COMMENTARY


RK GUPTA, MANAGING DIRECTOR, TAURUS ASSET MANAGEMENT CO., NEW DELHI


"Having maintaining their revenue guidance is itself a big achievement for Infosys looking at the global scenario.

"I think the hard work is over for Infosys, since the US economy is showing signs of improvement and a lot of changes are happening within Infosys itself."
