Here is a list of stocks that are buzzing in today's trade:

Wipro: Shares of the country's fourth largest information technology services company fell as much as 6.25% to hit an intraday low ₹232.15 after it lowered the revenue growth guidance from IT business for first quarter of the current financial year.

Infosys: Shares of the country's second largest information technology (IT) company, Infosys, declined as much as 1.96% to hit an intraday low of ₹1,385.20 ahead of its March quarter earnings announcement due later in the day. Analysts said that weakness in Infosys shares came on the back of larger selling pressure in IT space after Wipro, the country's fourth largest IT company, gave a weak forecast for its IT services segment growth for the upcoming June quarter.

Market participants will closely watch out for the management commentary in challenging environment for the IT companies. The IT sector has been going through a turmoil since the start of this year owing to uncertain global macro-economic environment. The measure of IT shares on the National Stock Exchange, NIFTY IT index, has so far this year dropped 23% massively underperforming the NIFTY50 index which is down 1.33% year-to-date.

Sonata Software: Shares of the Mumbai-registered IT company fell as much as 13.5% to hit an intraday low of ₹290 after the company on Wednesday night informed exchanges that it expects lower than anticipated revenue from its largest client in March quarter which will lead to lower revenue from its international business for the said quarter than previously envisioned.

Last week, global investment bank Goldman Sachs came out with a report in which it said that it sees early signs of improvement in asset quality and operating profitability, which added to the bullish sentiment for banking shares, analysts said.

"In the near term the data points could remain soft, given sluggish credit growth (see recent report), impact on NIMs due to lead/lag between loans vs. deposits and elevated credit costs, driving modest EPS cuts of 2% on average for our coverage for FY26E. We believe the sector could be closer to the bottom of the cycle, with cuts to consensus EPS forecasts for FY26-FY27E to end in 1HFY26," Goldman Sachs said in a report.

India Cements: Shares of the Chennai-based cement maker rose as much as 2.5% on the back of heavy trading volumes.

Earlier this month, Jio Finance Limited (JFL), the NBFC arm of Jio Financial Services Limited, said it has introduced a fully digital Loan Against Securities (LAS) for its customers with an interest rate starting at 9.99%.

The LAS offering from JFL is a secured lending product that allows customers to leverage their investments, such as shares and mutual funds, to avail loans at competitive interest rates, all within just ten minutes through a completely digital process, the company said in a statement.
