Demand environment remains robust despite recessionary fears in US and Europe. Demand is being driven by structural factors like shift in the business model towards enterprise-wide digital transformation.
One of the biggest headwinds - attrition - has now peaked and is trending downwards. Job market has cooled off and salaries of new hires have become reasonable.
While the demand outlook and margin guidance is resilient, we estimate that the current valuations are fairly pricing the optimism. Projected IRRs are likely to be subdued from here on.
