Infosys performance: Infosys reduced its revenue growth forecast from 1%-3.5% to 1%-2.5%. The unexpected part was the adjustment in revenue projection for FY24.

In constant currency terms, it now expects sales growth of 1% to 2.5% in FY24. It did, however, maintain its year-end operating margin forecast of 20%-22%. In its Q1FY24 results, Infosys significantly reduced its FY24 revenue forecast from 4%-7% to 1%-3.5%.
“Our future prospects are greatly enhanced by the big and mega contract wins, but as we anticipate the ramp-ups that will occur towards the end of the year, as we previously disclosed, even some of those ramp-ups will be pushed out, so that’s where we are with the guidance,” said Salil Parekh, CEO, and MD in a press conference today.
