Cognizant Beats TCS and Infosys but Cuts Its Own Growth Forecast — What That Means for Indian IT
Mint·Thursday, 30 July 2026
Cognizant outperformed rivals TCS and Infosys in recent results, and its stock rose despite the good news being mixed. The company cut its full-year growth guidance to at best 5.9%, the lowest outlook since the final quarter of 2024.
