BENGALURU, Feb 17 (Reuters) - India’s No.2 software-services exporter Infosys said on Tuesday that artificial intelligence services accounted for 5.5% ‌of its revenue in the December quarter, marking the ‌first time the company has broken out its AI business.

The disclosure comes as India’s $283 ​billion IT industry faces rising investor concerns about AI’s potential to disrupt traditional, labour‑intensive outsourcing models.

“It is growing at a robust pace. It is extremely dynamic and working well with our clients,” CEO Salil ‌Parekh said, adding that ⁠its AI offerings include autonomous agents and embedded systems for physical devices and hardware.

Parekh has previously said ⁠the company is working on 4,600 AI projects and has built more than 500 agents.

India’s software-services sector has come under scrutiny in recent ​weeks, with ​IT stocks suffering their worst ​week in more than 10 ‌months amid concerns that Anthropic’s AI tools could accelerate disruption. The sell-off has wiped about $40 billion off the industry’s market capitalisation so far in February.

Infosys posted third‑quarter revenue of 454.79 billion rupees ($5.01 billion). Larger rival Tata Consultancy Services has said its AI services generate ‌about $1.8 billion annually, or roughly 5.8% ​of total revenue.

Infosys on Tuesday also unveiled ​a collaboration with Anthropic ​to set up a dedicated center to build ‌and deploy AI agents, starting with ​telecom and expanding ​into financial services, manufacturing, and software development.

Meanwhile, India is hosting the AI Impact Summit, an event showcasing the country’s technology ​ambitions, in New ‌Delhi from February 16-20.
