📉 IT Stocks Lead the Decline on Dalal Street

One of the major reasons behind Monday’s market weakness was the selling pressure in technology stocks. Global concerns around growth in the tech sector, particularly in the US and Europe, spilled over to Indian IT counters.

Asian Paints: -1.58% (worst performer of the day)
Tech Mahindra
Bajaj Finance

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)
Larsen & Toubro
Tata Motors

These stocks weighed heavily on the broader market, dragging both indices further down during the session.

🟢 Stocks That Provided Some Support

Despite the overall bearish trend, some blue-chip stocks managed to gain on Monday. Among the top gainers in the Sensex basket were:

Eternal
Titan
Mahindra & Mahindra
ITC

These companies saw positive sentiment thanks to sectoral momentum and strong institutional interest.

🌍 FIIs Continue to Exit: Major Foreign Outflows Persist

According to stock exchange data, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth ₹5,104.22 crore on Friday, July 11, reflecting a trend of consistent outflows that’s been hurting domestic market sentiment.

Reasons for FII Selling:

Rising US bond yields
Strengthening dollar index
Global economic uncertainties
Concerns around India’s tech earnings in Q1 FY26

💰 Rupee Falls Below 86 Mark: Ends at 86.02 vs USD

On the macroeconomic front, the Indian rupee depreciated by 22 paise on Monday and closed at ₹86.02 against the US dollar. This marks the first time in recent weeks that the currency has breached the 86 mark, putting additional pressure on import-heavy sectors like oil and aviation.

Factors Behind Rupee Weakness:

Rise in global crude oil prices
Strengthening US dollar
Continued FII outflows from Indian equities

📊 Market Trend Since July 9: Four Days of Consistent Fall

Since July 9, both the Sensex and Nifty have been on a downward trajectory. Over this four-day losing streak, the Sensex has fallen by a total of 1,460 points (1.75%), and the Nifty has slipped by 440 points (1.73%).

Cumulative Losses Since July 9:

Sensex: Down 1,460 points
Nifty: Down 440 points
Broader indices: Small-cap and mid-cap stocks also witnessed minor corrections

🏢 Tata Technologies Q1 Results: Steady Growth in Profits

Amid the broader selloff, Tata Technologies offered some positive news. The company reported a consolidated net profit of ₹170.28 crore for the quarter ending June 2025, compared to ₹162.03 crore in the corresponding period last year.

Tata Technologies Q1 FY26 Highlights:

Net Profit: ₹170.28 crore (up from ₹162.03 crore)
Strong demand in EV and manufacturing segments
Positive revenue growth outlook for the upcoming quarters

📈 Expert Market Outlook: What to Expect Ahead?

Market analysts believe that volatility may persist in the short term due to global economic headwinds, quarterly earnings season, and foreign fund movements.

Key Triggers to Watch This Week:

Q1 FY26 earnings of major IT and banking companies
Crude oil price trends
Dollar-Rupee exchange rate
US inflation data and global interest rate outlook

“The Indian markets are under pressure due to continued FII selling and weak global cues. However, strong domestic fundamentals may help the indices recover later this month,” said a senior analyst from ICICI Securities.

🧠 Investor Takeaway: What Should You Do Now?

For retail investors, the current market correction presents both a challenge and an opportunity.

Tips for Investors:

Avoid panic selling during temporary corrections
Focus on long-term fundamentals
Diversify your portfolio with defensive sectors like FMCG and pharma
Monitor Q1 results of key index-heavy companies

📌 Conclusion: Markets Need Fresh Triggers for Recovery

With four straight days of losses and key indices nearing psychological support levels, the Indian stock market is in need of a positive trigger—either in the form of strong earnings or positive global developments. Until then, FIIs selling, IT stock underperformance, and rupee depreciation may keep Sensex and Nifty under pressure.

Indian Stock Market Closes Lower Again Amid IT Selloff and Global Uncertainty

On July 14, 2025, the Indian stock market witnessed yet another day of decline, extending its losing streak to four consecutive sessions. Both Sensex and Nifty 50 ended in negative territory, largely weighed down by a selloff in major IT stocks and weak global cues. Investors remained cautious amid disappointing earnings, particularly from Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), and geopolitical uncertainties impacting global risk sentiment.

Sensex ended 247.01 points lower at 82,253.46, recovering slightly from an intraday low of 82,010.38

This is the fourth day in a row that Indian stock indices have closed lower
Cumulative loss in Sensex over four days stands at 1,460 points, and Nifty is down 440 points since July 9

🧠 Expert Insights: IT Sector Weighs Heavily on Sentiment

According to Vaibhav Vidwani, Research Analyst at Bonanza, the weakness in the IT sector was the primary drag on markets. A mix of soft quarterly earnings, especially from TCS, and global worries over tech demand hurt investor confidence.

🔻 IT Stocks Performance:

TCS: Decline following weak Q1 results and cautious guidance
Wipro, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, HCL Technologies: Average drop of 1.5%
Broader IT index saw significant pressure due to global headwinds and earnings outlook

“TCS’s muted earnings triggered a broad-based selloff across the IT pack, signaling a cautious road ahead for the sector,” said Vidwani.

🌐 Global Cues Add to Investor Anxiety

Weak global sentiment also contributed to market declines. Investors worldwide are watching the US inflation data closely, amid rising concerns over the US-China trade tensions and geopolitical conflicts.

⚠️ Key Global Factors Impacting Indian Market:

Anticipation of US Fed’s rate decision based on inflation data
Ongoing global trade war concerns
Weak tech earnings from global peers
Cautious FII sentiment impacting liquidity

📊 Market Breadth Weak; Select Stocks Offer Support

Despite the bearish tone, banking and pharma stocks offered some support to the indices. However, the market breadth remained skewed towards declines, with more losers than gainers.

🟢 Select Gainers in the Market:

Mahindra & Mahindra
Titan Company
ITC
Eternal
Banking stocks: Some PSU and private sector banks showed resilience
Pharma: Select pharmaceutical counters attracted buying interest amid global health concerns

🏢 Corporate News Highlights: Earnings & Contracts

💸 Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) Continue Selling

FIIs remained net sellers in the Indian markets. On July 11, foreign investors sold equities worth ₹5,104.22 crore, adding pressure to domestic benchmarks.

❗ Impact of FII Selling:

Depletes liquidity in domestic equity markets
Weakens investor sentiment
Increases volatility, especially in large-cap stocks

💵 Rupee Falls Below 86 Mark Against Dollar

The Indian rupee depreciated 22 paise to settle at ₹86.02 per US dollar on Monday, breaching a crucial psychological level.

📉 Rupee Fall Triggered By:

Rise in global crude oil prices
Strengthening of the US Dollar Index
Continued capital outflows by FIIs
Geopolitical uncertainties

The fall in rupee value increases the cost of imports and may impact India’s current account deficit and inflation outlook.

📈 Outlook: What’s Next for Indian Stock Market?

Experts believe the Indian equity market could remain volatile in the near term as investors react to:

Q1 FY26 corporate earnings, especially in IT and banking sectors
Macro indicators like inflation, interest rates, and foreign exchange movements
Global economic conditions and central bank decisions

“Until global uncertainty subsides and earnings momentum picks up, markets may remain range-bound with bouts of correction,” noted a senior fund manager.
