Market Performance
The Nifty 50 ended July 9, 2025, at 25,476, down 0.2 percent, reflecting cautious investor sentiment as the Q1 earnings season kicked off and US tariff developments unfolded. Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd., observed, “Global trade uncertainties, particularly the proposed 50 percent US tariffs on copper, are weighing on Indian markets, prompting a guarded approach.”
The Nifty Metal index slid 1.6 percent as metal stocks faced selling pressure, building on earlier US duties on steel and aluminum.
In contrast, the Nifty Pharma index closed higher, buoyed by the US deferring planned 200 percent tariffs on pharmaceutical imports by 12 to 18 months, easing sector concerns.
Attention is now on the IT sector, with TCS set to announce its Q1FY26 results on Thursday. Khemka noted, “We expect TCS to report a 0.5 percent quarter-on-quarter revenue decline in constant currency terms, with flat EBIT margins due to higher talent costs and lower utilization.” The broader market showed mixed performance, with the Nifty Midcap100 edging down 0.2 percent and the Smallcap100 gaining 0.5 percent.
Khemka added, “Markets are in a holding pattern, with the India-US mini trade deal’s outcome likely to steer near-term direction.” Investors remain vigilant as global and domestic cues shape sentiment.
