A. Industry Structure and Developments

The global IT and Business Process Management (BPM) industry is entering a defining phase, where Artificial Intelligence (Al) is no longer a technology trend, but a foundational enterprise capability. As organizations move beyond experimentation, the focus has shifted from deploying Al tools to engineering Al systems that are scalable, reliable, governed, and capable of delivering measurable business impact.

This transition marks a critical inflection point: while Al adoption is widespread, enterprise value realization remains uneven. The differentiator is no longer access to Al, but the ability to engineer Al into core business workflows, operational systems, and decision-making frameworks at scale. This shift is redefining the role of ITBPM service providers; from technology implementers to partners in engineering enterprise-grade Al outcomes.

1. Global Economy

According to the International Monetary Fund?s World Economic Outlook (April 2026) (IMF, 2026), global economic growth in 2025 is confirmed at 3.4%, above earlier projections and reflecting the economy?s continued underlying resilience, while growth is projected to moderate to 3.1% in 2026 before recovering to 3.2% in 2027. The 2026 projection represents a downward revision of 0.2 percentage points relative to the January 2026 WEO Update, reflecting the cumulative drag of geopolitical conflict, elevated trade fragmentation, and persistent policy uncertainty on medium-term growth prospects.

The IMF?s April 2026 WEO characterises the global environment as one “in the shadow of war”; a reference to the destabilising macroeconomic effects of ongoing geopolitical conflict, expanding defence spending mandates, and the elevated uncertainty they generate for global trade, capital flows, and business investment (IMF, 2026). While the global economy demonstrated notable resilience through 2025, supported in part by front-loading of trade ahead of tariff changes and by fiscal expansion in select economies, these supportive factors are fading.

Risks to the 2026 and 2027 outlook remain firmly tilted to the downside, with geopolitical escalation, trade fragmentation, fiscal vulnerabilities, and potential abrupt repricing of technology assets among the principal concerns.

Advanced economies recorded actual growth of 1.9% in 2025, with projections of 1.8% in 2026 and 1.7% in 2027 (IMF, 2026), a level consistent with entrenched structural constraints across major advanced markets. Emerging market and developing economies recorded actual growth of 4.4% in 2025, with projections of 3.9% in 2026 and 4.2% in 2027, with performance remaining uneven across regions (IMF, 2026).

India stands out as the world?s fastest-growing major economy, with the IMF confirming actual growth of 7.6% in 2025; the highest among all major economies, and projecting sustained growth of 6.5% in both 2026 and 2027 (IMF, 2026). This exceptional performance, comfortably outpacing every other large economy, is underpinned by robust domestic demand, strong macroeconomic fundamentals, sustained public infrastructure investment, easing inflation, and a resilient and diversified services sector. Indias structural positioning, combined with its expanding digital economy and world-class technology services industry, makes it an increasingly critical node in the global economic architecture and a primary beneficiary of the ongoing reorientation of global trade and investment flows.

The global IT Services and Business Process Management (BPM) industry, estimated at approximately $1.6-17 T in 2025 (Precedence Research, 2025); is undergoing a period of structural recalibration. Worldwide IT spending is projected to reach $5.61 T in 2025, a nearly 10% increase from 2024 (Gartner, 2025a). While headline spending growth remains strong, the composition has shifted materially: enterprises are moving away from broad-based digital transformation programmes toward targeted, ROI-driven investments, reflecting a more disciplined approach to technology capital allocation in an environment of persistent macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty.

A notable feature of the 2025 spending landscape has been what Gartner (Gartner, 2025a) terms an ‘uncertainty pause?, a strategic suspension of net-new technology initiatives beginning in the second quarter of 2025, driven not by budget cuts but by heightened geopolitical and economic volatility. Critically, this pause is concentrated in discretionary, project-based spending. Recurring expenditures, including cloud services, managed services, and Al-related infrastructure, have remained resilient, with data centre systems spending growing over 40% in 2025 as enterprises and hyperscalers invest aggressively in Al-optimised infrastructure (Gartner, 2025a). Al-optimised servers are expected to triple the spend on traditional servers by 2026 (Gartner, 2025b). Worldwide IT spending is projected to accelerate further to $6.15 T in 2026, driven by GenAI features becoming ubiquitous across enterprise software (Gartner, 2026).

Across the services layer, enterprises are increasingly prioritising cost efficiency and productivity gains, measurable business outcomes over transformational intent, resilience and regulatory compliance, and the intelligent automation of core operational processes. This has led IT and BPM providers to reposition themselves; from traditional outsourcing vendors to strategic transformation enablers, offering integrated capabilities spanning consulting, technology implementation, and managed operations.

3. Al at Scale: From Adoption to Engineered Enterprise Impact

No force is reshaping the IT-BPM industry more profoundly or more rapidly than Artificial Intelligence, and specifically Generative Al. Having moved from proof-of-concept novelty to enterprise infrastructure within the span of two years, Al is now a central axis around which the entire industry is reorganising itself.

Scale of the Opportunity

According to McKinsey & Company?s State of Al research (McKinsey, 2025a; McKinsey, 2025b), Generative Al has the potential to generate between $2.6 T and $4.4 T annually in economic value across 63 enterprise use cases; a figure that, at its upper bound, exceeds the entire GDP of the United Kingdom. When accounting for the broader integration of GenAI into existing enterprise software systems, this figure could roughly double. Approximately 75% of this value is concentrated in four functions: customer operations, marketing and sales, software engineering, and research and development (McKinsey, 2025a).

Global spending on Al-enabled technologies is growing significantly through 2025 and 2026, with GenAI features now becoming ubiquitous across enterprise software (Gartner, 2025b). Al-optimised server spending reached $202 B in 2025, more than doubling spend on traditional servers, and is expected to triple traditional server spending by 2026 (Gartner, 2025a). According to NASSCOM?s Strategic Review 2026 (NASSCOM, 2026), Al-related revenues in India?s technology sector are estimated at $10-12 B for FY26, reflecting scaled, function-specific deployments that have moved decisively beyond pilot programmes into commercial offerings.

From Experimentation to Industrialisation

The defining characteristic of enterprise Al in 2025 has been the decisive pivot from experimentation to industrialisation. McKinsey?s State of Al 2025 (McKinsey, 2025b), drawing on 1,993 organisations across 105 nations, reports that 79% of organisations are now regularly using Al in at least one business function, with 72% using GenAI specifically, up from 33% in 2024. Yet despite this broad adoption, only around one-third have begun scaling Al across the enterprise. The central challenge has therefore shifted decisively: it is no longer about adoption, but about scaling Al to generate measurable, enterprise-level business impact.

This transition is accelerating the emergence of what NASSCOM (NASSCOM, 2026) describes as an ‘intelligence-led operating model?, where Al handles repetitive and knowledge-intensive tasks, humans concentrate on exception management and strategic decision-making, and technology platforms enable scalable, repeatable delivery at fundamentally lower unit costs. In CY25, India?s technology industry shifted decisively from Al experimentation to industrialisation, with strategic mergers and acquisitions consolidating Al-native assets and providers re-engineering revenue models away from FTE- based delivery toward outcome based, risk-sharing constructs as Al-driven productivity materialises (NASSCOM, 2026).

However, as enterprises scale Al, a new challenge has emerged: engineering Al for enterprise reliability and impact. This includes integrating Al into legacy systems, ensuring data readiness, establishing governance frameworks, managing model risks, and aligning Al outputs with business KPIs. As a result, enterprise demand is shifting toward partners who can combine Al engineering, domain expertise, and operational integration; ensuring that Al delivers consistent, auditable, and measurable ^ outcomes at scale.

Productivity Impact and Value Realisation

Al-driven automation is delivering measurable productivity improvements at scale. McKinsey?s State of Al 2025 (McKinsey, 2025b), drawing on responses from 1,993 organisations across 105 nations, confirms that 79% of organisations now report regular use of Generative Al in at least one function, up from 65% in 2024, with 72% using GenAI specifically. Revenue uplift is most commonly reported in marketing and sales, strategy and corporate finance, and product development. Cost benefits are most visible in software engineering, manufacturing, and IT. However, enterprise-wide EBIT impact remains rare: only 39% of respondents report any EBIT impact attributable to Al, and only approximately 6%, McKinsey?s “high performers”, report an EBIT impact of 5% or more (McKinsey, 2025b).

Critically, however, McKinsey?s State of Al 2025 (McKinsey, 2025b) underscores that scaling Al to generate enterprisewide impact remains the defining challenge. More than 80% of respondents say their organisations are not yet seeing tangible EBIT impact from GenAI, and fewer than 10% report that they are scaling Al agents in any function. While 62% are experimenting with agentic Al systems, only 23% are scaling them, revealing that the transition from experimentation to operational deployment remains the critical bottleneck. High performers distinguish themselves by treating Al as a catalyst for transformation: redesigning workflows, setting ambitious growth targets, investing more than 20% of digital budgets in Al, and implementing humanin-the-loop governance frameworks. This gap between Al?s potential and its realised enterprise-level value is creating substantial demand for partners who bring structured value management capabilities, Al strategy, programme design, governance, outcome tracking, and workflow re-engineering, alongside engineering delivery (McKinsey, 2025b).

The Responsible Al Imperative

As Al deployment accelerates, the governance and ethics dimensions have moved from peripheral concerns to boardroom priorities. Regulatory scrutiny of Al systems, including the EU Al Act, emerging data protection frameworks, and sector-specific Al governance requirements across financial services and healthcare, is compelling enterprises to invest in explainability, bias auditing, human oversight mechanisms, and incident response protocols. For service providers, the ability to demonstrate responsible Al practices, backed by formal governance frameworks such as ISO 42001:2023, is becoming a meaningful differentiator and, increasingly, a prerequisite for enterprise engagement.

In this evolving landscape, the ability to engineer Al for enterprise impact rather than merely deploy it will define the next generation of industry leaders.

4. Transformation of BPM: From Cost Arbitrage to Intelligent Operations

The Business Process Management segment is undergoing its most fundamental structural shift in decades, transitioning from a labour-intensive, cost-arbitrage model to an intelligence-led, automation-first paradigm. For much of the industry?s history, BPM?s value proposition rested primarily on labour cost differentials, process standardisation, and economies of scale. These dynamics, while still relevant, are no longer sufficient as a competitive foundation.

Today, enterprises are leveraging Al-powered automation, advanced analytics, cognitive decision systems, and platform- based delivery to transform BPM into a strategic lever for business value creation.

The key structural trends reshaping the BPM landscape include:

Transition to BPaaS (Business Process as a Service):

Platform-based, subscription-driven delivery models that combine process expertise with Al-powered automation and outcome-linked pricing- enabling clients to consume BPM capabilities as a managed service rather than a fixed- cost, headcount-driven engagement. (NASSCOM, 2026)

Outcome-Based Pricing and Risk Sharing:

A structural shift in commercial models from effort-based to outcomelinked pricing, with contracts tied to KPIs such as productivity gains, automation rates, customer satisfaction, and operational cost reduction. As Al reduces the manual effort embedded in traditional delivery, services firms are being compelled to rethink how they price and deliver work entirely.

Al-Augmented Process Execution:

Embedding GenAI and machine learning into core processes such as customer experience management, collections, HR operations, and finance and accounting to drive higher throughput, lower error rates, and real-time decision intelligence. (McKinsey, 2025b)

Domain-Led Verticalization:

The highest growth in BPM is concentrated in domain- specific, Al-enabled service lines tailored to the distinct regulatory, operational, and data environments of sectors such as BFS, insurance, healthcare, and manufacturing. (NASSCOM, 2025)

While Al-led automation may moderate traditional headcount-driven BPM growth over the medium term, the net effect on market size is expected to be expansionary. For India?s BPM industry, which accounts for approximately $59 B in the NASSCOM FY26 estimate (NASSCOM, 2026), this shift represents a strategic opportunity to move up the value chain and compete on intelligence rather than cost alone.

The evolution of BPM into intelligent operations is fundamentally an engineering challenge at scale requiring the orchestration of Al models, workflow systems, data pipelines, and human decision frameworks. Providers that can engineer this convergence into stable, repeatable, and outcome-driven operating models are best positioned to lead the next phase of BPM transformation.

5. India?s Dominance in the Global IT-BPM Ecosystem

India remains the pre-eminent global hub for IT-BPM services. According to NASSCOM?s Strategic Review 2026 (NASSCOM, 2026), India?s technology industry is projected to reach $315 B in FY26- a 6.1% increase over FY25?s revised figure of $297 B; crossing the $300 B milestone for the first time. This growth, achieved against a backdrop of global macroeconomic uncertainty and trade fragmentation, reflects the industry?s structural resilience and its capacity to adapt.

The industry?s segmentation in FY26 reflects a maturing, diversifying portfolio: IT services at approximately $49 B, engineering, R&D, and design (ER&D) at $63 B, BPM at $59 B, software products at $23 B, and hardware at $21 B (NASSCOM, 2026). Exports, which continue to constitute the bulk of industry revenue, are estimated at approximately $246 B for FY26. Domestic revenues are growing faster at 7.9% annually, reflecting India?s accelerating enterprise digitisation and expansion of public digital infrastructure (NASSCOM, 2026).

India?s Evolving Competitive Advantage

India?s edge in global IT-BPM is no longer defined primarily by cost efficiency, though that remains a material factor. The competitive narrative is shifting toward a higher-value proposition anchored in:

Al Engineering Depth:

A deep and rapidly expanding pool of Al, machine learning, data science, and cloud engineering talent, including a new cohort of GenAI-native developers, positions India as a global centre of Al capability. India?s Al market is projected to reach $17 B by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 25-35%. (IBEF, 2026)

GCC Ecosystem Leadership:

India is home to over 1,750 Global Capability Centres (GCCs). These have evolved from shared service centres into strategic innovation hubs, responsible for Al development, product engineering, advanced analytics, and global R&D. GCCs are expected to contribute over 1.2M of the 4.7M new technology jobs projected in India by 2027, driven by GenAI adoption and engineering R&D expansion. (NASSCOM, 2025; IBEF, 2026)

Platform and Product Engineering:

The industry is shifting from services to IP-led growth, with providers developing proprietary platforms, accelerators, and software products that generate recurring revenue and create scalable competitive differentiation. (NASSCOM, 2026)

Data Centre Infrastructure:

India?s data centre capacity is projected to double by 2027 and increase five-fold by 2030, supported by hyperscaler investment, the government?s India Al Mission, and a dedicated allocation of ?20,000 M in the Union Budget FY26. (IBEF, 2026)

From Scale to Value: The FY26 Inflection

The transformation of the IT-BPM industry is creating a clear set of imperatives:

• Al must move from isolated use cases to enterprise-wide, engineered systems

• Value realization requires integration across technology, data, and operations

• Governance, security, and compliance are becoming core design principles of Al systems

• Commercial models are shifting toward outcome-based and value-linked structures

• Service providers must evolve from delivery vendors to partners in engineering enterprise impact

In this context, enterprises are increasingly seeking partners who can translate Al potential into operational and financial outcomes, with clear accountability for value delivery.

6. Industry Outlook

The IT-BPM industry stands at the beginning of a multi-year structural transformation whose trajectory is being determined by the convergence of four forces: the industrialisation of Al at enterprise scale, the platformization of service delivery, the shift to outcome-based commercial models, and the expansion of GCC-led strategic partnerships.

The near-term growth environment reflects these crosscurrents. Worldwide IT spending is projected to reach $6.15 T in 2026, growing at approximately 11% (Gartner, 2026), with acceleration driven by GenAI features embedding across enterprise software, continued hyperscaler investment in Al infrastructure, and broad-based enterprise adoption of managed Al services. IT services spending is projected at $1.73 T in 2025, with continued growth thereafter (Gartner, 2025a). The enterprise Al services addressable market including Al implementation, integration, and managed operations is expected to represent a $300 B+ opportunity over the next decade (McKinsey, 2025b)

India?s domestic IT-BPM market is expected to grow at 7-9% annually, supported by enterprise digitisation, GCC expansion, and public infrastructure investment (NASSCOM, 2026; IBEF, 2026). Notwithstanding this structural growth, the sector faces a set of near-term headwinds that are reshaping investor and client expectations. Concerns around automation-led pricing pressure, slower deal cycles, and uncertainty over Al monetisation models are prompting a broader reassessment of growth visibility across the industry; pressuring firms to demonstrate not just Al investment, but Al outcomes. Talent availability remains a parallel constraint: Al-ready skills are in limited supply, and providers are responding by expanding delivery footprints into Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities to access talent pools at appropriate cost and scale (Chahal, 2026). FY27 is expected to mark the maturation of enterprise Al spending, balancing near-term speed-to-market Al initiatives with longer- cycle enterprise reengineering programmes (NASSCOM, 2026). Providers that have established credibility in Al engineering, built governance infrastructure, and demonstrated measurable client outcomes will be best positioned to capture the value of this next phase.

For the IT-BPM industry overall, the long-term trajectory is one of continued expansion, driven by the irreversibility of digital transformation, the structural demand for intelligent operations, and the unceasing pressure on enterprises to operate with greater efficiency, agility, and intelligence (McKinsey, 2025a; Gartner, 2026). The industry is not merely a beneficiary of the Al era, it is one of its primary architects.

Corporate Provenance

Digitide?s origins trace to 2014, when Quess Corp Limited; India?s leading business services and staffing provider, expanded into tech and digital services through the acquisition of an IT professional services firm. Over the subsequent decade, the business scaled through strategic milestones: entering the P&C insurance market in 2016; building a leadership position in customer experience management through the acquisition of a majority stake in one of India?s largest CX players between 2017 and 2021; acquiring a stake in one of Indias leading listed payroll services providers in 2019; and adding a digital consulting and product engineering capability in 2024.

These businesses, having achieved considerable scale and strategic momentum, were demerged from Quess Corp Limited and consolidated under Digitide as an independent company focused exclusively on Tech, Digital, and BPM services; enabling a sharper mandate, greater governance clarity, and renewed capacity for value creation.

Strategic Direction: Al-Led, Platform-Driven Transformation

Digitide is executing a structural shift toward high-value, Al-led, and platform-driven services; moving decisively beyond traditional delivery models toward scalable, outcome-based engagements that generate recurring revenue, deepen client relationships, and expand margins.

This transformation is anchored across three strategic vectors:

1. Digitide?s Al Execution Framework Across Engineering, Services and Operations

Digitide enables enterprises to create value across engineering, services, and operations by embedding artificial intelligence across the enterprise lifecycle. The Company?s Al execution framework is structured across three layers— Pulse.ARISE, Pulse.ACT, and Pulse.AWARE—each designed to drive measurable improvements in productivity, cost efficiency, and operational resilience.

This integrated approach ensures that Al is not deployed in silos, but is engineered into core systems, workflows, and operations to deliver scalable and sustained enterprise impact.

a. Pulse.ARISE:

This results in faster deployment cycles, reduced manual testing effort, and improved developer productivity — with Al-assisted code generation driving 25-30% productivity improvements — enabling enterprises to modernize applications with greater speed, quality, and scalability.

b. Pulse.ACT:

Digitide embeds Al across service lines including digital engineering, cloud, infrastructure, cybersecurity, and enterprise applications to create reusable global templates, business capabilities, and intelligent workflows. By integrating Al into service delivery, Pulse.ACT drives cost efficiency, faster incident detection and resolution, and accelerated feature releases, ensuring that technology services are aligned to measurable business outcomes.

c. Pulse.AWARE:

Digitide applies Al to monitor, predict, and self-heal enterprise environments in real time, leveraging observability, anomaly detection, and automated remediation. This enables a shift from reactive to autonomous operations, improving system uptime, reducing mean time to resolution (MTTR), and increasing the proportion of incidents that are automatically resolved.

Together, Pulse.ARISE, Pulse.ACT, and Pulse.AWARE form a unified framework that enables Digitide to engineer Al across engineering, services, and operations, delivering faster execution, lower costs, and resilient enterprise performance at scale.

2. Agentic Al and Next-Generation Engineering Services

3. Outcome-Oriented and Annuity Engagement Models

Digitide is deliberately transitioning from effort-based to outcome-linked commercial models, creating more predictable revenue streams and tighter alignment with client value realization:

a. Managed Services Transformation:

Integrated Data + Digital + Cloud + Al managed services programs with multi-year retainers, delivering sustained client impact at scale. The enterprise Al services market is expected to exceed $300 B by 2030.

b. Al Innovation-as-a-Service:

Al labs, model engineering, and enterprise Al transformation programs delivered through subscription models, enabling enterprises to move from experimentation to scaled, production-grade Al adoption.

c .Outcome-Based Pricing:

Contracts linked to productivity gains, automation rates, and operational KPIs rather than headcount; repositioning Digitide as a business outcomes partner rather than a delivery vendor.

d. Value Management Office (VMO):

A dedicated governance layer embedding value realization from program design rather than tracking it retrospectively. The VMO delivers KPI-linked OKRs for Al programs, gain-share aligned pricing constructs, monthly KPI dashboards translating operational metrics to financial impact, and board-level Al ROI reporting; ensuring that Al investments generate measurable, accountable, and sustained business value. This approach enables Digitide to move beyond Al experimentation toward engineered, enterprise-scale transformation outcomes.

4. Platform Monetization and Al Deal Models

Digitide?s proprietary platform portfolio is increasingly the foundation of high-value, scalable commercial engagements:

The Committee meticulously scrutinizes and evaluates key audit findings to ensure the robustness of financial and internal controls, risk management systems, and processes. Regular audits and reviews serve to reinforce these systems. The internal auditor provides quarterly updates to the Committee on the status of key audit findings to ensure swift implementation of resolutions.

Deloitte Haskins and Sells, the company?s statutory auditors, audit our financial statements and issue a report on our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined under Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013, which is included in our annual report. Additionally, in accordance with Section 177 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Regulation 17 of SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015, the Statutory Auditors, along with the Audit Committee, have opined that the company maintains, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and that such controls operated effectively during the year.

Management views the enhancement of ICS as an ongoing endeavour and will persist in efforts to fortify controls, with a focus on preventive and automated measures over manual ones. The company boasts robust ERP and other supplementary IT systems, integral components of its internal control framework. Continual technological advancements are leveraged to further fortify internal controls.
