How G scores on the Software & SaaS Specialized defenses

Pricing Power

Score 75 · 20% of the moat score

In software, pricing power is visible in gross margin: a vendor that has to discount in order to renew gives it up first.

Recurring Revenue Stickiness

Score 83 · 18% of the moat score

Recurring revenue is the model's central claim, and it is a moat only when customers renew and expand without being re-sold each year.

Innovation Engine

Score 61 · 16% of the moat score

Software is competed away rather than depreciated, so a vendor that stops investing loses its category.

Cash Scalability

Score 65 · 18% of the moat score

The test of a software business is whether growth eventually stops consuming cash.

Capital Efficiency

Score 78 · 16% of the moat score

A software platform employs very little capital, so a genuine franchise should produce high returns on it without leverage.

Balance Sheet Resilience

Score 69 · 12% of the moat score

Software companies fund years of customer acquisition before those customers pay back, which makes access to capital a strategic variable rather than a treasury detail.

The score is a weighted composite of 6 competitive defenses, each measured against industry peers of 77 companies in Information Technology Services. Its strongest defense is Recurring Revenue Stickiness (83/100) and its weakest is Innovation Engine (61/100).

How does Genpact Limited compare with other Information Technology Services companies?

Genpact Limited ranks #6 of 78 scored companies in Information Technology Services by moat score. The widest moat in Information Technology Services is Mastercard Incorporated (MA) at 84/100. The companies ranked closest are Infosys Limited (INFY) at 73 just above it and Broadridge Financial Solutions, (BR) at 72 just below it.

How is the moat score calculated?

Each company is scored with an industry-specific template — Software & SaaS Specialized in this case, chosen because the defenses that matter to a bank are not the ones that matter to a software company. Every defense combines several financial signals, and each signal is measured as a percentile against a peer group of 77 companies in Information Technology Services. The defenses are then weighted to produce the overall score out of 100.

Why is Genpact Limited scored with the Software & SaaS Specialized template?

Software costs almost nothing to reproduce, so the entire economic question is whether customers keep paying. Revenue is a subscription rather than a sale, the cost of winning a customer is paid years before that customer becomes profitable, and margins arrive only if renewals hold. The Software & SaaS template scores retention, reinvestment, and the point at which growth turns into cash.

Which competitive defenses are measured for Genpact Limited?

The Software & SaaS Specialized template measures 6 defenses, and G scores: Pricing Power (75), Recurring Revenue Stickiness (83), Innovation Engine (61), Cash Scalability (65), Capital Efficiency (78), Balance Sheet Resilience (69). Each is scored independently as a percentile against peers, so a company can be strong on one and weak on another — the overall score reflects how those defenses are weighted for this industry.
