Infosys rolls out 65-80% bonus for Q1

IT major Infosys has given out an average performance bonus of 70% to eligible employees for the first quarter of FY27. Sources said the bonus — in the range of 65-80% — was similar to the previous quarter’s payout and 10 percentage points lower than the year ago.

While employees who received a “commendable” rating will be given close to 80% appraisal, those who were given a “met expectations” rating will be paid around 65%. In the fourth quarter of FY26, Infosys offered an average performance bonus of 70%, which was 15 percentage points lesser than the December payout of 85% — the highest in the recent past. The company did not respond to an email for comments.
