LTI has outperformed its mid cap and large cap peers in revenue growth in Q3FY21. We expect the company to continue to register Industry leading growth led by it's ability to win large deals, presence in niche verticals, effectively mine clients, adding Fortune 500 clients, ability provide end to end solution and digital prowess. However, the current price factors in most of the positives and hence we downgrade the stock from BUY to HOLD with a revised target price of Rs. 4580 (30x PE on FY23E EPS) (earlier target price of Rs. 3850).
