Tech Mahindra's (TechM) revenues increased 2.8% QoQ in constant currency terms (above our estimate of 1.6% QoQ in CC terms) mainly led by 4.5% QoQ growth in communication revenues and 2.7% QoQ growth in Enterprise revenues. The company also reported a healthy expansion in EBITDA margins (up 156 bps QoQ to 19.6%) mainly led by higher utilisation and gross margin expansion.

Valuation & Outlook
Increase in large lift & shift deals, digital technologies, improving 5G spend (on communication & enterprise side), large deals and acceleration in Europe bode well for the company's revenue growth. This, coupled with improving margin trajectory and attractive valuation prompt us to be positive on the stock. Hence, we maintain BUY with a revised target price of Rs. 1,120 (16 x PE on FY23E EPS) (earlier target price was Rs. 1,105).
