IT stocks are mixed mainly because 5 of the 10 report cuts in telecom, high-tech, healthcare, medicine makers or European factories. Pay rises in July–September 2026 could pull Tech Mahindra's margin below 14.0%. 44 of 103 beat the Nifty 500 at the 9 October 2026 scan, against 63 at the high in June.

How this top 10 is ranked
Each stock gets a score out of 100. Growth in sales and profit, plus improving margins and returns, counts 35%. Business quality (return on capital, financial strength, steady profits) counts 25%. Valuation against growth and against the company's own history counts 20%. Price strength against its industry and the Nifty 500 counts 20%. Each part is scored against companies in the same industry. Only stocks worth ₹2,000 crore or more are ranked (56 IT stocks). "Broke out" shows a price breakout in the last 8 weeks. When two scores tie, the one with more price strength ranks higher. This ranks past data and is not a recommendation.
