Infosys Share Price in Focus Ahead of Q4 Earnings Release: A Buying Opportunity?

Infosys Share Price Remains Under Pressure Ahead of Q4 Results Announcement

Infosys share price was trading over 1 percent lower in Thursday's trading session, as investors await the company's March quarter results announcement. The IT stock opened at ₹1,249 apiece today, a decline from the previous close of ₹1,268.60 on Wednesday. This follows a weak market sentiment, poor discretionary demand, and fear of AI-led disruption, which has led to a 4.58% decline in the stock's value over the past week and a 23% year-to-date (YTD) decline.

Three-Year and Five-Year Performance

Over the past three years, Infosys shares have given over 3% returns, however, the stock has fallen 5.62% in the past five years. Despite this, the company continues to have strong long-term fundamentals, supported by digital transformation demand and a healthy deal pipeline.

Brokerage Firm Predictions

Brokerage firm Kotak Institutional Equities (KIE) expects Infosys to report a 1% sequential (QoQ) decline in revenue, largely due to fewer billing days and typical seasonal softness. The firm also projects revenue growth guidance of 3–5%, including the contribution from the Versent acquisition, and 2.25–4.25% on an organic basis.

Seema Srivastava, Senior Research Analyst at SMC Global Securities, believes that Infosys' Q4FY26 performance is likely to remain largely steady with only modest sequential revenue growth. Srivastava noted that sequential margin improvement may provide some support, driven by cost optimisation efforts, better utilisation, and operational efficiencies.

Technical Outlook

Commenting on the technical outlook, Anshul Jain, Head of Research at Lakshmishree, said that the IT stock has corrected sharply by 29% in just 31 sessions, followed by a rebound toward the 50-day EMA that failed to sustain, indicating weak follow-through and lack of relative strength. Jain highlighted that the recent breakdown below the rising trendline at 1275 reflects continued pressure, but the stock now appears oversold after an extended decline.

The key overhang remains the likely conservative FY27 guidance, reflecting ongoing global uncertainties, trade-related concerns, and cautious client spending behaviour. This may restrict any meaningful re-rating in the near term, according to Srivastava.
