Exports to the US are relatively low, reducing India’s vulnerability to trade wars.
Declining global commodity prices (like oil) could reduce inflation and benefit Indian firms’ margins.

While IT results are mixed, expectations of a revival in FY26 keep the sector active.
No major earnings shocks have helped sustain investor confidence.

🏦 Banking stocks are drawing interest thanks to clean balance sheets and robust demand for credit.

4. Above-Normal Monsoon Forecast

A favorable IMD monsoon outlook has further fueled optimism:

Rainfall is expected to be 105% of the long-period average, crucial for agriculture and rural spending.
A good monsoon can ease food inflation and pave the way for RBI rate cuts.
With 42% of India’s population dependent on agriculture, the monsoon plays a pivotal role in demand revival.

5. Strong Foreign Capital Inflows

Foreign investors are back:

FPIs have infused ₹18,000 crore into Indian equities over five sessions.
A weakening dollar index, easing US bond yields, and a stable Indian macro outlook are luring global capital.

📈 FPIs are once again betting on India as a “growth safe haven” amid global volatility.

Conclusion:

India’s market rally is not built on hype—it’s underpinned by economic stability, monsoon optimism, steady earnings, and renewed foreign interest. While profit-booking could trigger short-term corrections, the medium-term outlook remains bullish if these fundamentals hold.
