  • With the advent of newer, innovative technologies, Indian software giants such as Tata Consultancy Services and Infosys scripted plunging results and weak earnings outlook.

    Many of the top firms slashed their guidance multiple times, and most of it has been due to lower demand in the Indian IT industry.

    Most of this was attributed to the slow shift towards analytic and cloud technology.
