Trideep Bhattacharya of Edelweiss Asset Management believes the valuation de-rating of tech stocks is broadly done while earnings estimates are in the process of calibration in sync with the demand scenario in the calendar year 2024.

Hence, Edelweiss AMC has reduced its under-weight position in Indian IT services stocks over last year and turned positive on select stocks, says Bhattacharya in an interview with Moneycontrol.
