  • Infosys, TCS, Tech Mahindra Shares Rally Up to 6% on IT Sector Recovery
    May 19, 2026, 6:06 AM EDT. Indian major IT stocks rebounded sharply with Nifty IT index rising nearly 4% led by Coforge, Mphasis, Persistent Systems, Tech Mahindra, Infosys, and TCS. Shares like Coforge jumped 6%, while others gained 4-5%. The rally follows a prior selloff sparked by fears of artificial intelligence disrupting traditional IT outsourcing and slowing global demand. Market sentiment improved due to softer US Treasury yields, prospects of a less aggressive US interest-rate regime, and a weaker rupee supporting export revenues. Short covering and bargain hunting also fueled the rebound as investors sought quality tech firms with strong digital, cloud, and AI capabilities. Despite volatility risks, analysts see the correction as a potential buying opportunity given compressed valuations.
