Is it wise to buy Infosys at the moment?
The company’s management has predicted double digit growth in the company due to large deals, more offshoring, better utilization. The operating margin of the company is also likely to increase. Infosys had announced a share buyback after the announcement of the last quarter’s results. Due to this the company is looking bullish towards growth. Ashish Biswas of CapitalVia Global Research told Finance Express Online that the stock is currently looking overbought on the chart. Therefore, by partially booking the position, one should wait for a fall from Rs 1390 to Rs 1410. After that you should buy more in it.
