Stock markets today continue to witness retracement in Nifty IT index for second successive session. However, stock analysts are still bullish on IT stock as they see this dip in IT stocks as mere profit-booking by investors. They said that current dip in IT stocks may further go down but this dip in IT stocks should be seen as buying opportunity and suggested positional investors to buy quality and new age IT stocks like Infosys, HCL Tech, Firstsource Solutions or FSL, Birlasoft and Allsec Technologies.

Expecting further dip in Nifty IT index; Ruchit Jain, Lead Research at 5paisa.com said, “After a long time, the IT index witnessed some profit booking.
