The Nifty IT index plunged more than 2 percent in intraday trade on Tuesday, with heavyweight constituents Infosys, LTIMindtree and TCS among the top laggards as the sector came under broad based selling pressure. The index touched a day low of 26,425.85, down sharply from the previous close of 27,038.50, before paring some losses to trade around 26,559.40, still down close to 1.8 percent on the day.

Stocks Behind the Nifty IT Plunge Today

Infosys fell about 2.2 percent to trade around Rs 1,014, with the stock’s intraday low of Rs 1,005.50 slipping below its prior 52 week low, underscoring how sharp the selling pressure has been in the counter. LTIMindtree was the weakest among the large IT names, down around 2.6 percent to trade near Rs 3,591, while TCS declined about 2.1 percent to around Rs 2,054.

The broad based nature of the Nifty IT decline, with all three of the sector’s largest constituents falling in a similar 2 to 2.6 percent range, suggests the selling reflects sector wide concerns rather than any single company specific trigger.

The table below summarises today’s move across key Nifty IT constituents.

Stock CMP Day Change
Infosys Rs 1,014 -2.2%
LTIMindtree Rs 3,591 -2.6%
TCS Rs 2,054 -2.1%
Nifty IT Index 26,559 -1.8% (day low -2.3%)

Why Is Nifty IT Falling Sharply Today

The Nifty IT sell off comes amid persistent concerns that elevated US interest rates could weigh on global technology spending budgets, a worry that has periodically resurfaced through the year and weighed on Indian IT exporters given their heavy dependence on US client spending. Weak commentary from global IT bellwethers in recent weeks has also kept sentiment fragile heading into the June quarter earnings season. Use the Univest Screener to compare valuation multiples across IT majors before the sector’s results begin.

With Infosys, LTIMindtree and TCS all reporting Q1 FY27 results over the coming weeks, investor focus is likely to shift toward management commentary on deal pipelines, discretionary spending trends and currency movements, all of which could determine whether the current Nifty IT weakness extends or reverses.

What Should Investors Watch on Nifty IT Now

Investors tracking Nifty IT should watch the upcoming June quarter results closely, particularly commentary around BFSI and retail vertical spending in the US, since these remain the largest revenue contributors for India’s top IT exporters. A weekly close back above the 27,000 level would help stabilise sentiment, while a sustained move below 26,400 could open the door to further weakness toward the next support zone.

Conclusion

The sharp fall in Nifty IT, led by Infosys, LTIMindtree and TCS, has been the key driver behind today’s broader market weakness, reflecting renewed concerns around global technology spending even as the sector heads into a closely watched earnings season.
