India Cements Indian IT sector to witness soft growth in Q1 despite seasonal strength, says Report
According to a report carried by Equirus Securities, the Indian IT services sector is expected to experience a soft quarter growth (Q1FY26) despite the seasonal strength, according to a report released on Tuesday.
The report also says that IT companies' earnings are expected to be mixed across the board with a very soft quarter for ER&D services companies on a quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) basis.
As per the report, TCS's US$ revenue is expected to dip QoQ by 0.4 per cent in CC terms. Tepid growth is largely due to the expected ramp-down in the BSNL deal and some softness in sales growth in international markets. What is expected from Ajim Premiji's Wipro?
Also, Ajim Premiji's Wipro US$ sales to dip by 2.6 per cent QoQ in CC terms, while HCL Tech US$ revenue growth is expected to be 1.4 per cent QoQ. What is expected from Tech Mahindra?
Tech Mahindra's US$ sales to dip 0.8 per cent QoQ sales in CC terms considering seasonal softness in Comviva and continuing softness in demand from some of the hi-tech clients, according to the report.

FIIs pull out over $1 billion from Dalal Street in 5 days of non-stop selling
FIIs have pulled out over Rs 10,000 crore from Indian equities in five days, reversing their three-month buying streak. DIIs remain net buyers. July shows renewed bearishness, with Citi downgrading India to 'neutral' due to high valuations and weaker earnings forecasts. Global concerns continue to pressure Indian markets. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads In contrast, DIIs stay bullish Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Citi downgrades India to 'Neutral' Foreign Institutional Investors ( FIIs ) have resumed their aggressive selling spree in Indian equity markets, registering net outflows for five consecutive trading sessions. Over this brief yet impactful period, FIIs have withdrawn a staggering Rs 10,169 crore, surpassing the USD 1 billion mark in cumulative selling. This data includes the heavy outflow recorded on July most significant pullback came on July 17, when FIIs sold Rs 3,671 crore, marking the second-largest single-day outflow in the past five sessions. The biggest single-day exit was a whopping Rs 4,495 crore, underlining the intensity and pace of FII while FIIs were offloading equities, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) stepped in as consistent buyers. Over the same five-day period, DIIs pumped in close to Rs 11,000 crore, providing some support to the market and helping absorb the selling focus back to FIIs — on a monthly basis, July has reversed the trend. FIIs, who were net buyers for three straight months — from April to June 2025 — have now turned net sellers. Their most aggressive buying was seen in June 2025, when they invested around Rs 14,600 crore into Indian equities . This makes July's sharp exit even more broader trend for calendar year 2025 also paints a bearish picture. So far, FIIs have pulled out nearly Rs 90,000 crore from Indian equities, pointing to persistent caution and growing discomfort with current market V.K. Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services said, "In July so far, India has been underperforming most markets, with a dip of 1.6% in the Nifty. A significant contributor to the decline is the selling by FIIs. There is a clear pattern in FII activity this year: they were sellers in the first three months, turned buyers for the next three, and in the seventh month, the trends so far indicate further selling — unless some positive news reverses the downtrend in the market. Along with selling in the cash market, FIIs have been increasing short positions in the derivatives market too, which reflects a bearish outlook. Elevated valuations in India and cheaper valuations in other markets will continue to influence FII activity."Global brokerage firm Citi has downgraded India to 'neutral' from 'overweight', citing elevated valuations and a moderation in earnings growth forecasts. The brokerage maintained its 'overweight' stance on China, Korea, and the Philippines, reflecting better earnings revision trends and more attractive valuations, ET reports."India remains the most expensive market (23 times) compared to both its peers and its own average valuation," said Citi. The brokerage added that while India's macro story looks better than its peers and a US trade deal is possible, the market's earnings growth outlook "no longer looks exceptional" against the backdrop of high valuations.(Disclaimer: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.
