Infosys Ltd drops for fifth straight session
NSE moved lower.
22 Sept 2026 · Business Standard Mkts
Infosys Ltd is quoting at Rs 1025.7, down 1.23% on the day as on 13:19 IST on the NSE. The stock tumbled 31.51% in last one year as compared to a 7.29% slide in NIFTY and a 19.09% fall in the Nifty IT index.
The analysis
NSE reported Rs 1025.7, with movement of 1.23%, 7.29% and 31.51% attached to those lines. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Against that, the stock is -2.0% on the day at ₹993.55, and has returned -7.4% over three months. It sits 41% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The it sector has moved -3.2% over the same period, so Infosys is running 4.2 points behind its peers.
For Infosys, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the it peer set alongside it.
Why it matters
- With NSE involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
Market context
- The company directly in focus is INFY.
- Sector exposure: IT.
- The immediate tone of coverage reads negative.
