Nifty IT Index Declines Amid Market Weakness; Metal Sector Gains
The Nifty IT index declined 3.24% to 28,913.95, continuing a six-day downward trend and underperforming broader markets, with a 9% drop over the past month and 18% over the year. Key IT stocks like Coforge, Infosys, and HCL Technologies saw notable losses, partly influenced by Coforge's chairman resignation unrelated to financials. Meanwhile, the Nifty Metal index gained 1.79%, emerging as the top-performing sector amid mixed global market sentiments and geopolitical tensions affecting crude prices.
