What this transaction means for investors

Singapore-based Nalanda India Equity Fund’s purchase of additional shares in Genpact indicates a bullish outlook towards the stock, especially since it is the fund’s only holding.

Shares reached a 52-week low of $34.79 on Feb. 12, which may have sparked Nalanda’s decision to increase its stake. Investors dumped the stock on concerns artificial intelligence would eventually render Genpact’s business obsolete.

Despite this sentiment, the reality is that Genpact is doing well. It exited 2025 with sales of $5.1 billion, a 7% year-over-year increase.

The company expects to deliver another 7% in year-over-year revenue growth in 2026, as it assists businesses to navigate the adoption of AI. This suggests the advent of artificial intelligence is helping, not hindering, Genpact’s business.

But the sell-off in its stock has resulted in its valuation reaching a compelling level. Its price-to-earnings ratio of 12 is the lowest it’s been in a year, making now a good time to buy shares.
