+1.8% WoW — The Nifty 50 registered a modest recovery in the week ended February 28, 2026, clawing back from prior-week losses. Key drivers included: (1) upbeat Q3FY26 earnings from major BFSI constituents, (2) softer-than-expected CPI data easing rate-cut speculation, and (3) robust FII inflows of ₹7,800 Cr into equities. Auto and IT sectors led gains; Energy and FMCG lagged.
Watchpoints: RBI Monetary Policy Committee meeting (Mar 5–7) — market expects a 25 bps repo rate cut; US non-farm payrolls data (Mar 7) could sway global risk appetite; Q3 results from HDFC Bank, Infosys, and Reliance Industries. INR/USD movement and crude oil prices remain swing factors.
