The second biggest IT company in India, Infosys, published its second-quarter results

IT giant Infosys on Thursday posted a 13.2 per cent increase in consolidated net profit at Rs 7,364 crore for the second quarter ended September 30, 2025.

 

Last year, during the same period, the company had logged a net profit of Rs 6,506 crore. 

 

Infosys informed that Revenue from operations grew 8.6 per cent to Rs 44,490 crore during the quarter. 

 

Regarding the employee headcount, the earnings report mentioned an increase by 8,203 to 3,31,991 during the quarter. 

 

Infosys stock saw a turbulent day in trading, closing 0.24 per cent lower for the day. 

 

Year-to-date, shares have tumbled close to 22 per cent, while year-on-year, the rout was 23 per cent—shaving off most of its post-COVID gains.

 

Infosys market valuation dips

Infosys is a leading Indian IT services company, second only to Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) in market capitalisation. As of last week, it was the seventh most valuable listed company in India. 

 

However, the company's valuation has taken a nosedive in the past year.  In October 2024, the market cap stood at around Rs 8 trillion (Rs 8 lakh crore). This month, it stands closer to Rs 6 trillion.

 

Despite this, Infosys posted a 6.1 per cent year-on-year growth in overall revenues of Rs 1,62,990 crore for the last fiscal year. 

 

Back in May, Chairman Nandan Nilekani noted, "Tariffs are further driving home the point that we need to diversify our sourcing. Tariffs will be differentiated across products and countries and will likely keep changing. Bilateral and regional rules of trade will dominate. Supply chains will continue to shift as tariffs become another form of arbitrage."
