The IT stocks are going through a rough patch, given the inverse co-relation between the rupee and IT sector.
The rupee has appreciated by 10 paise in early trade to touch a 15-month high of 45.74 a dollar, on the back of record FII inflows and firming Asian currencies. The Indian currency has appreciated nearly 2% so far this year.
And the IT index expectedly shed 2% by early afternoon, with heavyweights such as TCS, Wipro and Infosys correcting more than 2%.
Mid-cap IT stocks such as Mastek, Datamatics and Financial Technologies have also gone out of favour.
