IT Stocks Leading the Rally

IT stocks displayed remarkable performance, with Infosys, TCS, and Wipro leading the charge, all surging over 2%. The sector is capitalizing on robust global demand for IT services and advancements in cloud computing and other emerging technologies.

Banking Stocks Underperforming

Banking stocks struggled today, lagging behind the broader market, as State Bank of India, HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank all experienced declines exceeding 1%. Rising interest rates and concerns over economic growth pose challenges for the banking sector.

Rupee Weakens Against Dollar

The Indian rupee depreciated against the dollar, closing at 82.17, down 10 paise. The fall can be attributed to the strength of the dollar and rising crude oil prices, which impact the import bill.

Volatility Expected in the Near Future
