We have a constructive stance on the IT sector,&#8221; Prasad said.<\/p>\n<p>V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, said IT stocks, after the recent sharp correction, are now fairly valued.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;However, there are concerns arising out of the fallout from a possible recession in the US and sharp slowdown in other key markets,&#8221; he said, adding that the TCS first quarter results indicate good revenue situation but there is pressure on margins due to salary hikes for employees.<\/p>\n<p>While noting that IT stocks are likely to remain under pressure, Aditi Patil said, &#8220;I believe for the coming results (of other IT companies), there won&#8217;t be positive surprises&#8230; Stock prices will remain under pressure. IT stocks may fall further from this level.&#8221; TCS Managing Director and CEO Rajesh Gopinathan, on Friday while announcing the quarterly results, hinted that this was the bottom for the margins, attributing the fall to annual wage hikes and promotions.<\/p>\n<p>At a time when worries are being expressed about recessionary pressures in countries like the US, which is the biggest market for TCS, Gopinathan had said it has been doing client surveys to look for any early signs of softening in demand for its services.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are seeing steady demand from our immediate conversations with customers for the short term to medium term. So, all projects that are currently going on, pipeline conversions&#8230; all of that indicates a steady demand environment,&#8221; he had said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In senior-level discussions, there is increasing discussion about the recession, no different from what you and I are reading in newspapers. We don&#8217;t see an immediate footprint of it on our demand side. From a pipeline perspective also, the pipeline build is quite strong and the nature of deals is also remaining strong,&#8221; he had said.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Crisil report, the current depreciation in the rupee, and strong demand for new age technologies like artificial intelligence, cloud computing and Internet of Things will help the over USD 220-billion sector maintain double-digit growth.<\/p>\n<div class=\"trade-after-content\" id=\"trade-1824791354\"><div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails\"><\/div>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n  window._taboola = window._taboola || [];\r\n  _taboola.push({\r\n    mode: 'alternating-thumbnails-a',\r\n    container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnails',\r\n    placement: 'Below Article Thumbnails',\r\n    target_type: 'mix'\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n  window._taboola = window._taboola || [];\r\n  _taboola.push({flush: true});\r\n<\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Information technology stocks are likely to remain under pressure in the near-term amid headwinds emanating from the worsening economic situation in key global markets and financial market volatility, according to analysts.
