Shares of Infosys on Thursday jumped over 4 per cent after the company reported a better-than-expected 12 per cent rise in its second-quarter net profit.<\/p>\n
The stock gained 4.40 per cent to Rs 1,784.05 on the BSE.<\/p>\n
At the NSE, it jumped 4.35 per cent to Rs 1,783.60.<\/p>\n
“Reported strong financial performance with both revenue and EBIT margin above estimates. The deal booking remains strong and would support growth momentum,” according to a report by YES Securities on Q2 FY22 result update on Infosys.<\/p>\n
Infosys Ltd, India’s second-largest IT services company, on Wednesday reported a better-than-expected 12 per cent rise in its second-quarter net profit on more contracts from global businesses, a reason that also led to raising its annual revenue outlook.<\/p>\n
Net profit in July-September at Rs 5,421 crore, or Rs 12.88 a share, was 11.9 per cent higher than Rs 4,845 crore (or Rs 11.42 a share) net profit in the same period a year back.<\/p>\n
The net profit, which is 4.4 per cent higher than the preceding June quarter, came on the back of broad-based growth across verticals and geographies, strong revenue contribution from the Daimler deal, and higher adoption of digital transformation by clients.<\/p>\n
The firm raised its forecast for annual revenue growth to 16.5 per cent to 17.5 per cent in fiscal 2022, from 14-16 per cent growth predicted in July.<\/p>\n
This is on the back of expectations of winning more contracts from global businesses, expanding their digital offerings during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
