IT stocks bleed as defence, consumer names rally; Nifty holds above 23,800

What's behind this

A global technology sell‑off triggered by the US midterm election results pulled Indian IT shares lower, with TCS and Infosys falling as investors questioned AI spending, outsourcing demand and the sector’s earnings outlook. The weakness in IT stocks dragged the Nifty down even as FMCG and healthcare indices held firm. Foreign institutional investors continued buying for a third straight session, but market participants weighed those inflows against technology‑sector weakness, broader global uncertainties and the possibility of profit‑booking after recent gains.
