Focus on High-end Engineering and R&D services

New Delhi, India May 11, 2010: Alstom, a

Infosys will provide support to Alstom Powers global

Given our experience with Infosys and our confidence in
their strong competencies, they are a natural partner of choice.
This endeavor also underlines our commitment to invest in Asia,
particularly in India.

This engagement builds upon the existing relationship between
Alstom and Infosys, which began in 2005 with the establishment of
the Alstom R&D Center at the Infosys campus in Mysore and now
extends to all of Alstom Powers business units. Most
recently, an additional Alstom R&D center has been
established at the Infosys campus in Pune.

Infosys has invested in engineering and technology
specific centers-of-excellence to support Alstom Power
globally, said
