IT stocks could hit new all-time highs in 6–12 months, says Sandip Agarwal – CNBC TV18

Indian IT stocks could climb to new all-time highs over the next six to 12 months as the impact of AI-led deflation eases and earnings growth improves, according to Sandip Agarwal, Fund Manager at Sowilo Investment Managers, which manages assets worth over $25 million.

“We are extremely bullish on the sector since April. Obviously, we cannot time the bottom, but I feel that deflation impact in this quarter was the worst, and after this, it will recede in a significant way. We will see substantial relief in the whole sector, and not only one particular company or two particular companies,” Agarwal said.

The IT index has rallied around 10% since Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) announced its results. Agarwal believes the gains could extend as companies see better revenue growth and improved margins, supported by the gradual adoption of AI by enterprise clients.

Agarwal expects Indian IT companies to deliver strong earnings growth over the next three years, even if their valuation multiples remain unchanged.

“I believe that this sector will give 45 to 70% cumulative EPS CAGR over next three years, and even if multiple remains, that is the minimum return you should expect in the sector,” he said.
