Smart Money Verdict synthesis of derivatives, deals, and promoter files

Derivatives signal Long Buildup
Derivative traders are adding fresh longs (OI up +2.1%) on price strength (+4.8%).

Analysis what the data is telling us about INFY

In the last completed session, Infosys Ltd. closed +4.79% with futures open interest moving +2.1%. That combination — price rising while OI builds — is classified as a Long Buildup, meaning derivative traders are adding fresh bullish positions into strength rather than merely covering existing shorts. The option PCR of 0.92 is balanced — no clear directional preference from option writers. Max-pain strike at ₹1,100 sits 2.7% below the current price, a mild magnet near expiry.

There have been no notable bulk or block deals from FIIs, mutual funds, or insurance companies in Infosys Ltd. over the last 30 sessions.

Putting it together, the smart-money picture for Infosys Ltd. points to a supportive setup at the next open.
