It is the midcap and small IT companies drawing FII interest, as of the March quarter

For the Indian IT sector, the momentum and bullishness appears to have shifted - away from the large IT majors and towards the midcap and smaller players. With the exception of TCS and Wipro, IT FII/FPI investments as of the previous quarter increased in the smaller companies - Hexaware Technologies, Sasken Communications, Ramco Systems and others.

These firms, focused on a few select verticals, have gained FII interest over the behemoths. According to HDFCSec analysts, midcap IT valuations (12x FY19E) are at a 10% discount to large cap valuations (13.5x FY19E).See the full screener of shareholding increases among FIIs here.

Consumer inflation falls to record lows

Consumer inflation fell to a record low of 1.54% in June, below the estimate from economists polled by Reuters, who had predicted that inflation would fall to 1.7%. This is a sharp drop from May's 2.18% inflation number. 

The drop has been aided by a fall in food prices, and is significantly lower than RBI's medium term target of 4%. Consumer inflation rates have stayed below RBI targets now for eight months in a row, opening an opportunity for an interest rate cut from the bank. The RBI had against expectations kept the interest rate unchanged in June, but MPC discussions indicated that it could review the stance if the trend continued. The RBI's MPC is set to meet in August.
