Infosys Share Buyback: Infosys will buy back shares, note the date

News Topical, Digital Desk : IT giant Infosys Ltd has informed the stock exchange that its board will consider a proposal on buyback of equity shares in the meeting to be held on 11 September 2025. Buyback means that the company buys back its own shares from the market. This increases the demand for shares, and often the share price rises.

Infosys will conduct its fifth share buyback after its listing. The company's board of directors will consider the buyback proposal of equity shares at a meeting on September 11, 2025.

The company's previous buyback prices were ₹1850 per share in 2023, ₹1750 per share in 2021, ₹800 per share in 2019 and ₹575 per share (bonus adjusted) in 2017.

Given Infosys' cash-rich business model and strong balance sheet, the market is considering it a positive move for investors.

The buyback announcement comes at a time when Infosys has not performed well in the stock market, although the company has recorded an annual net profit growth of 9 per cent in the first quarter of 2025. Earlier, the company had completed a buyback of Rs 9300 crore in 2022.

This move of the company is believed to return additional cash to shareholders in addition to dividends. This initiative has been taken amid the current weak situation of the IT sector. Authorized information and confirmation of the buyback will be released after the board meeting on September 11.
