IT Indices Rally; BSE IT Hits 52-Week High

On Tuesday, domestic equities were turbulent, owing to lackluster gains in Asian markets and stretched valuations in the United States. The benchmark S&P BSE Sensex fell 120 points to 55,450, while the Nifty50 index dropped 45 points to 16,500.

The Sensex has been on a one-way rising trajectory. In just three months, the Sensex rose from 48,254 in mid-May to 55,583. In just three months, Sensex has returned 15.2 percent.
