Infosys Limited has announced that its Board of Directors, at a meeting held today, has approved a proposal to buyback equity shares for a total amount of ₹ 18,000 Crore .
This decision follows a previous communication dated September 8, 2025, regarding the subject.
The approved buyback will be conducted at a price of ₹ 1,800/- per Equity Share, payable in cash. This proposal involves the purchase of up to 10,00,00,000 (ten crore) fully paid-up equity shares, each with a face value of ₹ 5/-.
These shares represent up to 2.41% of the Company’s total existing paid-up Equity Share capital on a standalone basis. The Buyback Size does not include expenses such as brokerage, filing fees, advisory fees, taxes, or other incidental costs.
The buyback offer is structured to be made from all equity shareholders of the Company as on a Record Date, which will be announced later, on a proportionate basis through the tender offer route.
This process will adhere to the provisions of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Buy-Back of Securities) Regulations, 2018, and the Companies Act, 2013.
It is important to note that the Buyback offer is subject to the approval of shareholders by way of a special resolution through postal ballot by remote e-voting, and all other applicable statutory approvals.
As per U.S. law, the buyback has not yet commenced and has not been approved by the Company’s shareholders.
For shareholders who hold American Depositary Shares (ADSs), participation in the buyback is possible if they cancel their ADSs and withdraw the underlying Equity Shares to become equity shareholders by the Record Date.
Such ADS holders will also have the option to re-deposit any Equity Shares that are not tendered or not accepted in the buyback, against the creation of new ADSs.
