Why the Infosys Share Price Is Getting Renewed Attention

1. Rupee at Rs 96.60 Is a Direct EPS Tailwind

Infosys generates approximately 60 percent of revenue from North America and a further 27 percent from Europe in US dollar or euro-denominated contracts. Every 1 percent depreciation in the Indian rupee adds approximately 0.3 to 0.4 percent to Infosys’s INR revenue and EPS. With the rupee at Rs 96.60 versus Rs 89.86 at the start of 2026, the 7.5 percent depreciation translates to roughly 2 to 3 percent incremental uplift to FY27 EPS above organic growth estimates. This is material at current valuations.

2. FY26 EPS Rs 71.58 and Final Dividend Rs 25

Infosys declared a final dividend of Rs 25 per share for FY26 with record date 10 June 2026. FY26 EPS was Rs 71.58. At Rs 1,181, the Infosys share price implies a PE of 16.50 times, significantly below the 24 to 28 times at which Infosys historically traded during IT sector upcycles. The dividend yield is 2.1 percent, providing income return while the stock waits for a re-rating catalyst.

3. Optimum Healthcare IT Acquisition and NDR Activity

Infosys completed the acquisition of Optimum Healthcare IT, a US healthcare digital transformation company, in May 2026. Management attended investor roadshows across Miami, Toronto, New York, San Francisco, Hong Kong and Singapore from 11 to 20 May 2026, active capital markets engagement that typically precedes institutional re-accumulation. India’s IT services market is projected to grow at 9 percent CAGR from USD 37 billion to USD 57 billion by 2030.

However, the rupee’s 7.5% depreciation to Rs 96.60 is now a meaningful FY27 EPS tailwind of 2 to 3%.
