About the Information Technology sector

29 Jul 2026

Solomo tracks 296 listed Information Technology companies on India's NSE and BSE, spread across 4 industries. Their combined market capitalisation was ₹27,72,344 crore (₹27.72 lakh crore) on 29 Jul 2026 5.7% of the ₹489.65 lakh crore across Solomo's 5,576-company Indian universe, making Information Technology the 6th largest of 23 sectors by market value. All 296 carry both an NSE symbol and a BSE scrip code.

The 5 largest by market capitalisation are Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (₹7,48,600 crore), Infosys Ltd (₹4,33,370 crore), HCL Technologies Ltd (₹3,15,504 crore), Wipro Ltd (₹1,73,659 crore) and Tech Mahindra Ltd (₹1,42,643 crore), together 65.4% of the sector's market value.

Median trailing P/E across the 280 Information Technology companies with a reported ratio is 19.4, and median return on capital employed (ROCE) across 296 companies is 11.2%. Medians rather than averages: the sector's long tail of micro-caps drags a mean far from anything typical.

6 of them rank among the 100 largest listed companies in India by market capitalisation on 29 Jul 2026 — ranked across Solomo's 5,576-company NSE and BSE universe: Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (#6), Infosys Ltd (#13), HCL Technologies Ltd (#24), Wipro Ltd (#50), Tech Mahindra Ltd (#71) and LTM Ltd (#90).
