Downgraded Happiest Minds Technologies (HMT) to 'Add' from 'Buy' and reduced the target price to ₹400 from ₹440. This revision is due to the lack of a takeover premium for minority shareholders and the uncertainty arising from the expected 15-month duration for the integration of HMT and ITC Infotech, which will likely keep the stock under pressure in the near term.
