1. Trump’s 90-Day Tariff Pause on India

US President Donald Trump’s decision to suspend the 26% tariff on Indian imports for 90 days has lifted global investor sentiment. The move reduces trade uncertainty for Indian exporters and boosts foreign investor confidence.

2. RBI’s Accommodative Stance

The Reserve Bank of India recently cut the repo rate by 25 bps to 6% and changed its stance to ‘accommodative’. This has raised hopes of lower borrowing costs and improved liquidity in the system — a big positive for equities.

3. Strong Broad Market Participation

The rally is not limited to heavyweight stocks. Participation from mid-cap and small-cap segments shows broad-based investor confidence, indicating that the rally has depth and isn’t just index-led.

4. Technical Breakout and Gap-Up Start

The Gift Nifty indicated a strong start for Indian equities, trading nearly 460 points above Nifty’s previous close. This helped trigger a gap-up opening, encouraging momentum traders and short-covering rallies.

5. Global Cues and Safe-Haven Flow to Emerging Markets

While global markets were shaky after Wall Street’s fall, India stood out as a relatively stable and promising market. With gold and oil stabilizing and the dollar under pressure, emerging markets like India are seeing renewed FII interest.
