Infosys to Give 90% Bonus Payouts

India's second-largest IT services player, Infosys, will be giving out 90 per cent of performance bonuses to eligible employees for the second quarter (Q2) of FY25.

These bonuses are applicable to employees at the mid to junior levels, which comprise the bulk of the firm's workforce. While the average performance bonus payout is 90 per cent, the percentage will differ based on individual performance.

A source in the know said that the payouts will be part of November's salary.

A 90% bonus is good news for employees and the street, as it signals that the company's performance has matched its internal parameters.

Infosys has also revised its full-year guidance post-Q2 results to a range of 3.8% to 4.5%, up from the previous 3% to 4%, as it saw an improvement in discretionary spending.

The Q2 bonus is also higher than the firm's Q1 FY25 bonus, which was around 80%, and significantly higher than the 60% bonus in Q4 FY24.

Vedanta Eyes Copper Project Investments

Mining major Vedanta Ltd is looking to invest US$ 2 billion (bn) in significant copper projects in Saudi Arabia.

Vedanta Copper International, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vedanta Ltd, signed a pact with the Ministry of Investment and Ministry of Industries & Mineral Resources of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to set up a 400 kilo-tonne per annum (KTPA) greenfield copper smelter and refinery and a 300 kilo-tonne per annum (KTPA) copper rod project.

Vedanta plans to start its operations in Saudi with a 125 kilo-tonne per annum copper rod mill project, which needs an investment of US$ 30 million (m).

The land and technology needed for the project have been acquired; work on the project site is expected to begin shortly. According to the agency, commercial production of this project is likely to start in full swing by the fourth quarter of the financial year 2026.

Saudi Arabia's copper demand is at 365 kilo-tonne per annum, which is expected to double by 2035. The demand is currently fulfilled by importing copper from other countries.

The mining major's projects include a copper smelter and refinery project, along with the copper rod project, which is poised to be set up in Ras Al Khair Industrial City in Saudi Arabia.
