Hexaware shares drop as much as 8% after CY26 revenue growth forecast cut to 6–7%
Hexaware cut CY26 revenue growth guidance to 6–7% (from ≥7.6%) citing delayed deal ramp-ups and weaker macro conditions, despite modest EBIT margin improvement and healthy order wins. The guidance downgrade and sequential profit decline drove an ~8% share drop, reinforcing investor concerns about Indian IT demand sensitivity to global growth and execution risk. Near-term sentiment for the sector and related India equities may soften.
