The Nvidia Halo Effect: Is the Indian IT Recovery Sustainable?

After the gut-wrenching volatility of the past 48 hours, the Indian markets have found a temporary anchor in the "Nvidia Halo Effect." Following stellar quarterly results from the global AI bellwether, the Nifty IT Index has emerged as today's primary recovery driver, with giants like TCS and Infosys recouping a significant portion of their "Claude Code" induced losses. As a veteran of multiple tech cycles, I see this as a classic case of global sentiment overpowering local fears. While the automation threat to legacy COBOL systems remains a long-term structural challenge, the immediate influx of ₹2,991 crore from FIIs suggests that the "smart money" is viewing the recent crash as a massive overreaction. Today’s bounce isn’t just about relief; it’s a validation that the Indian IT ecosystem is still perceived as the most efficient delivery vehicle for the global AI rollout.

However, the broader market narrative today is equally shaped by the Angel One stock split and the ongoing IRFC OFS bidding. The 1:10 split in Angel One—which visually plummeted its price by 90% while multiplying share counts—is a masterstroke in improving retail liquidity during a high-volatility window. Meanwhile, the IRFC OFS is testing the grit of PSU investors as the stock hovers near its floor price of ₹104. For the disciplined investor, the signal is clear: the market is transitioning from a "sell everything" panic to a "stock-picker's" paradise. With the Nifty holding firm above the 25,325 support level, the focus should shift from macro-paranoia to individual corporate actions. Whether it is the Reliance-Meta stake shuffle or Tata Motors' technical breakout, the winners of 2026 will be those who can distinguish between a temporary price adjustment and a fundamental business decay.
