Infosys has awarded an average performance bonus of 80% to most employees for Q1 FY26, according to sources. This bonus, which is higher than the previous quarter’s, varied between 75% and 89% depending on individual performance ratings. The payout follows Infosys’ strong financial results for the June quarter, where it also raised the lower end of its FY26 revenue growth forecast, driven by improved deal momentum and visibility. While the company didn’t respond to media queries, an internal note mentioned that bonus letters would be uploaded to employees’ e-dockets.
In the June quarter, Infosys emerged as the only major IT firm to post sequential revenue growth in constant currency, with revenue rising 3.3% to ₹42,279 crore, surpassing Bloomberg’s estimate of ₹41,724 crore. Although net profit dropped 1.6% QoQ to ₹6,921 crore, it remained above the expected ₹6,778 crore. Unlike peers like TCS, HCLTech, and Wipro—which saw declining revenues and margins—Infosys’ strong execution and stable margins helped it outperform in a sluggish market.
