Why the Street Is Watching Infosys Results Closely

Growth this quarter is expected to come from more billing days and strong performance in the financial services vertical. While discretionary tech spending remains stable, large deals and steady demand in core markets are expected to support performance.

Despite cost pressures from wage hikes and onboarding of large deals, Infosys is likely to hold margins steady, helped by internal efficiencies.

What to Expect on Guidance

According to Zee Business research team, Infosys may slightly raise its full-year revenue guidance for FY26 in constant currency terms — possibly to a range of 1 to 4 per cent, up from 1 to 3 per cent earlier. The company is also expected to maintain its margin guidance at 20 to 22 per cent.

Big Deals Still Coming In

One of the key positives this quarter could be Infosys reporting large deal wins worth USD 3 billion — that’s about Rs 25,800 crore — highlighting strong client traction and a healthy deal pipeline.

What Investors Will Be Watching

All eyes will be on Infosys’ management commentary around client budgets, demand from the US and Europe, deal conversion timelines, and pricing. With peers already signalling a gradual recovery in tech spending, Infosys’ tone on the outlook could set the stage for the rest of the IT earnings season.
