Shares of information technology major Infosys declined 2.6% to their day’s low of Rs 1,027 on the BSE on Friday after global brokerages issued bearish calls on the stock after the company trimmed the upper end of its revenue growth guidance to 1.5%-3% in constant currency, while maintaining its operating margin outlook at 20-22%.
The lower revenue guidance indicates limited demand visibility despite strong deal wins and growing AI-led revenue. The IT sector continues to face slower discretionary spending, delayed client decision-making and pressure from AI-driven productivity gains.
