What should investors do as subdued Q1 results, tariff tensions extend stock market losses? Explains Geojit's Vinod Nair
The Indian equity market initiated the month of July on a selling note, driven by persistent global trade tensions and a subdued start to the Q1FY26 earnings season. Investor sentiment was further weighed down by delays in the India–US trade pact and the US extension of tariff deadlines. News like the imposition of a 35% levy on Canadian, 50% on copper, 25% on Japan, and sending a tariff threat letter to 20 countries intensified the concerns. Despite the broader indices slipping into negative territory, selective buying emerged in consumption-oriented sectors such as FMCG and discretionary stocks. This was supported by signs of urban & rural demand revival, easing inflation, declining interest rates, and a favourable monsoon—all of which contributed to margin improvement and a positive undertone on volume growth. Key underperformers were in the IT sector, weighed down by weak results from key bellwethers and expectations of deferred orders and investments. This raised concerns over FY26 earnings estimates and added to valuation pressures. Investors are now closely watching corporate guidance on margins and sector dynamics as the earnings season unfolds. However, after the initial setback, the prices of IT stocks are stabilising with a reduction in volatility due to deep value trading near 5years -1SD (standard deviation) forward P/E valuation and hope of a rebound in business in CY26 as the Nasdaq100 index has breached to an all-time high. Banking stocks have a muted trend, which is expected to continue in the short term, facing headwinds from NIM contraction and sluggish growth in advances, which could impact its profit performance in the short-term. Also, the valuation appears somewhat stretched at current levels, suggesting that the upside may be limited in the near future. However, with regulatory support such as liquidity infusions and other revival measures, the banking sector is expected to recover over the medium to long term. We continue to maintain a positive outlook on the industry, and back stocks with a moderate credit-to-deposit ratio and improvement in asset quality, which provide a cushion against short-term volatility. Markets attempted a partial rebound this week, driven by optimism over a potential interim trade deal with the U.S. and multi-year low domestic inflation, which boosted hopes of RBI rate cuts and economic acceleration. However, the continuation of subdued quarterly results, the clamp in the global market, and the premium valuations of India led to further losses in the market. Investors are adopting a selective approach, focusing on earnings visibility and sector resilience. Mid & Small cap were able to perform marginally better. The key intake of the month is that India's macroeconomic outlook remains strong, supported by easing inflation, lower interest rates, a healthy monsoon, and softer oil prices. A drop in inflation in eight straight months has provided an optimism to the market. However, investors are showing a mix of optimism and caution to assess the Q1FY26 corporate earnings, as an upgrade in earnings is the most essential fact in the premium-valued stock market.

UPI surge: India leads the world in fast payments; 18 billion monthly transactions power growth
AI image India has become the world's top player in real-time digital payments, largely due to the rapid growth of the Unified Payments Interface (UPI), according to a recent International Monetary Fund (IMF) note titled 'Growing Retail Digital Payments: The Value of Interoperability'. Launched in 2016 by the National Payments Corporation of India, UPI has revolutionised the country's payment ecosystem by enabling users to link multiple bank accounts to a single mobile app and make instant transactions with ease. It has not only simplified peer-to-peer payments but also enabled millions of small businesses to accept digital payments at minimal cost. According to data from the Press Information Bureau (PIB), UPI now processes over 18 billion transactions every month, accounting for 85 per cent of India's total digital payments. In June alone, the platform recorded 18.39 billion transactions worth Rs 24.03 lakh crore — a 32 per cent increase from June last year. With 491 million users and 65 million merchants onboard, UPI connects 675 banks through a single digital framework. 'This shift has taken India away from cash and card-based payments and pushed it towards a digital-first economy,' noted the PIB in its latest background series. 'Millions of individuals and small businesses now rely on UPI for safe and low-cost transactions. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Get Your Handmade Phone Case Now [Limited Offer] Buy Now Undo By making payments quick and accessible, UPI has become a powerful tool for financial inclusion.' The platform's global footprint is expanding as well. UPI is now operational in seven countries, including the UAE, Singapore, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, France, and Mauritius. Its debut in France marks UPI's first foray into Europe, allowing Indians there to pay seamlessly without the usual hassles of foreign transactions. India is also pushing for UPI to be adopted within the BRICS grouping, which now includes six new member nations. As per the PIB, such an expansion 'will improve remittances, boost financial inclusion and raise India's profile as a global tech leader in digital payments.' The journey to this digital success was built on a strong foundation of financial inclusion. The Jan Dhan Yojana was a key enabler, bringing over 55.83 crore people into the formal banking system as of July 9. These accounts not only offer a secure way to receive welfare benefits but also encourage saving and digital financial habits. 'These figures show more than just numbers. They reflect trust, convenience and speed. Every month, more individuals and businesses choose UPI for their payments. This growing use is a strong sign that India is moving steadily towards a cashless economy,' the PIB added. Stay informed with the latest business news, updates on bank holidays and public holidays .
