Tier-2 IT Firms Expected to Lead Q2 FY27 Growth Amid Geopolitical and AI Challenges
A Nuvama report forecasts that tier-2 IT companies like Persistent Systems, Mphasis, and Hexaware will lead growth in Q2 FY27 despite challenges from geopolitical tensions, a weak macroeconomic environment, and generative AI disruptions. The overall demand remained stable but weakened in September due to geopolitical uncertainties. While the IT index has declined 26% over nine months, Nuvama maintains a positive medium- to long-term outlook, expecting margin improvements and revised company guidance.
