Infosys Q4 Results: Key Highlights
Infosys, one of India’s leading IT companies, reported a 20.8% rise in consolidated net profit to Rs 8,501 crore in the January-March quarter of FY26. The company’s revenue from operations increased 13.4% to Rs 46,402 crore in Q4 FY26 compared to Rs 40,925 crore in the year-ago period.
In the full 2025-26 fiscal year, Infosys’ net profit climbed 10.20% to Rs 29,440 crore from Rs 26,713 crore in 2024-25. Its revenue from operations in FY26 rose 9.6% to Rs 178,650 crore.
Guidance for FY27
For FY27, Infosys has given a revenue growth forecast of 1.5 to 3.5% in constant currency terms. The company’s CEO and MD, Salil Parekh, spoke of the calendar year starting on a strong note, but pointed out that there was a ‘change in economic environment’ amid the West Asia conflict, though things appear to be stabilising now.
Infosys’ guidance for FY27 is driven by momentum in financial services, utilities, and AI services. The company sees large opportunities in AI services and expects acceleration of growth in financial services and the energy, utility, resources, and services vertical.
Employee Headcount and Hiring Plans
The total employee headcount stood at 328,594 at the end of Q4 FY26, marking a sequential drop of 8,440 staff from 3,37,034 in Q3 FY26, but an increase of 5,016 staff compared to 3,23,578 in Q4 FY25.
Infosys Chief Financial Officer Jayesh Sanghrajka attributed the quarterly fluctuations to a softer volume environment and the broader demand-supply equation playing out in the market. The company plans to maintain its momentum in hiring, setting a target to hire 20,000 freshers in FY27.
Large Deals and Sectoral Growth
The company secured large deals with a total contract value (TCV) of USD 3.2 billion in Q4. For the full year FY26, large deal TCV hit USD 14.9 billion, of which 55% was net new.
Life sciences led the Q4 sectoral growth at 11.6%, followed by communication at 9% and energy, utilities, resources, and services at 6.7%. Financial Services posted a moderate growth of 2.9%, manufacturing grew 1.3%, and retail was nearly flat at 0.5%.
AI Services and Future Growth
Infosys acknowledged that AI is beginning to cannibalise its traditional IT services and business process management (BPM) models. However, Parekh said that this AI-led compression or deflation in legacy business is being offset by a surge in new AI-driven services.
The company sees a large addressable market for AI services across AI strategy, engineering, data, process, legacy modernisation, physical AI, and trust. As the Indian IT sector continues to evolve, Infosys is well-positioned to leverage the growth opportunities in AI services and drive future growth.
