Q2 GDP Data, Global Signals To Drive Domestic Indices This Week

Traders should exercise caution around expiry and key macro releases, using a buy-on-dips strategy only near established support levels, he added. Nifty gave a decisive close above the 26,000 resistance, demonstrating sustained strength and buyers' willingness to defend higher levels.

New Delhi: The second quarter (Q2) GDP data, foreign institutional investors' (FIIs) movement and global cues are projected to drive the Indian stock market sentiment this week. According to analysts, investors will have a close eye on trade developments and economic data like IIP and Q2 FY26 GDP data.

"With macro signals turning mixed and global cues offering limited clarity, a balanced approach is advisable. Investors may prioritise sectors with visible earnings traction and renewed interest—such as banking, auto, IT, and consumption—while remaining selective in other pockets," said Ajit Mishra of Religare Broking Ltd.

"The index continues to trade above its key moving averages -- the 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day EMAs-- further confirming a broader bullish undertone. As long as it remains above these levels, market sentiment is expected to stay constructive and upward-biased," according to Amruta Shinde of Choice Broking.

Domestic equity indices edged 0.68 and 0.50 per cent higher last week to close at 26,068 and 85,231, respectively. The upward momentum was supported by stronger second-quarter (Q2) earnings, easing inflation and optimism around the India-US trade negotiations.

Broader indices underperformed, with the Nifty Midcap100 and Smallcap100 ending the week down 0.76 per cent and 2.2 per cent, respectively. Though IT stocks faced selling pressure due to weakness in the US tech shares, it was the biggest weekly gainer. Nifty Auto and Services followed as the sectoral gainers during the week.

"The market may witness some profit booking in the near term if the pressure on the Indian rupee persists. In the week ahead, investors will also have a close vigil on trade developments and economic data like IIP and Q2 FY26 GDP data to get the market direction," said analysts.
