Indian IT services giant Infosys has incurred a penalty of €175,000 (approximately Rs 2 crore) from a French labor authority, DRIEETS Île-de-France. The fine was imposed after an investigation revealed that the company’s employee working time recording system did not fully comply with local legal requirements.
According to an exchange filing dated July 25, 2026, the French authority identified specific shortcomings within Infosys's system. These issues primarily concerned the reliability, auditability, and monitoring capabilities of the time-tracking system for certain categories of its employees in France.
Despite the regulatory action, Infosys has asserted that the monetary penalty is not material and is unlikely to have any significant impact on its financial position, operational activities, or overall business. The Bengaluru-headquartered company also provided clarification regarding the timing of its disclosure to stock exchanges, stating that additional time was necessary to thoroughly verify the information received and determine the appropriate course of action before making the public announcement.
