Indian shares set to open at record highs; IT stocks in focus
BENGALURU, Sept 27 (Reuters) -Indian shares are set to open at fresh highs on Friday, riding the coattails of the outsized U.S. rate cut last week, with IT stocks on the radar after U.S. peer Accenture's better-than-expected quarterly profit.
The GIFT Nifty .GIFc1 was at 26,342.50 points as of 8.07 a.m. IST, suggesting that the NSE Nifty 50 .NSEI will open above its close of 26,216.05 on Thursday.
The Nifty and the BSE Sensex .BSESN have gained 3.3% and 3.5%, respectively, hitting all-time highs in six straight sessions since the U.S. Federal Reserve's oversized rate cut last Wednesday, which boosted hopes of higher foreign inflows in emerging markets, including India.
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) have net bought shares worth 150.98 billion rupees ($1.81 billion) in the past six days, per exchange data, higher than 134.52 billion rupees in the six sessions before the rate cut.
IT companies .NIFTYIT, which have the second-heaviest weightage among the major sectors and get a major portion of their revenue from U.S. clients, will be in focus after U.S. peer Accenture ACN.N posted better-than-expected quarterly earnings due to strong demand for its AI services.
