US SEC grants tech giant Infosys exemptive relief for ₹18,000 crore buyback

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has granted exemptive relief for Infosys' share buyback as requested by the company, according to a statutory filing on Friday. The exemptive relief from the US securities' regulator is on certain aspects of the tender offer procedures, due to conflicting regulatory requirements between Indian and US laws for tender offer buybacks, Infosys said in the BSE filing. The Board of India's second largest IT services company on Thursday green-lit its largest-ever share buyback programme worth Rs 18,000 crore. The record buyback entails Infosys buying 10 crore fully paid-up equity shares of a face value of Rs 5 each, representing up to 2.41 per cent of the total paid-up equity share capital, at Rs 1,800 per share. "We would like to inform you that, by way of a letter from the SEC dated September 11, 2025, the company has obtained the requested exemptive relief from the SEC," it said.
