They are ICICI Pru Focused Bluechip Equity Retail, Franklin India Bluechip, Mirae Asset India Opportunities Regular, HDFC Equity, Reliance Equity Opportunities, IDFC Small The information technology (IT) sector should put in a positive performance in the June quarter, as the demand landscape remains unscathed and user spending continues to be broad-based, says Angel Research. Besides, cross-currency movements favour growth in US dollar revenues and a surge in overall revenues. However, there could be a possible decline in margins on account of increased manpower costs, as well as an overall slip in earnings of the order of 7% to 9% for the market leaders or even higher for smaller companies. The demand environment for most Tier-I IT companies is marked by positive client budgets across industries, with the exception of telecom, a higher component of offshore assignments for clients, an ability to satisfy surging demand with upbeat gross hiring guidance for 2011-12. (Infosys and Tata Consultancy Services say they are adding 45,000 and 60,000 employees respectively.) In spite of the favourable environment, there is a cause for concern in the looming macro economic scenario that may see a delay in client projects. The pent-up budget flush is not happening as planned, because clients are turning marginally cautious about the economic recovery. However, there are no indications of any budget cuts from clients yet and IT companies continue to see robust demand for discretionary services going ahead. As per NASSCOM's strategic review in February 2011, worldwide IT spend is expected to grow by about 4% in 2011-12.
