IT sector stares at delayed recovery, AI disruption

ACCENTURE’S weaker outlook and softer bookings have deepened concerns over a delayed recovery in India’s IT sector, with investors fearing AI disruption and subdued client spending could extend into FY27.

- PADMINI DHRUVARAJ

Shares of Indian IT companies fell on Friday after Accenture lowered the upper end of its annual revenue growth forecast and reported lower-than-expected new bookings for Q3. Its results are seen as an indicator of demand trends for Indian software exporters, which derive a large part of their business from global clients.

The Nifty IT index hit a three-year low and has been the worst performing index. Stocks such as Infosys, HCLTech, Wipro, Tech Mahindra and LTIMindtree ended 2-7% lower on the National Stock Exchange.
