"We believe that IT stocks can be a good buy for both small and medium-term gains led by good corporate earnings and expectations of slowing pace of interest rate hike by FED. Investors can also accumulate auto shares as good demand and RM prices cooling off may lead to a rise in these stocks," said Mohit Nigam, Fund ManagerHead - PMS, Hem Securities.

Nigam said some stock-specific actions can be witnessed in stocks such as FSN E-Commerce as CFO Arvind Agarwal reportedly resigned to pursue other opportunities, Vedanta as its board approved the third interim dividend for FY23 of Rs 17.5 per share, and DCW as the company will invest Rs 125 crore towards capacity expansion.
