Letter to the shareholders
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear shareholders:
We are pleased to report on another strong quarter. Under Indian GAAP, revenues
grew by 113.7% over Q2FY2000 while net profits witnessed an increase of 134.4%.
Net of separations, we added nearly 1500 employees in the quarter --highlighting
the continued vigorous growth in our business. A key driver of this performance
is the de-risked nature of the Infosys business model. Prudent risk management
policies, strong processes to monitor various risk factors, and a focus on
diversification continue to guide our business strategy. Our strong
relationships with Fortune 1000 corporations, our in-depth understanding of
their decision cycles, and our track record of customer satisfaction enabled us
to maintain topline predictability while ceaselessly improving overall revenue
productivity.
As transformation partners to traditional economy corporations, we help them
build next-generation information infrastructure for the new economy. These
engagements constitute the bulk of our e-business revenues, which, at 31.4% of
total revenues, continue to be a high-growth segment of our business. Further,
with a view to capitalizing on the unprecedented opportunities offered by the
present day environment, we continued to build expertise in high-potential
technology areas such as wireless, broadband and optical networking.
The quarter saw a strategic alliance with Microsoft Corporation to jointly
deliver e-business solutions to help companies migrate to the new economy. Our
client base continues to increase -- we partnered with 27 new clients during the
quarter. These included Eastman Chemicals, one of the top 10 global suppliers of
custom-manufactured chemicals; Fritz companies, a specialist in global
integrated logistics; ABB Alstom, global specialist in energy and transport
infrastructure; Publix Supermarkets, one of the largest supermarket chains in
the US; SignalSoft, a leading platform and applications developer of Wireless
Location Services (R); Last Mile Solutions, a spread spectrum wireless solutions
provider; NightFire Software, a leading e-infrastructure software provider for
broadband service fulfilment; and Riverstone Networks, a leading manufacturer of
switches and routers. We also continued to build long-term symbiotic
partnerships -- evidenced by our repeat business rate of 84.5% in the quarter.
Our endeavor to have access to cutting-edge technologies and business models led
us to make three strategic investments in the quarter. We invested in Vienna-
based Alpha Thinx Mobile Phone Services, which hosts interactive services for
mobile users across Europe; in Singapore-based M-Commerce Ventures, a wireless-
focussed fund promoted by the Economic Development Board, Singapore; and in Asia
Net Media, which intends to build a synergistic network of companies that
leverage under-exploited offline brands in media and entertainment by delivering
them online.
We continued to globalize our operations -- our software development center in
London became operational during the quarter, as did our marketing offices in
Hong Kong and Sydney. Our Infosys City facility in Bangalore is nearing
completion and we continue to build capacity in our other development centers in
India and abroad.
We inducted Professor Jitendra Vir Singh, Vice Dean, International Academic
Affairs, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, onto the board of
directors. On your behalf, we welcome him on board and also extend our
appreciation to our fellow Infoscions who contributed to yet another successful
quarter in our history.

1. Significant accounting policies and notes on accounts
________________________________________________________________________________
Company overview
Infosys Technologies Limited ("Infosys" or "the Company") is a publicly
held company providing information technology ("IT") solutions principally
to Fortune 1000 and emerging new economy companies. Infosys' range of
services includes IT consulting, IT architecture, application development,
e-commerce and Internet consulting, and software maintenance. In addition,
the Company develops and markets certain software products. Headquartered
in Bangalore, India, Infosys has 17 state-of-the-art offshore software
development facilities located throughout India that enables it to provide
high quality, cost-effective services to clients in a resource-constrained
environment. The Company also maintains offices in North America, Europe
and Asia.
1.1 Significant accounting policies
1.1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention,
in accordance with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP")
comprising the accounting standards issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India and the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956, as
adopted consistently by the Company. All income and expenditure having a
material bearing on the financial statements are recognized on the accrual
basis.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP
requires that the management of the Company ("Management") make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses of
the period, reported balances of assets and liabilities and disclosures
relating to contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the
financial statements. Examples of such estimates include expected contract
costs to be incurred to complete software development, provision for
doubtful debts, future obligations under employee retirement benefit plans
and the useful lives of fixed assets. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
1.1.2 Revenue recognition
Revenue from software development on time-and-materials contracts is
recognized based on software developed and billed to clients as per the
terms of specific contracts. On fixed-price contracts, revenue is
recognized based on milestones achieved as specified in the contracts on
the percentage-of-completion basis. Revenue from rendering Annual Technical
Services ("ATS") is recognized proportionately over the period in which
services are rendered. Revenue from the sale of licenses for the use of
software applications is recognized on transfer of the title in the user
license. Interest on deployment of surplus funds is recognized using the
time-proportion method, based on interest rates implicit in the
transaction. Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive
dividend is established. Revenue from the sale of special import licences
is recognized when the licences are transferred.
1.1.3 Expenditure
The cost of software purchased for use in software development and services
is charged to revenue in the year the software is acquired. Project costs
in the nature of salaries, travel and other expenses incurred on fixed
price contracts, where milestones are yet to be reached are classified as
"Costs in excess of billings" in the balance sheet. Provisions are made for
all known losses and liabilities. Provisions are made for future
unforeseeable factors that may affect the profit on fixed-price software
development contracts. The leave encashment liability of the Company is
provided on the basis of an actuarial valuation. Provisions are made
towards likely expenses for providing post-sales client support on fixed-
price contracts.
1.1.4 Fixed assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost, after reducing accumulated depreciation
until the date of the balance sheet. Direct costs are capitalized until the
assets are ready for use and include financing costs relating to any
specific borrowing attributable to the acquisition of the fixed assets.
1.1.5 Capital work-in-progress
Advances paid to acquire fixed assets and the cost of assets not put to use
before the period-end, are disclosed under capital work-in-progress.
1.1.6 Depreciation
Depreciation on fixed assets is determined using the straight-line method
based on useful lives of assets as estimated by Management. Depreciation
for assets purchased/ sold during the period is proportionately charged.
Individual assets acquired for less than Rs. 5,000 are entirely depreciated
in the year of acquisition. Management estimates the useful lives for the
various fixed assets as follows:
________________________________________________
Buildings 15 years
Plant and machinery 5 years
Computer equipment 2-5 years
Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Vehicles 5 years

1.1.7 Retirement benefits to employees
1.1.7a Gratuity
In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, Infosys provides for
gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan (the "Gratuity Plan") covering all
employees. The Gratuity plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at
retirement, death or termination of employment, of an amount based on the
respective employee's salary and the years of employment with the Company.
The Company established the Infosys Technologies Limited Employees' Gratuity
Fund Trust (the "Trust") in 1997, until which the Company made contributions to
a gratuity plan managed by the Life Insurance Corporation of India. Liabilities
with regard to the Gratuity Plan are determined by actuarial valuation, based
upon which, the Company contributes to the Trust. Trustees administer the
contributions made to the Trust. The funds contributed to the Trust are invested
in specific designated securities as mandated by law and generally comprise
central and state government bonds and debt instruments of government-owned
corporations.
1.1.7b Superannuation
Apart from being covered under the Gratuity Plan described above, the senior
officers of Infosys are also participants of a defined contribution plan. The
Company makes monthly contributions to the superannuation plan (the "plan")
based on a specified percentage of each covered employee's salary. The Company
has no further obligations under the Plan beyond its monthly contributions.
1.1.7c Provident fund
In addition to the above benefits, all employees receive benefits from a
provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the employee and the
Company make monthly contributions to this provident fund plan equal to a
specified percentage of the covered employee's salary.
Infosys established a Provident Fund Trust in 1996 to which a part of the
contributions are made each month. Prior thereto, the Company made contributions
to the provident fund plan administered by the Government of India. The
remainders of the contributions are made to the Government administered
provident fund. The Company has no further obligations under the provident fund
plan beyond its monthly contributions.
1.1.8 Research and development
Revenue expenditure incurred on research and development is charged off as
incurred. Capital expenditure incurred on research and development is
depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
1.1.9 Foreign currency transactions
Sales made to overseas clients and collections deposited in foreign currency
bank accounts are recorded at the exchange rate as of the date of the respective
transactions. Expenditure in foreign currency is accounted at the exchange rate
prevalent when such expenditure is incurred. Disbursements made out of foreign
currency bank accounts are reported at a rate that approximates the actual
monthly rate. Exchange differences are recorded when the amount actually
received on sales or actually paid when expenditure is incurred is converted
into Indian Rupee. The exchange differences arising on foreign currency
transactions are recognized as income or expense in the period in which they
arise.
Fixed assets purchased at overseas offices are recorded at cost, based on the
exchange rate as of the date of purchase. The charge for depreciation is
determined as per the Company's accounting policy. Current assets and current
liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate
prevalent at the date of the balance sheet. The resulting difference is also
recorded in the profit and loss account. In the case of forward contracts, the
difference between the forward rate and the exchange rate on the date of the
transaction is recognized as income or expense over the life of the contract.
1.1.10 Investments
Investments are classified as current investments or long-term investments.
Current investments are carried at the lower of cost and fair value. Cost for
overseas investments comprises the Indian Rupee value of the consideration paid
for the investment. Provisions are recorded for any decline in the carrying
value as of the balance sheet date.
Long-term investments are carried at cost and provisions recorded to recognize
any decline, other than temporary, in the carrying value of such investment.
1.1.11 Investment in subsidiary
The investment in the subsidiary is accounted on the cost method, whereby, the
investment is carried at cost and the Company recognizes only dividends received
from the subsidiary as income in the profit and loss account. Provisions are
recorded to recognize any decline, other than temporary, in the carrying value
of the investment.
1.1.12 Income tax
Provision is made for income tax annually based on the tax liability computed
after considering tax allowances and exemptions. Provisions are recorded as
considered appropriate for matters under appeal due to disallowances or for
other reasons.

1.2.17 Pro-forma disclosures relating to the Employee Stock Option Plans
("ESOPs")
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) recently issued the (Employee
Stock Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines, 1999 which
is applicable to all stock option schemes established after June 19, 1999. In
accordance with these guidelines, the excess of the market price of the
underlying equity shares as of the date of the grant of the options over the
exercise price of the options, including up-front payments, if any is to be
recognized and amortized on a straight line basis over the vesting period. All
options under the 1998 and 1999 stock option plans have been issued at fair
market value, hence there are no compensation costs.
The Company's 1994 stock option plan was established prior to the SEBI
guidelines on stock options.
Had the stock compensation costs for this stock option plan been determined as
per the guidelines issued by SEBI, the Company's reported net profit would have
been reduced to the proforma amounts indicated below.

Certain expenses such as personnel costs, communication, depreciation on plant
and machinery, etc., which form a significant component of total expenses, are
not specifically allocable to these geographical segments as the underlying
services are used interchangeably between reportable segments. Management
believes that it is not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to
segment costs and expenses, and consequently segment profits or losses, since a
realistic allocation can not be made.
Moreover the fixed assets used in the Company's business or the liabilities
contracted are not identifiable to any particular reportable segment as the
fixed assets and services can be used interchangeably among segments.
Consequently, management believes that it is not practicable to provide segment
disclosures relating to total assets since a meaningful analysis based on the
available data among the various geographic segments is not possible.
