Coforge Ltd., Mphasis Ltd., Wipro Ltd. L&T Technology Services Ltd., and Infosys Ltd. advanced less than a percent, whereas HCL Technologies Ltd. was up 1.85% ahead of Q4 results.

Shares of Infosys were volatile on Tuesday, swinging between gains and losses after falling the most in 3.5 years on Monday. It rose 0.18% to Rs 1,260.55 apiece as of 11:27 a.m., compared to a 0.15% decline in the benchmark NSE Nifty 50. The stock gained as much as 0.93% intraday, the most since April 12.

The total traded volume so far in the day stood at 1.8 times its 30-day average. The relative strength index was at 25.8, implying that the stock may be oversold.
