Suyog Kulkarni, Senior Research Analyst at Reliance Securities, too said that Infosys reported better than expected numbers.

"Infosys Q2FY22 earnings are better than our expectations both on a revenue front and on the margin front. The guidance that they are giving is also in line with our expectations. So we consider it as a beat," he said.

Kulkarni added that he prefers Infosys over TCS in the current scenario because he believes that their revenue growth performance will be higher.

"Infosys is presently trading at a higher single-digit discount compared to TCS but it seems like this year the revenue growth performance of Infosys will be higher than TCS. So in our pecking order also we prefer Infosys over TCS," he said.
