HCL Technologies jumped 4.03% to Rs 750.10 after the company said it expects the revenue and the operating margin for the September 2020 quarter to be meaningfully better than the top end of the guidance provided in July 2020.
In a BSE filing made before market hours today, the IT major said that it saw strong execution during the quarter to date, and continue to execute to the plan this month.

"Good Booking momentum continues this quarter, led by Life Sciences & Healthcare, Telecom & Media and Financial Services verticals. The pipeline continues to look healthy across service lines, verticals and geographies," HCL Tech said.
