IT stocks are in focus as Nifty IT index is under strong selling pressure. The index is down 28% in 2026 against over 9% fall in Sensex and a 8% decline in the Nifty50 index. Fears over the AI-led disruption, Accenture's weak revenue forecasts and the US-Iran war have led to panic selling in the Indian stock market including the IT stocks.
Amid weakness in the IT sector sentiment, BofA Securities has initiated coverage on a select group of midcap IT companies, asserting that the sector's long-term performance will increasingly bank on companies' artificial intelligence strategies, disciplined capital allocation, scalable business models and durable competitive advantages.
