Indian IT Sector Rally Driven by Strong Quarterly Earnings
What happened
The Nifty IT index increased by 11.7% during the week, driven by better-than-expected September quarter earnings and robust future guidance from firms like Accenture and HCLTech. This rally occurred even as semiconductor-heavy Asian markets declined amid concerns over AI investment profitability. India’s IT services sector is showing signs of stabilization after a period of cost-cutting.

Why it matters
The performance indicates a return of investor interest to the Indian IT sector, which had previously been over-owned by overseas funds. The rally added ₹2.8 lakh crore to the combined market capitalization of Nifty IT constituents, which accounted for 7.52% of the Nifty by weighting at the end of the September quarter.
