Infosys Gives 80% Average Bonus Payout To Employees For Q1 FY26: Report
IT major Infosys has rolled out its quarterly performance bonus for the first quarter of FY2025-26, with an organisation-wide average payout of 80 per cent, according to a Moneycontrol report citing an internal communication. The move follows the Bengaluru-headquartered company's strong June 2025 quarter earnings, where it beat analyst expectations on both profit and revenue.
The bonus, applicable to employees in Band 6 and below (which largely includes junior and mid-level staff), is linked to performance ratings across levels. For PL4 employees, payouts range between 80-89 per cent, while PL5 employees will see 78-87 per cent, and PL6 employees will receive 75-85 per cent, depending on their performance category.
At PL4, those rated “Outstanding" will get 89 per cent of their eligible bonus, while those marked “Needs Attention" are set at 80 per cent. At PL6, top performers will receive 85 per cent, with the lowest band fixed at 75 per cent. Infosys has informed employees that their individual bonus letters will be uploaded to their e-dockets.
The average payout this quarter is higher than the previous one, which stood at around 65 per cent for eligible staff.
The company posted an 8.7 per cent year-on-year rise in net profit to Rs 6,921 crore in Q1, while revenue grew 7.5 per cent to Rs 42,279 crore, surpassing Street forecasts.
This comes against the backdrop of wider compensation changes at the company. Infosys had earlier announced that it would roll out 6–8 percent annual salary hikes for employees in India starting January 2025, with a second phase in April 2025.
“Broadly, the comp (annual salary increment) that we are expecting is 6-8% in India, and the overseas comps will be in line with the earlier comp reviews," Infosys CFO Jayesh Sanghrajka had said after its Q3FY25 results.
