Infosys CEO Salil Parekh assured CNBC-TV18 that the company has no intentions of downsizing or laying off employees amidst the technological advancements in generative AI, which have led to significant job cuts in the industry. Parekh emphasized Infosys's commitment to retaining its workforce, distinguishing it from other firms in the sector.

Parekh outlined the company's hiring plans, expressing optimism about the coexistence of various technologies within large organizations.
