India's Coforge to top $2 billion revenue target, CEO says
BENGALURU (Reuters) -Indian mid-tier IT services firm Coforge is betting that a healthy order book will help it top the $2 billion revenue target for the financial year 2027, chief executive Sudhir Singh said.
The company snagged a 13-year contract valued at $1.56 billion from U.S.-based travel technology provider Sabre Corp in the previous quarter. That came at a time when larger rivals struggled to secure mega deals as macroeconomic uncertainties and tariff risks weighed on the Indian IT sector.
Coforge's revenues for the last fiscal year stood at $1.45 billion.
"If all we've done in FY27 is $2 billion, then I'll be really disappointed," CEO Singh said in an interview on Tuesday.
"Our next 12-month signed order book is 47.7% higher than where it was at the same time last year. Even if half the world breaks apart, we can still grow very strongly," he said.
Despite the high level of uncertainty, Singh is hopeful that tech spending cannot go down in areas where it is "structural in nature".
Singh said Coforge's demand outlook in the current fiscal year is strong, as all its verticals and geographies are growing. The company gets nearly 30% of its revenue from banking and financial services, 19% from insurance and 18% from travel, transportation and hospitality.
The IT firm's revenue grew about 33.8% in the fiscal year ending March, and it is relying on steady organic growth this year.
"I don't see organic growth slowing in any shape or manner in FY26," Singh said. Coforge had an estimated organic growth of 16.4% last fiscal year, according to Kotak Institutional Equities.
Larger peer Infosys expects a revenue growth of zero to 3% this fiscal year while HCLTech foresees a 2% to 5% rise.
Singh is bullish on operating margins going up "materially" as Coforge focuses on larger deals.
"We will take whatever comes our way, but we have a strong preference for larger deals because they help with visibility, they help with resilience of revenue, and they also help longer term in margin expansion."

South-East Asia Two-wheeler e-Axle Market worth $584 million by 2032
DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Aug. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- South-East Asia Two-wheeler e-Axle Market is expected to reach USD 584 million by 2032, from USD 227 million in 2025, with a CAGR of 14.45%, according to a new report by MarketsandMarkets. In South-East Asia, hub-mounted e-axles dominate the market due to their low cost, ease of integration, and minimal maintenance making them ideal for mass-market electric scooters used in urban commuting and delivery fleets. However, a shift toward adoption of e-axles in electric two-wheeler, where consumer demand for performance and range is driving OEMs to adopt more efficient, balanced integrated components solution to offer. Supply chain localization in India and Vietnam is fostering in-house development of motors and inverters, while government-led incentives are encouraging assembly of integrated e-axle units domestically. Additionally, the region's dense traffic, short-trip usage patterns, and high fuel cost sensitivity are reinforcing the appeal of compact, low-voltage e-axle systems. As a result, the market is witnessing increased partnerships between local assemblers and global e-powertrain suppliers to create modular, scalable e-axle solutions tailored for ASEAN's diverse electric two-wheeler fleet. Download an Illustrative overview: Browse in-depth TOC on "South-East Asia Two-wheeler e-Axle Market" 20 - Tables10 - Figures50 - Pages OEMs to drive the rapid growth of two-wheeler e-axles in South-East Asia Vietnam's two-wheeler e-axle market is growing steadily, supported by increasing demand for electric mobility, government incentives, and rising fuel cost concerns. Key OEMs in Vietnam such as VinFast are pursuing vertical integration strategies by developing e-axle components in-house, including motors and controllers, to reduce reliance on imports and improve cost control. For instance, In April 2024, VinFast announced the development of in-house electric drivetrain systems including motors and controllers for its upcoming electric scooters, aiming to localize up to 70% of its e-powertrain components by 2025 to reduce dependence on Chinese imports. Companies like Dat Bike and PEGA are targeting the budget segment by offering electric scooters equipped with integrated hub motor e-axles, suitable for short-distance commuting and last-mile delivery. For instance, in March 2025, Dat Bike launched its third-generation electric motorcycle with an upgraded hub motor e-axle system offering 25% higher efficiency and extended range, targeting fleet customers in urban areas. Similarly, in February 2025, PEGA expanded its scooter portfolio using modular e-axle platforms and began small-scale assembly of locally sourced inverter units. Government policies, including reduced registration fees and tax exemptions for electric vehicles, are supporting this transition. In response, Vietnamese e-axle manufacturers are increasing production capacity, focusing on local sourcing of components, and improving system efficiency to meet the needs of a cost-sensitive market and comply with the country's long-term electrification goals. China is estimated to account for the significant share of the two-wheeler e-axle in South-East Asia market during the forecast period. Chinese OEMs are expanding in the two-wheeler e-axle market by focusing on integration, modularity, and regional expansion. In March 2024, Yadea introduced a hub-mounted e-axle with higher torque density and 15% lower weight, targeting mass-market electric scooters. In February 2024, NIU Technologies enhanced its mid-mounted e-axle with proprietary controllers and CAN-based diagnostics, aligning with its connected vehicle strategy. In April 2024, Tailg started mass production of low-voltage hub e-axles for delivery and shared mobility, supported by local assembly in Vietnam and Thailand. In January 2025, Sunra launched a modular e-axle platform compatible with both hub and mid-drive layouts to address varied performance and regulatory requirements. These developments reflect a shift toward localized manufacturing, reduced system cost, and improved drivetrain efficiency. Chinese OEMs are standardizing components, simplifying architecture, and embedding basic control intelligence to scale across domestic and export markets. The focus remains on optimizing cost-performance balance and meeting region-specific technical and regulatory needs.
