The Bangalore-based company has said in a filing to Nasdaq � �additional information for 2010-11� � that the average age of its employees in 2011 stood at 27 years. However, it did not separately file the figures for 2010. The trend is similar with other IT service providers, including Wipro and TCS. While the average age of employees at Wipro was about 27 in the last financial year, in TCS it was slightly higher at 29.

During the year ended March, the percentage of employees in the age group of 20-25 at Infosys had fallen to 45.8 per cent from 48.6 per cent last year. The number of employees from this age group, however, has risen from 55,334 in 2010 to 59,897. On the other hand, the percentage of employees in the age group of 26-30 has gone up to 34.5 per cent from 33.5 per cent in 2010. The percentage in the 31-40 age group increased to 17.6 per cent from 16 per cent.
