Q4 results disappointed

Last week itself, the company presented its fourth quarter results. Infosys reported a net profit of Rs 6,128 crore in the fourth quarter of FY2023, a year-on-year growth of over 7 percent this year. At the same time, an annual increase of 16 percent was registered in the company's revenue. However, Infosys delivered worse-than-expected results with only 4 to 7 percent revenue growth for FY24.

India's second-largest software firm reported a 7.8 percent year-on-year rise in net profit for the March quarter at Rs 6,128 crore.

Decrease in revenue in constant currency

Revenue growth in constant currency for FY23 came in at 15.4 percent, lower than expected. After announcing Q3 earnings in January this year, it raised the revenue guidance to 16 to 16.5 percent from the earlier estimated band of 15 to 16 percent. Thus there was a decline of 3.2 percent in constant currency.
