Speaking at the launch, Taher Badshah, chief investment officer, Invesco Mutual Fund said "After a phase of subdued growth, the global IT services sector appears ready for recovery as the global economic environment stabilises and as conditions build for a potential reversal of the hitherto rising global interest rate cycle. Not only has the Indian IT services sector gained share during this period in helping global companies manage costs, but it is also well positioned to accelerate growth going forward as adoption of new technologies revive global discretionary technology spends."

Hiten Jain, fund manager, Invesco Mutual Fund said "Today's world is driven by technology, and businesses are embracing newer technologies, creating new growth opportunities for IT companies. The sector is gaining strength, supported by digitalization, government initiatives, and other factors. Moreover, valuations are reasonable, and we anticipate cyclical recovery in earnings driven by improving business sentiment."
