At 11.55 am, Infosys stock gained 4.65% to Rs 691.20 on volumes of 1.19 crore on the NSE

ICICI Securities in its report had said there has been no perceivable inconsistency in the key data points shared by Infosys.

BusinessLine reported recently most analysts are suggesting that the whistleblower group’s allegations against the top management are also indicative of troubles elsewhere, particularly on the people/talent management front.
