India's Infosys Defers Plans to Sell $75 Mln in ADRs This Year

Bangalore, India, Nov. 19 (Bloomberg) -- Infosys
Technologies Ltd., a computer software producer, deferred plans
to sell a maximum of $75 million in American depositary receipts
in 1998 because of a slump in demand for new shares in the U.S.
''There has been no initial public offerings in the U.S. of
late,'' said N.R. Narayana Murthy, the chairman of one of India's
best known and highly profitable software companies. ''The
primary capital market there is down right night now.''

He said the company will sell the receipts once the market
for new shares turns buoyant in the U.S.

Infosys announced the share sale plans in December last year
to raise money to invest in technology and infrastructure and
create value for its brands as it breaks into competitive markets
in the U.S. and Europe.
