Infosys: Financing an Indian Software Start-Up.
Abstract
Describes the financing and growth of Infosys, an Indian software start-up. Infosys defies a number of stereotypes about barriers to entrepreneurship in India. The company was founded by a small group of entrepreneurs with little equity and without backing from a large family conglomerate. While Infosys has been very successful recently, there was also a highly uncertain period in the company's history. At the time of the case, Mr. Murthy, Infosys' CEO, and his team once again face important challenges regarding future growth and financing. Infosys' shares trade on the Bombay Stock Exchange. The company must decide whether it should seek to also list its shares on a U.S. stock exchange and, if yes, whether to list on NASDAQ or NYSE.
