Here is your hand:
♠Q53
♥AKJ6
♦J872
♣T8
Playing matchpoints and you are vulnerable. The Opponents are silent during the auction.
Partner is Dealer and opens the bidding 1♣. You respond 1
♥. Partner now bids 1♠. What is your call?

How about 2NT?
This shows about 11 or 12 HCP with a little something in the unbid suit.
If you raised Partner's ♠ suit remember that Partner probably does not have five ♠. They would have opened the bidding 1♠ if they did. So you probably do not have a ♠ fit.
If you bid 1NT you showed only about 6 to 10 HCP. You have a bit more than that.
