EQUITY
Post Session: Quick Review
Jul-10-2025

Indian equity benchmarks closed lower on Thursday, weighed down by selling pressure in IT and TECK stocks. Traders remained cautious due to ongoing trade negotiations between the US and India, as well as the commencement of the Q1 FY26 earnings season. After making a slightly positive start, soon indices turned downward and stayed lower throughout the day, as traders were cautious with a private report stating that US President Donald Trump’s threat to impose new tariffs on India over its participation in the BRICS forum puts New Delhi.

Some of the important factors in today’s trade:

FTAs with Australia, UAE, UK to provide greater market access for domestic agri sector: Traders paid nod head towards Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal’s statement that free trade agreements (FTAs) with developed markets such as Australia, UAE and UK will provide greater market access for the domestic agri sector.

PM Modi holds talks with Namibia President Nandi-Ndaitwah: Traders took note of report that Prime Minister Narendra Modi held talks with Namibian President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah focused on imparting a new momentum to the bilateral ties.

India witnessing rapid surge in foreign investments: Traders overlooked Secretary of Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways, Government of India T.K. Ramachandran’s statement that India has become the fourth-largest economy, having surpassed $4 trillion and is witnessing a rapid surge in foreign investments. 

Global front: European markets were trading in green as optimism prevailed about a potential trade deal between the U.S. and the European Union. Asian markets ended mostly in green as the Bank of Korea left its interest rate unchanged, citing risks associated with rising household debt and escalating trade tensions.
