Revenues in CC terms were up 10.5% YoY in Q4 FY23. IT and business services (74% of revenues) grew 1.6% QoQ CC, engineering research and development (16% of revenues) declined 3.8% QoQ CC, due to delay in decision-making in discretionary spending.

HCL Tech's software business (~10% of revenues) fell 14.6% QoQ CC due to seasonality. For full year FY23, the company's services segment grew 15.8% CC, slightly lower than the annual guidance of 16-16.5%.
