Infosys Share Buyback 2025: ₹18,000 Crore Opportunity And Tax Implications Explained
Are You Ready Investors? So, everyone’s fav tech giant Infosys has officially rolled out its biggest-ever share buyback worth ₹18,000 crore, and the window is now wide open, from November 20 to November 26.
Now, If you had Infosys shares in your demat on November 14, congratulations, you’re on the VIP list and eligible to tender. This buyback is not just a massive chunk in size, it is also grabbing plenty of curiosity across Dalal Street.
Will you ride the premium or hold tight for the long game? With a generous buyback price of ₹1,800 per share, the decision is tempting and desirable!
| Category | Details |
|---|---|
| Total Shares to Be Repurchased | 10 crore fully paid-up equity shares (face value ₹5 each) |
| Percentage of Total Equity Capital | Up to 2.41% |
| Buyback Price | ₹1,800 per share |
| Small Shareholder Reservation | 15% of buyback size or entitlement (whichever is higher) |

In a surprising move, Infosys’ promoter group, including Nandan M Nilekani and Sudha Murty, have opted out of the buyback entirely.
With a significant 13.05% stake, their non-participation could mean one thing for retail investors: a potentially higher acceptance ratio and more room for YOU to benefit.
