After Board Coup, Infosys Chairman Nilekani Seeks to Calm Tumult

Infosys Ltd. Chairman Nandan Nilekani moved to reassure investors and employees after a dramatic coup by the firm’s founders Thursday night in which they ousted four directors and took back control of the troubled Indian outsourcing company.

“I want to put this company on the right stable path,” Nilekani, 62, said in a hastily arranged conference call. “I plan to be here as long as necessary and work as hard as necessary.”
