Shares of Infosys experienced significant selling pressure, leading to a drop to an over six-year low on Tuesday. The stock fell by as much as 3% to Rs 1,215.15 on the BSE, below its previous low from April 2023, marking its weakest level since December 2020.
In the current calendar year 2026, Infosys shares have declined around 25%, a much steeper fall compared to the 11.4% drop in the Nifty 50 index. This decline is attributed to concerns regarding the company’s revenue growth prospects amidst an uncertain demand environment.
The sharp decrease in share price has resulted in a decrease in Infosys’ market value, with its market capitalization dropping below Rs 5 trillion during the session, touching around Rs 4.93 trillion. However, by afternoon trade, the stock showed a slight recovery to Rs 1,234, down 1.3% from its previous close, with market capitalization hovering near the Rs 5 trillion mark.
Over the last five days, Infosys shares have yielded a negative return of 4.69% to investors, while in the past month, the stock has tumbled over 11.3%. The shares have seen a drop of nearly 19% in the last six months and over 24% year-to-date.
Despite these declines, Infosys is scheduled to hold a board meeting on April 22 and 23, 2026. The meeting will focus on approving the audited financial results for the quarter and full financial year ended March 31, 2026, as well as discussing the recommendation of a final dividend for the financial year.
