LTIMindtree unveiled a new brand identity and positioning on February 12, with its Board of Directors approving a proposal to change the company name to 'LTM Limited,' subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals. Earlier that day, Managing Director and CEO Venu Lambu told CNBC-TV18 that concerns about artificial intelligence causing a structural slowdown in the IT industry were “overblown or exaggerated.” Lambu, speaking as the company rebranded to ‘LTM Limited,’ asserted that AI would reshape services but not pose a long-term threat.

These codes consolidated 29 old laws into four and altered gratuity and leave benefit calculations.
