We have already made considerable progress across several of these programs, and we expect this momentum to accelerate the growth of Happiest Minds. This is clearly visible in how AI is being operationalized across our company and for our clients.

I would also like to take cognisance of a recent AI-related announcement that has created some turbulence in global markets for software companies.
