what happened

According to TradingView, Bengaluru-based IT services firm Infosys now expects full-year revenue growth of 1% to 2%, down from its earlier 1.5% to 3% projection. Its EBIT margin guidance was kept at 20% to 22%.

In dollar terms, second-quarter revenue came to $5,145 million, slightly below the $5,151 million CNBC-TV18 poll estimate. In rupees, revenue reached 49,244 crore against expectations of 49,194 crore. EBIT was 10,330 crore, under the 10,470 crore poll figure, and the margin stood at 21% versus 21.3% expected.

Shares ended little changed on Friday at 1,153.8 rupees, after opening higher following an overnight AI-driven sell-off in the sector. The stock is down 29% so far this year.

why it matters

The cut to revenue growth guidance matters for India's IT sector as a whole, since Infosys is one of the largest exporters of IT services. Lower annual growth with a steady margin suggests the company is focusing on efficiency rather than faster sales, amid pressure from AI tools.
