Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

IT stocks rallied on 15 October 2026, lifting the Nifty IT index about 2.5% and extending its three-session gain to roughly 9%, after a 5.2% jump on Tuesday that was its best day in over 17 months. Analysts point to three drivers: a rotation away from the AI hardware trade, Q2 results from TCS and HCLTech that were in line with no negative surprise, and valuations of 12 to 18 times earnings with dividend yields of 3% to 5%. The headline also cites a weaker rupee, but the rupee actually gained on the day, so I treat that as unverified. One analyst calls it an earnings-led relief rally and not a confirmed turnaround.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The rally in IT stocks is the main story on Dalal Street on Thursday. After a long period of underperformance, IT stocks such as TCS, Infosys, HCLTech, Wipro and Tech Mahindra have all jumped, and the Nifty IT index has risen about 9% in three sessions.<\/p>\n

This guide covers the size of the move, the three drivers, the TCS and HCLTech results, how stocks have performed over a week, the risks and the levels to watch. Sources differ on some figures for IT stocks, and I flag those.<\/p>\n

A rally of this size in IT stocks raises the question of whether it can last, and the sections below treat that as an open question.<\/p>\n
