Infosys Ltd has been gaining attention on Friday. On April 4, 2025, Infosys share price (NSE: INFY) opened at ₹1,460.50, down from its previous close of ₹1,496.50. At 10:19 AM, the share price of Infosys was trading at ₹1,459.20, down by 2.49% on the NSE. The stock price touched its day’s low so far at ₹1,455.35. 

The focus on Infosys and the broader IT sector comes in the wake of fresh tariff announcements by US President Donald Trump. On April 2, Trump imposed steep reciprocal tariffs on imports from key trading partners, including India and China. The move includes a 27% tariff on Indian goods and a 34% tariff on Chinese imports. 

Post the announcement, Infosys opened at ₹1,534.65 on April 3. The stock dropped to a low of ₹1,485.05 before settling at ₹1,496.50 at the close.

Nifty IT Index in the Red

The Nifty IT index also reflected broader weakness in the sector, opening lower at 34,224.60 compared to its last close of 34,757.25. On Friday, as of 10:17 AM, the index was down by 2.63%. Other IT majors, including Wipro, Mphasis, Persistent Systems, HCL Technologies, and Coforge, also saw sharp declines, with losses ranging from 2% to over 5%.

Conclusion

The recent decline in Infosys shares could be investor concerns over geopolitical developments, particularly the new US tariff regime targeting Indian and Chinese imports. As the situation evolves, market participants will be closely watching for further policy announcements and their potential implications on India’s export-driven IT sector.
