Infosys, the firm run by Rishi Sunak’s father-in-law, in which his wife Akshata Murty is a major shareholder, is raking in massive profits from the UK government. Coincidence?

According to LBC,

Akshata Murty’s company received £7 million in public sector invoices last year up from £4.7 million in 2022.

The £7.029 million total in public sector invoices includes over £250,000 from the Government Property Agency (GPA), as well as a similar amount from the Care Quality Commission (£270,000) – whilst the London Borough of Brent totalled over £2 million in invoices with Infosys.

Within these invoices, Infosys were given contracts for “Information Communication Technology” (£1.5 million), “Consultant fees” (£1.1 million) as well as “IT Consultancy” (£868,000) across various levels of government.

Public sector invoices show the actual amount spent with a company over a certain period of time.

LBC can also reveal that in addition to these regular contract wins, the company has also won spots on a number of frameworks in recent years.

Whilst this offers no guarantee of work, it can “give the company an edge in winning contracts in the future” according to Tussell.

Labour’s Jonathan Ashworth has said the public should be told exactly why Infosys, with its close links to Sunak, seems to be cashing in.

It will be interesting to see what excuse Sunak devises, if he’s pressed on this issue, which again raises the question of corruption in the government to which he claims he has brought “honesty”.
