Nomura, which termed Coforge its "top pick in the mid-cap India IT services sector," said the company is banking on a solution-led sales strategy to maintain its growth trajectory.
In the past one month, TCS, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, HCL Technologies, LTIMindtree, Persistent Systems and L&T Technology Services have rallied between 9 per cent and 15 per cent.
Valuations across the sector remain attractive, but Nomura stays selective. It has rolled forward its valuation framework to H1FY28 while maintaining target multiples.
Analysts attributed the up move to a pullback rally after sharp declines in past sessions. The index is currently 22.72% below its 52-week high of 46,088.90 and is down about 14.8% so far this year.
Technical charts suggest that the IT index may gain another 5%, with heavyweights Infosys, TCS and HCL Technologies possibly rallying up to 17%. Wipro and Tech Mahindra, however, may see tepid trends.
Analysts forecast a sequential decline in Wipro's Ebit margin despite rupee depreciation, mainly due to upfront costs linked to large deals, analysts said
Investor focus is expected on TechM's deal-win momentum, growth in financial services, H-1B visa risks, deal pipeline health, revenue retention, and GenAI's impact
