Infosys share price Rs 1039.1 (-7.83%) on 19 Jun 2026. Open Rs 1062.3; Day High Rs 1066.0; Day Low Rs 1033.9. June 18 close Rs 1127.5. Accenture fell 18% on FY26 guidance cut.

Infosys share price fell 7.83% to Rs 1039.1 on 19 June 2026, with an intraday low of Rs 1033.9, as the Accenture-triggered selloff swept across the Indian IT sector. Accenture crashed approximately 18% on Wall Street on 18 June after narrowing its FY2026 revenue growth forecast to 3-4% in local currency from 3-5%, sending Indian IT ADRs down 7-10% overnight and pushing Infosys to its lowest level in recent months when markets opened on 19 June. The stock had closed at Rs 1127.5 on June 18 before the full impact of Accenture’s results became clear.

Why Infosys Share Price Is Falling on 19 June 2026

The Accenture guidance cut is the immediate trigger for Infosys’s decline today. But understanding why Infosys is particularly in focus requires looking at its specific business profile and how it maps to the risks Accenture highlighted.

Use the Univest Screener to analyse Infosys fundamentals vs peer IT stocks on today’s dip

1. Infosys Has the Highest ADR-to-NSE Transmission Today

Infosys ADR fell approximately 7% to $10.86 on June 18 in US trading after Accenture’s results, making Infosys the IT stock with the most direct ADR-to-NSE transmission today. Infosys is the most directly comparable Indian IT company to Accenture: both focus on enterprise IT transformation, both have similar vertical mixes, and Accenture’s guidance is frequently used as a proxy for Infosys’s revenue environment. The 7.83% fall in Infosys share price today is approximately matching the overnight ADR decline.

2. Infosys Had Raised FY27 Guidance But Accenture Creates Doubt

Earlier in 2026, Infosys had issued a constructive FY27 revenue growth guidance based on its own pipeline and deal wins. The Accenture guidance cut now creates uncertainty about whether Infosys’s guidance will hold for Q1 FY27. Investors are asking whether Infosys’s bookings will follow Accenture’s declining trend. The Q1 FY27 result and guidance update, expected in mid-July 2026, will be the definitive test of whether Infosys’s trajectory diverges from Accenture’s.

3. Infosys Share Price Is Testing Near 52-Week Low Territory

With an intraday low of Rs 1,033.90, Infosys share price is approaching its 52-week low, established during the February-March 2026 IT sector correction. The simultaneous 52-week low in the Nifty IT index (26,634 intraday) suggests the sector is retesting its worst levels of the year. Long-term investors should note that Infosys at these levels trades at a meaningfully lower PE than its historical average, but near-term selling pressure from FII and institutional rebalancing may continue through the day.

Conclusion

Infosys share price fell 7.83% to Rs 1039.1 on 19 June 2026, driven by the broad IT sector selloff after Accenture’s 18% fall on Wall Street. The stock touched an intraday low of Rs 1033.9 from a June 18 close of Rs 1127.5. The Nifty IT index itself fell to a fresh 52-week low of 26,634 today. Whether Infosys recovers depends on the durability of the Accenture warning as a signal for all IT companies versus just US-federal-exposed players. Monitor deal wins and Q1 FY27 guidance.

Why is Infosys share price falling today on 19 June 2026?

Ans. Infosys share price fell 7.83% to Rs 1039.1 on 19 June 2026 because Accenture crashed approximately 18% on Wall Street on June 18 after narrowing its full-year FY2026 revenue growth guidance to 3-4% in local currency from 3-5%. Accenture’s guidance cut is widely treated as a bellwether for global enterprise IT spending. The weakness translated directly into Indian IT stocks at opening, with Infosys gapping down sharply from its June 18 close of Rs 1127.5.

What is Infosys share price today on 19 June 2026?

Ans. Infosys share price (NSE: INFY) is Rs 1039.1 on 19 June 2026 as of early morning trading, down 7.83% from the June 18 close of Rs 1127.5. The stock opened at Rs 1062.3, touched an intraday high of Rs 1066.0 and a low of Rs 1033.9. The 52-week high is approximately Rs 1620 and the 52-week low is approximately Rs 1033, suggesting today’s fall is testing or approaching the 52-week low end.

What was Accenture’s Q3 FY2026 result?

Ans. Accenture reported Q3 FY2026 revenue of $18.7 billion, up 3% in local currency. EPS came in at $3.80 per diluted share, up 9% year-on-year and above the consensus estimate of $3.71. However, the company narrowed its full-year FY2026 revenue growth forecast to 3-4% in local currency from 3-5%, citing approximately 1% headwind from US federal government business weakness. New bookings declined to $19.3 billion from $19.7 billion year-on-year. Accenture also announced $9 billion in cybersecurity acquisitions, including Dragos for $4.2 billion.

What is Infosys’s revenue exposure to the US?

Ans. Infosys derives a significant portion of its revenue from US clients, which is why Accenture’s guidance cut for US enterprise technology spending creates a direct negative read-through. For Infosys, the US market represents the largest geography by revenue. The segments most exposed to Accenture’s warning are BFSI, manufacturing and retail, which are major verticals for Indian IT companies. Any slowdown in discretionary IT spending from US corporates would affect Infosys’s deal pipeline in these segments.

Is Infosys share price at a 52-week low today?

Ans. Infosys share price at Rs 1039.1 with a day low of Rs 1033.9 is testing the lower end of its 52-week range. The 52-week high of approximately Rs 1620 was reached when IT sector sentiment was more positive in late 2025. The Nifty IT index itself hit a fresh 52-week low of 26,634 on June 19, down approximately 32% from its 52-week high of 39,530 (December 22, 2025). Infosys shares have been under broad IT sector pressure since the January 2026 US-Iran conflict, US tariff concerns and persistent AI disruption narrative.

What is the market cap of Infosys?

Ans. The market capitalisation of Infosys (NSE: INFY) is approximately Rs ~Rs 4.36 lakh crore as of June 19, 2026, based on the current share price of Rs 1039.1. Infosys is one of the major constituents of the Nifty IT index, which fell approximately 5.90% to 26,785 on June 19, 2026, a fresh 52-week low. The entire Nifty IT sector has seen a significant derating from its peak of 39,530 in December 2025 to current levels.

Will Infosys share price recover after today’s fall?

Ans. Whether Infosys share price recovers depends on whether Accenture’s guidance cut reflects a temporary or structural slowdown. The US federal government IT spending weakness cited by Accenture is somewhat specific to Accenture’s client mix. Infosys has relatively lower US government exposure. However, the declining new bookings at Accenture signal a broader enterprise IT spending caution. Any recovery in Infosys share price requires either a stabilisation in global IT demand signals or a company-specific deal win to restore confidence. Monitor Q1 FY27 guidance from Infosys and TCS in July.

Should I buy Infosys at today’s lower price?

Ans. Whether to buy Infosys share price at today’s Rs 1039.1 depends on your investment horizon and risk tolerance. The Accenture guidance cut has created a sector-wide selloff, but not all individual company outlooks are equally impacted. Infosys’s own guidance (issued after Q4 FY26 results) would be more directly indicative of its specific trajectory than Accenture’s US-federal-driven revision. Long-term investors who believe AI will drive structural IT services demand growth may find today’s dip interesting, but near-term volatility is likely to persist.
