The sectoral trend reflected the mixed spirit-PSU banks (-1.38%), FMCG (-130%), and oil and gas (-0.90%) saw significant decline, while metal (+2.6%), auto (+ 0.69%), and India’s consumption (+0.42%) shut down in the positive field, showing flexibility.
Among the Nifty 50 shares, Tata Steel (+4.35%), Bharti Airtel (+3.52%), and JSW Steel (+3.41%) led the beneficiaries, reflecting strong purchases in select metal and telecom shares. On the negative side, ONGC (-2.83%), ITC (-2.32%), and SBI (-2.0%) were the top legords, suggesting profit booking in heavyweight stocks.
Despite the initial instability, the market was found to have stability as traders digest the RBI policy move. When selling pressure in PSU banks and FMCG shares, buying selective indices in metal and auto stocks helped cushion wide indices.

This dip appears to be a temporary stagnation in the overall uptrend, and we believe that the pullback towards the 23,620–23,400 support area presents a purchase opportunity.
