Infosys: From Pune Startup to Global IT Giant Infosys, launched in Pune in 1981 by seven engineers with a modest $250 capital, embarked on a remarkable journey. Initially registered as Infosys Consultants Private Limited, the company relocated to Bangalore in 1983 and transitioned to Infosys Technologies Limited in 1992, going public the following year. Its initial public offering, initially undersubscribed, received a crucial boost from Morgan Stanley, propelling its share price significantly. The company's Nasdaq listing in 1999, a first for an Indian company, cemented its global presence, leading to a surge in its share price and establishing it among the top Nasdaq companies by market capitalization. Subsequently, its ADR listing shifted to NYSE Euronext to enhance accessibility for European investors. Significant milestones included visits from prominent figures like former British Prime Minister David Cameron and the establishment of offices in the US, notably serving clients like Harley-Davidson. Expansion continued with the launch of EdgeVerve Systems, a subsidiary dedicated to enterprise software, and strategic asset transfers. Infosys's revenue growth has been exponential, crossing US$10 million in FY 1995, US$100 million in FY 1999, US$1 billion in FY 2004, and US$10 billion in FY 2017. In FY 2023, the company reached US$18 billion in revenue. Its recent foray into AI with the launch of the Aster platform further demonstrates Infosys's commitment to technological innovation.
