On September 14, 2023, Infosys announced a pact with a global company to offer enhanced digital experiences alongside modernisation and business operations services leveraging Infosys platforms and AI (artificial intelligence) solutions.

In a BSE filing on Saturday, Infosys said "the global company has now elected to terminate the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), and the parties will not pursue the master agreement."

Infosys also said the stock market intimation was in continuation of a disclosure made on September 14, 2023, concerning an MoU with the global company subject to parties entering into a master agreement.

The deal loss comes at a time when global uncertainties and macro headwinds have challenged IT and tech companies worldwide. The UK economy has contracted in the third quarter, according to official estimates, and experts have cautioned that Britain could already be at risk of a recession.
