Infosys guidance lowered

The guidance cut shows that demand visibility remains limited despite deal wins and AI-led revenue traction. The IT sector has been facing slower discretionary spending, delayed decision-making by clients and pressure from AI-led productivity gains.

CEO and MD Salil Parekh said AI momentum is converting into revenue and helping Infosys gain market share.
"AI momentum is now rapidly converting into revenue, which demonstrates how Infosys' differentiated enterprise AI value proposition is translating into consistent market share gains," Parekh said.

He said strong large deal wins, powered by Infosys Topaz, showed client confidence in the company’s ability to be a strategic partner for AI transformation.
