Infosys, a major IT services provider, terminated a substantial $1.5 billion AI deal with an undisclosed global client, initially planned for 15 years. This unexpected decision follows shortly after the resignation of Infosys’ CFO Nilanjan Roy. The termination, announced on December 23, 2023, raises concerns about Infosys and other Indian IT companies facing challenges amid a period of muted business growth. This development, along with Infosys’ narrowed revenue growth guidance and recent deal acquisitions, notably the five-year agreement with LKQ Europe, reflects the volatile environment in the IT sector. Infosys is set to announce its October-December quarter earnings in January 2024.

If you actually read the article, this deal was signed in September of 2023. The Vz Infosys deal was signed in September of 2018 and renewed on a limited basis in December of 2023. Not VZ. But interesting to see these outsourcing companies struggling as well.
The Vz Infosys deal was for 5 years, ending 12/31/23. However, they just recently signed a new contract for limited services in some areas. Not sure of the length of new contract. I wouldn't call Vz a global giant.
