INFOSYS: A stock to consider adding to your portfolio

Hello,

Infosys Limited (NSE: INFY, NYSE: INFY) has long been one of the crown jewels of India’s IT sector. Founded in 1981, the company has grown into a global leader in consulting, technology, and outsourcing services. Today, Infosys is not only a key player in India’s digital transformation but also a significant competitor on the global stage against names like Accenture, IBM, and Capgemini. Infosys offers a broad suite of services—ranging from application development, engineering, and cloud solutions to its flagship banking platform, Finacle. Its operations are diversified across industries:

• Financial Services & Insurance
• Manufacturing & Hi-Tech
• Energy, Utilities & Communication
• Retail, Consumer & Logistics
• Life Sciences & Healthcare

The competition is intense. Infosys battles with domestic rivals like TCS, Wipro, HCL Tech, LTIMindtree, and globally with Accenture, Cognizant, IBM, and Capgemini. Still, Infosys has carved out a strong position thanks to its cost efficiency, high-quality talent pool, and scalable digital solutions.

One thing investors love about Infosys is consistency. Over the last 10 years, revenue has climbed from ₹501.33B in 2013 to ₹1.63T in 2024. That’s more than 3x growth in just a decade. Even in the last financial year, despite global tech spending slowdown, revenues still grew +6% YoY.

Net Income tells a similar story. In 2013, the company earned ₹106.56B, but by 2024 that figure swelled to ₹267.13B. Net margins have stayed healthy, averaging ~16% over the last three years. Return metrics are impressive too:
• ROA: 18.57%
• ROE: 30.63%

Infosys runs a very clean balance sheet. Assets stood at ₹1.38T in 2024 against a very manageable ₹83.59B in debt. That low leverage gives the company flexibility to weather downturns and invest in growth.

Cash is king, and Infosys has plenty of it. Free cash flow has grown from ₹94.56B in 2013 to ₹354.97B in 2024. This allows the company to fund innovation, buy back shares, and keep rewarding investors through dividends.

Infosys is set to release its next earnings report on October 16th, 2025, with analysts expecting an EPS of ₹17.47. This could be a key event to watch for short-term volatility.

From a technical perspective the stock has been on a sideways move since 2022 and is currently trading at the bottom of the flat channel. We see this as a perfect time for investors to join into the upward move as the current valuations present a perfect entry opportunity. We see INR 1960 as a short term achieve.
