The country's second-largest IT major said revenue will grow 1.5% to 3% in the current fiscal through March 2027 on a constant currency basis.
The Bengaluru-based firm had guided for 1.5% to 3.5% growth in April. According to Bloomberg estimates, analysts were forecasting 3.4% growth on an average.
Infosys and country's largest IT major Tata Consultancy Services are cutting expenses and reducing graduate hiring amid a falling demand for legacy IT projects as clients are banking more on artificial intelligence.
Meanwhile, Infosys announced on Thursday that net profit for Q1 grew 12% to Rs 7769 crore against a profit of Rs 6921 crore in the year ago period. Revenue from operations climbed 14% to Rs 48,211 crore in June 2026 quarter compared to Rs 42,279 crore in Q1FY26.
Artificial intelligence continued to play a larger role in Infosys' business during the quarter, with AI-led services contributing 8.2% of the company's total revenue, up from 5.5% in the December quarter. The increase reflects growing enterprise spending on AI transformation projects and the company's expanding portfolio of AI-enabled offerings.
Infosys also reported healthy momentum in large deal wins. Contracts valued at more than $30 million totalled $3.6 billion during the quarter, improving from $3.2 billion in the preceding quarter, although slightly lower than the $3.8 billion recorded in the corresponding period last year.
Among the key client additions during the quarter were Sterling Bank of Asia, semiconductor manufacturer GlobalFoundries, and Malaysia-based healthcare provider IHH Healthcare. These wins span the banking, semiconductor and healthcare sectors, underscoring Infosys' broad-based demand across industries and geographies.
Infosys' shares closed 0.05% lower at Rs 1051.80 on BSE ahead of the Q1 results today. Market cap of the firm stood at Rs 4.26 lakh crore.
