Despite strong deal pipelines, Indian IT’s profitability narrative is faltering. HCL Tech’s Q4FY25 margin drop—from 19.5% to 17.9%—has sent a clear signal to the industry: execution scale no longer guarantees margin protection. This note examines how shifting client demands and structural delivery fatigue are reshaping FY26 planning.
At Greyhound Research, we believe this is more than just an earnings story—it’s an inflection point. Vendors are caught between AI investment mandates and delayed revenue realisation. The classic scale-to-profit formula is eroding, and firms must now pick between relevance and resilience. The margin game has changed.
