Infosys Announces Rs 18,000 Crore Share Buyback Amid Debate Over AI Investment Priorities

2 days ago

Infosys announced an Rs 18,000 crore share buyback, sparking debate about whether the company should prioritize returning cash to shareholders or investing more heavily in AI and innovation. The company holds cash reserves of over Rs 36,000 crore and this marks its fifth buyback in 8 years. The buyback will repurchase nearly 10 crore shares at an 18% premium, expected to boost earnings per share and return on equity. Critics point to Infosys's low R&D spending of Rs 850 crore (0.5% of revenue) compared to global peers like Accenture at 1.8% of revenue, and tech giants spending 12-25% on innovation. Supporters argue the buyback creates immediate shareholder value while the company simultaneously invests in AI through its Topaz platform, training over 2.75 lakh employees in AI, and deploying 300+ AI solutions for clients. Infosys has guided for cautious 1-3% revenue growth amid AI-led market disruptions and plans to hire 20,000 freshers to build AI capabilities.

Infosys Buyback Creates Tax Burden Shift to Shareholders Under New Rules

4 days ago

Infosys has announced a share buyback at Rs 1,800 per share, but new tax regulations now treat buyback proceeds as dividend income for shareholders rather than capital gains. The company will deduct 10% TDS (Rs 180 per share), leaving shareholders with a net payout of Rs 1,620 per share. However, shareholders must pay tax on the full Rs 1,800 amount based on their income tax slab - 20% or 30%. The original share cost becomes a capital loss that can only be offset against other capital gains, not dividend income. This creates different outcomes for different investor categories: those in higher tax brackets face disadvantages as they pay higher taxes on the full amount with limited relief, while small investors in lower tax brackets benefit more from the same structure. The buyback affects 26 lakh shareholders in what is described as a record Rs 18,000 crore share repurchase.

Infosys Launches Rs 18,000 Crore Share Buyback at 18% Premium

5 days ago

Infosys launched its largest-ever share buyback worth Rs 18,000 crore, offering to repurchase up to 10 crore shares at Rs 1,800 per share - an 18.1% premium to Friday's closing price of Rs 1,524. The buyback represents 2.41% of the company's paid-up capital and will be conducted through the tender route, requiring shareholder approval. This marks the company's fifth buyback since listing and first tender offer since 2017. The program aligns with Infosys' capital allocation policy of returning 85% of free cash flow to shareholders over FY 25-29. Analysts note the company generates over Rs 30,000 crore in annual free cash flow and offers a 4.4% dividend yield. The buyback is expected to take 3-4 months to complete, with the record date yet to be announced.
