Infosys Buyback Record Date: Infosys, India’s second-largest IT services company, will be in focus on Thursday, November 13, as investors rush to qualify for its upcoming share buyback. Today marks the last trading day to purchase Infosys shares and become eligible for the Rs 18,000 crore buyback programme.
Infosys had earlier announced that its board approved the buyback of up to 10 crore fully paid-up equity shares with a face value of Rs 5 each, aggregating to Rs 18,000 crore. The buyback will be conducted via the tender offer route at a price of Rs 1,800 per share on a proportionate basis.
Promoters, including co-founders Narayan Murthy, Nandan Nilekani, and Sudha Murty, have chosen not to participate in the buyback. If the offer is fully subscribed, promoter shareholding in Infosys will increase slightly from 13.05 per cent to 13.37 per cent, while public shareholding will decrease to 86.95 per cent.
As per the company’s filing dated November 6, the record date has been fixed as Friday, November 14, 2025, for determining the shareholders eligible to participate. Under the T+1 settlement cycle, investors must buy Infosys shares on or before November 13 to qualify. Purchases made on or after November 14 will not be eligible for participation.
Infosys will repurchase up to 10 crore fully paid-up equity shares with a face value of Rs 5 each through the tender offer route at Rs 1,800 per share.
