement fee for license and implementation is considered to be a single performance obligation
and the revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method as the implementation is performed. Revenue from client
training, support and other services arising due to the sale of software products is recognized as the performance obligations
are satisfied. ATS revenue is recognized ratably over the period in which the services are rendered.
The Group accounts for volume discounts and
pricing incentives to customers as a reduction of revenue based on the ratable allocation of the discounts/ incentives to each
of the underlying performance obligation that corresponds to the progress by the customer towards earning the discount/ incentive.
Also, when the level of discount varies with increases in levels of revenue transactions, the company recognizes the liability
based on its estimate of the customer's future purchases. If it is probable that the criteria for the discount will not be met,
or if the amount thereof cannot be estimated reliably, then discount is not recognized until the payment is probable and the amount
can be estimated reliably. The Group recognizes changes in the estimated amount of obligations for discounts in the period in which
the change occurs.
Deferred contract costs are incremental costs
of obtaining a contract which are recognised as assets and amortized over the term of the contract.
Contract modifications are accounted for when
additions, deletions or changes are approved either to the contract scope or contract price. The accounting for modifications of
contracts involves assessing whether the services added to an existing contract are distinct and whether the pricing is at the
standalone selling price. Services added that are not distinct are accounted for on a cumulative catch up basis, while those that
are distinct are accounted for prospectively, either as a separate contract, if the additional services are priced at the standalone
selling price, or as a termination of the existing contract and creation of a new contract if not priced at the standalone selling
price.
The Group presents revenues net of indirect
taxes in its statement of Profit and loss.

Digital Services
Digital Services comprise of service and solution
offerings of the Group that enable our clients to transform their businesses. These include offerings that enhance customer experience,
leverage AI-based analytics and big data, engineer digital products and IoT, modernize legacy technology systems, migrate to cloud
applications and implement advanced cyber security systems.
Core Services
Core Services comprise traditional offerings
of the Group that have scaled and industrialized over a number of years. These primarily include application management services,
proprietary application development services, independent validation solutions, product engineering and management, infrastructure
management services, traditional enterprise application implementation, support and integration services.
Products & platforms
The Group also derives revenues from the sale
of products and platforms including Finacle – core banking solution, Edge Suite of products, Infosys Nia - Artificial Intelligence
(AI) platform which applies next-generation AI and machine learning and Infosys McCamish- insurance platform.
Trade Receivables and Contract Balances
The Group classifies the right to consideration
in exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or as unbilled revenue.
A receivable is a right to consideration that
is unconditional upon passage of time. Revenue for time and material contracts are recognised as related service are performed.
Revenue for fixed price maintenance contracts is recognized on a straight line basis over the period of the contract. Revenues
in excess of billings is recorded as unbilled revenue and is classified as a financial asset for these cases as right to consideration
is unconditional upon passage of time.
Revenue recognition for fixed price development contracts is based on percentage of completion method. Invoicing to the clients
is based on milestones as defined in the contract. This would result in the timing of revenue recognition being different from
the timing of billing the customers. Unbilled revenue for fixed price development contracts is classified as non financial asset
as the contractual right to consideration is dependent on completion of contractual milestones.
Invoicing in excess of earnings are classified as unearned revenue.
Trade receivable and unbilled revenues are presented
net of impairment in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
During the year ended March 31, 2019, the company
recognized revenue of 2,237 crore arising from opening unearned revenue as of April 1, 2018.
During the year ended March 31, 2019, 2,685
crore of unbilled revenue pertaining to fixed price development contracts as of April 1, 2018 has been reclassified to Trade receivables
upon billing to customers on completion of milestones.
Performance obligations and remaining performance
obligations
The remaining performance obligation disclosure
provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation
as to when the Group expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. Applying the practical expedient as given in Ind AS 115, the
Group has not disclosed the remaining performance obligation related disclosures for contracts where the revenue recognized corresponds
directly with the value to the customer of the entity's performance completed to date, typically those contracts where invoicing
is on time and material basis. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors,
including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustment for revenue that has not materialized
and adjustments for currency.
The aggregate value of performance obligations
that are completely or partially unsatisfied as at March 31, 2019, other than those meeting the exclusion criteria mentioned above,
is 51,274 crore. Out of this, the Group expects to recognize revenue of around 50% within the next one year and the remaining
thereafter. This includes contracts that can be terminated for convenience without a substantive penalty since, based on current
assessment, the occurrence of the same is expected to be remote.
The impact on account of applying the erstwhile
Ind AS 18 Revenue standard instead of Ind AS 115 Revenue from contract with customers on the financials results of the Group for
the year ended March 31, 2019 and as at March 31, 2019 is insignificant. On account of adoption of Ind AS 115, unbilled revenues
of 3,281 crore as at March 31, 2019 has been considered as a Non financial asset.
2.17 OTHER INCOME, NET
Accounting policy
Other income is comprised primarily of interest
income, dividend income, gain/loss on investment and exchange gain/loss on forward and options contracts and on translation of
other assets and liabilities. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized
when the right to receive payment is established.
Foreign currency
Accounting policy
Functional currency
The functional currency of Infosys, Infosys
BPM, controlled trusts, EdgeVerve and Skava is the Indian rupee. The functional currencies for other subsidiaries are their respective
local currencies. These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees (rounded off to crore; one crore equals ten million).
Transactions and translations
Foreign-currency denominated monetary assets
and liabilities are translated into the relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the Balance Sheet date. The
gains or losses resulting from such translations are included in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. Non-monetary
assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at the exchange
rate prevalent at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in
a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction.
Transaction gains or losses realized upon settlement
of foreign currency transactions are included in determining net profit for the period in which the transaction is settled. Revenue,
expense and cash-flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the relevant functional currencies using the
exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction.
The translation of financial statements of the
foreign subsidiaries to the presentation currency is performed for assets and liabilities using the exchange rate in effect at
the Balance Sheet date and for revenue, expense and cash-flow items using the average exchange rate for the respective periods.
The gains or losses resulting from such translation are included in currency translation reserves under other components of equity.
When a subsidiary is disposed off, in full, the relevant amount is transferred to net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit
and Loss. However when a change in the parent's ownership does not result in loss of control of a subsidiary, such changes are
recorded through equity.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising
on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the exchange
rate in effect at the Balance Sheet date.
Effective April 1, 2018, the Group has adopted
Appendix B to Ind AS 21- Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration which clarifies the date of transaction for the
purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income when an entity has
received or paid advance consideration in a foreign currency. The effect on account of adoption of this amendment was insignificant.
Government grant
The Group recognizes government grants only
when there is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to them shall be complied with, and the grants will be received.
Government grants related to assets are treated as deferred income and are recognized in net profit in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Government grants related to revenue are
recognized on a systematic basis in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss over the periods necessary to match
them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate.

or present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease, whichever is lower. Lease payments under operating
leases are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis in net profit in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss over
the lease term.

2.20 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Accounting policy
Gratuity
The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit
retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees of Infosys and its Indian subsidiaries. The Gratuity Plan provides
a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on
the respective employee's salary and the tenure of employment with the Group.
Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plan
are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit
credit method. The Company fully contributes all ascertained liabilities to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust
(the Trust). In case of Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve, contributions are made to the Infosys BPM Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust and
EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively. Trustees administer contributions made to the Trusts and
contributions are invested in a scheme with the Life Insurance Corporation of India as permitted by Indian law.
The Group recognizes the net obligation of a
defined benefit plan in its Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined
benefit liability/(asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent
periods. The actual return of the portfolio of plan assets, in excess of the yields computed by applying the discount rate used
to measure the defined benefit obligation is recognized in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments is recognized
in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
Provident fund
Eligible employees of Infosys receive benefits
from a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the eligible employee and the Company make monthly contributions to
the provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary. The Company contributes a portion to
the Infosys Limited Employees' Provident Fund Trust. The trust invests in specific designated instruments as permitted by Indian
law. The remaining portion is contributed to the government administered pension fund. The rate at which the annual interest is
payable to the beneficiaries by the trust is being administered by the government. The Company has an obligation to make good the
shortfall, if any, between the return from the investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
In respect of Indian subsidiaries, eligible
employees receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the eligible employee and the respective
companies make monthly contributions to this provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee's salary.
Amounts collected under the provident fund plan are deposited in a government administered provident fund. The Companies have no
further obligation to the plan beyond its monthly contributions.
Superannuation
Certain employees of Infosys, Infosys BPM and
EdgeVerve are participants in a defined contribution plan. The Group has no further obligations to the plan beyond its monthly
contributions which are periodically contributed to a trust fund, the corpus of which is invested with the Life Insurance Corporation
of India.
Compensated absences
The Group has a policy on compensated absences
which are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined
by actuarial valuation performed by an independent actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the
additional amount expected to be paid/availed as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date.
Expense on non-accumulating compensated absences is recognized in the period in which the absences occur.

| Weighted average duration of defined benefit obligation (years) |

Assumptions regarding future mortality experience
are set in accordance with the published statistics by the Life Insurance Corporation of India.
The Company assesses these assumptions with
its projected long-term plans of growth and prevalent industry standards. The discount rate is based on the government securities
yield.
Sensitivity of significant assumptions used
for valuation of defined benefit obligation:
(in crore)

As at March 31,
2019 |
| Discount rate |

| Weighted average rate of increase in compensation levels |

Sensitivity to significant actuarial assumptions
is computed by varying one actuarial assumption used for the valuation of the defined benefit obligation by one percentage, keeping
all other actuarial assumptions constant. In practice, this is not probable, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated.
Gratuity is applicable only to employees drawing
a salary in Indian rupees and there are no other significant foreign defined benefit gratuity plans.
The Company contributes all ascertained liabilities
towards gratuity to the Infosys Limited Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust. In case of Infosys BPM and EdgeVerve, contributions are
made to the Infosys BPM Employees' Gratuity Fund Trust and EdgeVerve Systems Limited Employees Gratuity Fund Trust, respectively.
Trustees administer contributions made to the trust as at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the plan assets have been primarily
invested in insurer managed funds.
Actual return on assets for the year ended March
31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 were 95 crore and 93 crore, respectively.
The Group expects to contribute 162 crore
to the gratuity trusts during the remainder of fiscal 2020.

2.20.2 Provident fund
Infosys has an obligation to fund any shortfall
on the yield of the trust’s investments over the administered interest rates on an annual basis. These administered rates
are determined annually predominantly considering the social rather than economic factors and in most cases the actual return earned
by the Company has been higher in the past years. The actuary has provided a valuation for provident fund liabilities on the basis
of guidance issued by Actuarial Society of India and based on the assumptions provided below there is no shortfall as at March
31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

2.21 RECONCILIATION
OF BASIC AND DILUTED SHARES USED IN COMPUTING EARNINGS PER SHARE
Accounting policy
Basic earnings per equity share is computed
by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders
of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also
the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair
value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as
at the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for
each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially
dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including
for changes effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.
The following is a reconciliation of the equity
shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per equity share:
| Particulars |
Year ended March 31, |
| |
2019 |
2018 |
| Basic earnings per equity share - weighted average number of equity shares outstanding(1) |
4,347,130,157 |
4,510,664,644 |
| Effect of dilutive common equivalent shares - share options outstanding |

| Diluted earnings per equity share - weighted average number of equity shares and common equivalent shares outstanding |
435,34,20,772 |
451,51,47,740 |
Information in the table above is adjusted
for September 2018 bonus issue (Refer note no 2.11)
(1) Excludes treasury
shares
For the year ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, Nil and 3,10,372 (adjusted for September 2018 bonus issue) number of options
to purchase equity shares had an anti-dilutive effect respectively.

of income tax matters amounted to 2,851 crore. These matters are pending before various Appellate Authorities and the management
including its tax advisors expect that its position will likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material
adverse effect on the Group's financial position and results of operations.
Amount paid to statutory authorities against the above tax claims amounted to 5,924 crore.
Subsequent to March 31, 2018, the Supreme Court of India ruled favorably in respect of certain income tax claims which have been
given effect in the above disclosure of claims as at March 31, 2019. |
The Group is subject to legal proceedings and
claims, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Group’s management does not reasonably expect that these
legal actions, when ultimately concluded and determined, will have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s results
of operations or financial condition.

SEGMENT
REPORTING
Ind AS 108 establishes standards for the way
that public business enterprises report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The Group's operations predominantly relate to providing end-to-end business solutions to
enable clients to enhance business performance.
During the three months ended June 30, 2018,
the Group internally reorganized some of its business segments to deepen customer relationships, improve focus of sales investments
and increase management oversight. Consequent to the internal reorganization, there were changes in the reportable business segments
based on “Management approach” as defined under Ind AS 108, Operating Segments. Therefore, enterprises in Insurance
which was earlier considered under the Life Sciences, Healthcare and Insurance business segment are now considered under the Financial
Services business segment and enterprises in Communication, Telecom OEM and Media which was earlier under Energy & Utilities,
Communication and Services is now shown as a separate business segment. Segmental operating income has changed in line with these
as well as changes in the allocation method. The CODM evaluates the Group's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis
of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly, information has been presented along business segments. The
accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure
in individual segments, and are as set out in the accounting policies.
Business segments of the Group are primarily
enterprises in Financial Services and Insurance, enterprises in Manufacturing, enterprises in Retail, Consumer Packaged Goods and
Logistics, enterprises in the Energy, Utilities, Resources and Services, enterprises in Communication, Telecom OEM and Media, enterprises
in Hi-Tech, enterprises in Life Sciences and Healthcare and all other segments. The Financial services reportable segments has
been aggregated to include the Financial Services operating segment and Finacle operating segment because of the similarity of
the economic characteristics. All other segments represent the operating segments of businesses in India, Japan, China, Infosys
Public Services & other enterprises in Public Services. Consequent to the above change in the composition of reportable business
segments, the prior year comparatives for the year ended March 31, 2018 have been restated.
Revenue and identifiable operating expenses
in relation to segments are categorized based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment. Revenue for 'all other
segments' represents revenue generated by Infosys Public services and revenue generated from customers located in India, Japan
and China and other enterprises in Public services. Allocated expenses of segments include expenses incurred for rendering services
from the Group's offshore software development centres and on-site expenses, which are categorized in relation to the associated
efforts of the segment. Certain expenses such as depreciation, which form a significant component of total expenses, are not specifically
allocable to specific segments as the underlying assets are used interchangeably. The management believes that it is not practical
to provide segment disclosures relating to those costs and expenses, and accordingly these expenses are separately disclosed as
"unallocated" and adjusted against the total income of the Group.
Assets and liabilities used in the Group's business
are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The management believes
that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful
segregation of the available data is onerous.
Business segment revenue information is collated
based on individual customers invoiced or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.
