Infosys Q3 results: Profit hit by labour codes, but FY26 guidance gets a lift

Infosys Q3 results: Profit hit by labour codes, but FY26 guidance gets a lift

Infosys on Wednesday boosted its FY26 revenue growth forecast to 3%-3.5%, following Q3 results that saw October-December revenue climb 8.9% to 454.79 billion rupees, slightly above expectations. Profit dipped 2.2% to 66.54 billion rupees, dragged down by a one-time 12.89 billion rupee charge related to India’s new labour codes. The guidance shift is crucial as investors seek clearer signals on demand in India’s IT services sector, where spending remains uneven and deal closures can suddenly falter. Ahead of the earnings, brokerages flagged furloughs and fewer working days in the December quarter as typical headwinds, focusing instead on deal ramp-ups and any tweaks to the yearly outlook.

Jan. 15 tax deadline looms: IRS maps 2026 filing season start, Free File and new 2026 tax brackets

The IRS’ Taxpayer Advocate Service this week urged people with substantial non-wage income to keep up with estimated tax payments, as a Jan. 15 deadline nears for the final installment tied to 2025 income. It said individuals who expect to owe $1,000 or more when they file generally must pay quarterly, with 2026 tax-year due dates of April 15, June 15, Sept. 15 and Jan. 15, 2027; corporations generally must pay if they expect to owe $500 or more. https://www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/news/tax-tips/estimated-payments/2026/01/ https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/first-quarter-tax-calendar The timing matters because the IRS has set Jan. 26 as the opening of the nation’s 2026 filing season, when it will begin accepting 2025 tax returns. Taxpayers have until April 15 to file and pay any tax due, and the IRS expects about 164 million individual returns, with most filed electronically. https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-announces-first-day-of-2026-filing-season-online-tools-and-resources-help-with-tax-filing
