It was after a long period of time that IT stock made a comeback on Friday as reflected in the top gainers list which was dominated by IT stocks. Now the question is whether it is another false start or the Q1 results from TCS and HCL tech are reflecting the fact that the street has been more pessimistic on the sector than it was required. The answer to this would be clear in another couple of days, but the way they have been performing, there is a higher probability of it being more sustainable this time. The fact is IT companies are one of most researched companies in India. But the focus of that research is largely on TOP 5 five companies. While the fact is that the Indian IT sector is far bigger than just these companies. There are many niche areas where mid and small cap IT companies have been able to make their mark and a distinction needs to be made when looking at the sector and probably because the are not over owned by large institutional investor.
