Market Summary
Indian equities saw modest gains, with NIFTY 50 and SENSEX closing positive, largely supported by robust DII buying that counteracted significant FII selling. Sectoral performance was bifurcated, as FMCG soared while IT and Pharma sectors faced declines. The nearly even market breadth suggests a selective stock-specific movement heading into the open.
Key Takeaways
- NIFTY 50 and SENSEX closed positive despite FII net selling of 9484.22cr.
- DIIs provided strong support with net buying of 10041.84cr.
- FMCG was the standout sector, gaining +1.61%, with ITC leading top gainers (+4.8%).
- IT and Pharma sectors lagged, showing declines of -0.29% and -0.84% respectively.
- HCLTECH (-3.6%) and HDFCBANK (-2.2%) were among the top losers.
- Market breadth was nearly even with 30 advances and 28 declines.
