Infosys and Wipro both touched fresh 52-week lows during the day, trading at Rs 987.80 and Rs 159.19 respectively, while Oracle Financial Services, HCL Technologies, MphasiS, Persistent Systems, TCS, LTM and Tech Mahindra also traded lower. The extended decline lines up with a broader risk-off mood in Indian equities tied to rising crude oil prices and US bond yields. Both Infosys and Wipro carry an RSI near 24 to 25, deep in oversold territory, even as their dividend yields have risen to multi-year highs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Nifty IT index extended its losing streak to an eighth straight session on Tuesday, falling about 1 percent as intraday weakness spread across the sector&#8217;s largest names. Oracle Financial Services led the declines, down 1.67 percent, followed by HCL Technologies, Infosys, Wipro, MphasiS, Persistent Systems, TCS, LTM and Tech Mahindra, all trading lower during the session.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in?utm_source=blogs&#038;utm_medium=nifty-it-index-falls-eighth-day\"><strong>Click Here &#8211; Get Free Investment Predictions<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Infosys and Wipro were the standout stories, both slipping to fresh 52-week lows even as the broader Nifty 50 was down a more modest amount.

Higher US yields typically weigh on IT services stocks specifically because a large share of sector revenue and valuation is tied to US client budgets and dollar-denominated earnings, both sensitive to US rate expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign portfolio investors have also net sold about Rs 20,695 crore of Indian stocks in September, reversing two months of buying, and IT is one of the sectors most exposed to foreign ownership, which can deepen sector-specific selling once outflows begin.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Valuation_Cushion_and_Risks_for_the_Nifty_IT_Index\"><\/span><strong>Valuation Cushion and Risks for the Nifty IT Index<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Within the Nifty IT index, Infosys and Wipro both trade at meaningful discounts to the industry P\/E of 17.57, at 13.42 and 12.06 respectively, and their dividend yields have risen as prices have fallen, which can attract value and income-focused buyers even in a weak tape. That valuation cushion does not guarantee a floor, since oversold conditions can persist through a genuine change in sector fundamentals.<\/p>\n<p>Risks for the Nifty IT index include continued strength in crude oil and US bond yields, which would keep the macro backdrop unfavourable for IT valuations, further FPI outflows, and any signs that US client budgets for technology spending are slowing rather than merely facing near-term rate-driven headwinds. Company-specific results over the coming quarters will be the clearer test of whether the current oversold readings reflect a temporary macro squeeze or a deeper demand issue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><em>Download the <a href=\"http:\/\/apps.apple.com\/in\/app\/univest-stocks-investment\/id6443753518\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest iOS App<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.univest.capp&#038;hl=en_IN\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest Android App<\/a> to track the Nifty IT index and get alerts on IT stock 52-week lows.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Nifty IT index fell for an eighth straight session, with Infosys and Wipro both touching fresh 52-week lows as rising crude oil prices and US bond yields weigh on the sector.
