The trend continues to be positive and we continue with our positive bias and advise to keep a buy-on-decline approach for this sector.”

However, Ruchit Jain of 5paisa.com said that Nifty IT index may further remain under the selloff heat citing, “After a long time, the IT index witnessed some profit booking.
