Coforge, a mid-tier IT firm based in India, experienced a significant stock surge of 9.5%, closing at ₹1,280 and adding over $500 million in market capitalization. This increase follows the company's robust forecast for fiscal year 2027, which includes an expected EBITDA growth of more than 20.5% and a notable 230-basis-point rise in EBITDA margin to 16.6%. Analysts attribute this positive outlook to strong deal wins and improved operational efficiency, contrasting sharply with larger competitors like Infosys and HCLTech, which are facing growth challenges due to cautious AI-led spending and geopolitical tensions. The stock's trading activity was particularly robust, with around 27 million shares traded, nearly nine times its average volume, and a put-call ratio of 0.53, indicating bullish sentiment among investors. Brokerages such as Jefferies and Prabhudas Lilladher have raised their price targets for Coforge, reflecting strong confidence in its growth trajectory.
