Benchmark equity indices rebounded from their worst single-day fall in more than four years amid heavy buying by investors after NDA alliance partners started talks on government formation.
The BSE Sensex jumped 2,303.19 points or 3.20 per cent to settle at 74,382.24. The NSE Nifty climbed 735.85 points or 3.36 per cent to 22,620.35. All sectors ended in green with FMCG, Auto, Private banks, and Metals up 4-5 per cent. Expectation of a healthy monsoon is driving buying interest in FMCG and Auto stocks.
“Going ahead the narrative around government formation and RBI monetary policy would take centre stage in the near term. Despite the reduced seats, we expect the government focus to continue on Investment-led growth, Capex, Infrastructure creation, Manufacturing, etc in the long term. In the very near term, we expect the market to remain obsessed with government formation exercise, with a keen eye on key cabinet portfolios such as Finance, Defense, Roads, Energy, Commerce, and Railways. With election overhang done, we expect the focus to revert to fundamental,” said Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.
