LTTS Share Price in Focus; Targets 500 AI and GenAI Patents in 3 Years

L&T Technology Services is intensifying its artificial intelligence strategy with plans to scale its AI and Generative AI patent portfolio to 500 over the next 3 years, reflecting the company’s push to strengthen technology-led engineering capabilities beyond traditional workforce training metrics, as per news reports. 

Patent Expansion Becomes Core AI Strategy 

The engineering services company currently holds 1,706 patent filings globally, including 237 related specifically to AI and Generative AI technologies. More than 50 AI-focused patents have already been granted. 

Ashish Khushu, Chief Technology Officer of LTTS, said the company’s next milestone is reaching 500 AI and GenAI patents within 3 years, calling it “one of the key metrics” for demonstrating technological depth to clients. 

Rather than relying only on employee training numbers, LTTS is increasingly using patent creation as evidence of real engineering capability and innovation investment. 

Khushu said companies can no longer approach AI transformation using “the language of yesteryears” while competing in a rapidly evolving technology environment. 

He added that filing patents reflects long-term investments in engineering talent and skilling, noting that each patent often involves contributions from 20-30 professionals working behind the scenes. His AI-focused team currently consists of around 150 people. 

AI Adoption Moving into Production Environments 

LTTS said nearly 25% of its projects already involve AI interventions aimed at improving service-level agreements and operational efficiency. 

According to Khushu, client conversations around AI have now shifted beyond experimentation and proof-of-concept stages into actual production deployment across sectors such as manufacturing, design, automation and material analysis. 

The company believes adoption is still developing gradually within manufacturing industries because businesses continue evaluating return on investment from large-scale AI implementation. 

Khushu said customers may eventually witness product design cycles reducing “from 36 months to 18” as AI technologies become more deeply integrated into industrial workflows over the next 2 years. 

5 Year Focus Areas and Hiring Shift 

LTTS’ broader 5 year strategy includes expanding capabilities across software-defined vehicles, plant engineering, medical technologies, industrial automation and energy automation. 

The company is also increasing focus on data centre infrastructure, including compute systems, semiconductors, storage, hardware design and data engineering. 

Alongside technology investments, LTTS is redesigning its hiring strategy to create a more flexible talent pipeline. 

Munjay Singh, Chief Operating Officer of LTTS, said the company wants to build an “agile” supply chain for fresh engineering talent. 

Instead of depending mainly on campus hiring, the company now plans a balanced mix of campus recruits, off-campus hiring and internship conversions through hackathons. 

Singh explained that out of every 100 hires, around 50 could come through campuses, 25 through off-campus recruitment and the remaining through internships. 

Headcount Growth Remains Measured 

LTTS ended the previous financial year with 23,830 employees. The company plans to add around 500 employees during the current year after already adding the same number during the Q4 of FY26.
