Markets fall amid IT, FMCG earnings disappointment; Sensex down 543 points
Domestic equity benchmarks closed lower on Thursday, weighed down by selling in heavyweight stocks like Reliance Industries, HDFC Bank, and IT majors. Investor caution prevailed amid ongoing India-US trade negotiations and mixed corporate earnings. The Sensex settled at 82,184, down 543 points, or 0.6 per cent, while the Nifty closed at 25,062, dropping 158 points, 0.6 per cent. The selloff erased ₹2.2 trillion from the total market capitalisation, which is now at ₹458 trillion. Reliance Industries, HDFC Bank, and Infosys contributed most to the Sensex decline. IT stocks faced significant pressure after mid-tier firms, Coforge and Persistent Systems, reported weaker-than-expected quarterly results. The Nifty IT index plunged 2.2 per cent – its sharpest single-day fall since May 13 – despite Infosys beating earnings estimates. "IT firms show anaemic revenue growth and profit degrowth, making current valuations unsustainable. Minimal recruitment signals limited near-term upside. Without a dramatic turnaround, these valuations won't hold," said UR Bhat, Co-founder of Alphaniti Fintech. The market's cautious tone persisted even as India and the UK signed a free trade agreement, granting 99 per cent of Indian exports (textiles to engineering goods) tariff concessions. However, analysts noted limited immediate market reaction due to focus on earnings. "Initial optimism about the UK FTA briefly lifted pharma and textile stocks, but attention quickly shifted back to earnings," Bhat added. Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services, said, "Subdued Q1 performances dragged IT and FMCG stocks. While earnings are broadly in line, they don't justify India's premium 21 times price-to-earnings multiple. Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) were net sellers of ₹2,134 crore, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) provided support with net buying of ₹2,617 crore. Market breadth remained weak, with 2,517 declining stocks versus 1,542 gainers on the BSE. Looking ahead, Siddhartha Khemka, Head of Research at Motilal Oswal Wealth Management, said: "We expect range-bound markets with stock-specific moves driven by Q1 earnings. Global cues, including UK FTA formalisation and India-US trade talks, will be closely monitored." The Indian markets have underperformed emerging market peers, with the Nifty declining 1.8 per cent even as the MSCI EM ex-Japan gained 4 per cent.

Asian rally drives rebound on D-Street
Mumbai: Benchmark Sensex jumped nearly 540 points while Nifty closed above the 25,200 level on Wednesday on heavy buying in banking giants and oil shares and a positive trend in Asian markets after Japan secured a trade deal with the US. The 30-share BSE Sensex jumped 539.83 points or 0.66 per cent to settle at 82,726.64. During the day, it surged 599.62 points or 0.72 per cent to 82,786.43. The 50-share NSE Nifty gained 159 points or 0.63 per cent to settle at 25,219.90 as 37 of its constituents advanced and 13 declined. Among Sensex firms, Tata Motors rose the most by 2.51 per cent. Bharti Airtel, Bajaj Finance, Maruti, Bajaj Finserv, ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank and Reliance Industries were also the major gainers. Private banking giants HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank hit their 52-week high levels intra-day before settling nearly 1 per cent higher. Value buying in Reliance Industries, following five days of losses, also supported the rally. RIL shares closed higher by 0.83 per cent. However, Hindustan Unilever, UltraTech Cement, Bharat Electronics and ITC were among the laggards. 'The Indian equity market demonstrated resilience despite a mixed start to Q1 FY26 earnings. Positive global cues, underpinned by optimism surrounding the US-Japan trade agreement, have supported sentiment. Additionally, progress toward finalising the India-UK FTA has further contributed to the constructive outlook. 'Continued advancements in global trade negotiations are expected to alleviate near-term trade tensions and foster greater market stability. While elevated valuations remain a concern, the prevailing market strength indicates potential for near-term earnings recovery. However, the pace and sustainability of this recovery will be critical in shaping the market's forward trajectory,' Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said. The BSE midcap gauge climbed 0.24 per cent and smallcap index went up by 0.05 per cent. Among BSE sectoral indices, telecommunication jumped 1.14 per cent, followed by auto (0.86 per cent), bankex (0.75 per cent), teck (0.74 per cent), financial services (0.70 per cent), healthcare (0.70 per cent) and energy (0.65 per cent). Realty dropped 2.60 per cent, FMCG (0.46 per cent), capital goods (0.31 per cent) and services (0.20 per cent). 'On the global stage, investor sentiment soared following optimistic developments surrounding the US-Japan trade pact, igniting expectations for further international agreements in the near future,' according to Ashika Institutional Equities. Markets in Europe were trading in the green. The US markets ended mostly higher on Tuesday. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth Rs 3,548.92 crore on Tuesday, according to exchange data. Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) bought stocks worth Rs 5,239.77 crore in the previous trade.

Mukesh Ambani may make big move as EU, US pressure rises on Russian oil, Reliance boss may....
This businessman has earned maximum money in world this year so far, his name is..., Mukesh Ambani also in Top 10 Mukesh Ambani News: In a major development, Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries may be shifting away from its dependence on Russian oil due to the escalating risk of secondary sanctions from the US and NATO. As per a Bloomberg report, Reliance Industries bought Murban crude from Abu Dhabi late last week. It is important to note that Murban isn't a regular buyer of the UAE grade. It is a premium crude that tends to be costlier than its regular appetite of Russian Urals and heavier Middle Eastern varieties. The report further adds that Reliance had begun looking for ways to diversify its crude purchases away from Russia. The revelation comes as the European Union introduced fresh punitive measures this month against Russia's energy sector, including restrictions affecting the Vadinar refinery in Gujarat. To recall, the Indian refiners had increased their purchase after Europe and the US shunned Russian crudes in 2022. This led to a deep cargo discount. These were refined to produce fuels such as diesel before being resold to Western customers. The European Union has recently announced a ban on the import of diesel and other petroleum products derived from Russian crude oil. It has also placed direct sanctions on Nayara Energy — a refinery backed by Russian oil major Rosneft. Here are some of the key details: Reliance has emerged as one of the biggest 'beneficiaries' of the Ukraine-Russia conflict. Moscow has supplied almost half of Reliance's crude imports so far this year, as per the Ship-tracking data compiled by Kpler. Around one-fifth of the processor's total product exports were subsequently sold to Europe. Refining Russian crude into diesel for export to Europe has brought Reliance under scrutiny as part of the EU's latest efforts to pressure Moscow, with the ban scheduled to take effect on January 21 next year. Despite initial signs of a pivot towards the Middle East, it remains unclear how the mega refiner will source close to 600,000 barrels a day of crude from other producers, and at what cost. Is India dependent on Russian oil imports? During the first half of 2025, Indian oil imports from Russia rose marginally. According to the reports, nearly 35 percent of overall supplies came from Russia. Private refiners such as Reliance Industries Ltd and Nayara Energy made up approximately half of the purchases from Moscow. New Delhi has repeatedly stressed the need to avoid 'double standards' as top US and NATO officials threaten to impose 100% secondary sanctions on nations still importing Russian oil.
