Six Indian IT services brands feature among the top-10 fastest growing ones over the course of 2020-2022. 

However, the 'IT Services 25 2022' list is topped by Ireland-headquartered Accenture, and is followed by Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Infosys, which has seen the fastest increase in brand value from among all brands in the ranking this year.

There are four more Indian brands now firmly established among the global elite: Wipro (7th), HCL (8th), Tech Mahindra (15th), and LTI (22nd).

The growth rate of all the six Indian companies outpaced their US rivals, who hitherto had a great run. 

The Indian IT services brands saw an average growth of 51% from 2020 to 2022 compared to -7% for brands from United States.

These numbers have been compiled by the  brand valuation consultancy firm Brand Finance. It puts 5,000 of the biggest brands to the test, and publishes nearly 100 reports, ranking brands across all sectors and countries. The world’s top 25 most valuable and strongest IT services brands are included in the annual Brand Finance IT Services 25 2022.
