Indian IT Majors Accelerate Strategic Cloud Acquisitions
8.0
In December 2025 Indian IT majors accelerated acquisitions to shore up cloud and AI capabilities, with TCS announcing a $700 million purchase of Coastal Cloud and peers Infosys and Wipro completing large deals. Analysts say the deals plug niche Salesforce, CRM and agentic-AI gaps to enable higher-value, advisory-led services, but caution that successful integration is essential to realize margin uplift and avoid write-downs.
Key Points
- 1Announce TCS’s $700 million Coastal Cloud acquisition and similar deals by Infosys and Wipro in 2025
- 2Address capability gaps in cloud, Salesforce, and agentic AI to pursue higher-value services and bids
- 3Warn that successful integration determines margin uplift; poor integration risks write-downs and leadership churn
Scoring Rationale
