| Equity Market Update |
| • | Indian equity markets declined, reflecting weakness in global peers as the U.S. government shutdown stretched into its third week and trade tensions with China resurfaced. Investor sentiment was rattled after the U.S. announced an additional 100% tariff, taking the total duties to 130% on certain Chinese imports. However, the losses were partially capped following a conciliatory message from the U.S. President on social media, which eased concerns over the escalation. Caution also prevailed among investors amid the ongoing Q2 FY26 earnings season. | | • | Key benchmark indices BSE SENSEX and Nifty 50 lost 0.21% and 0.23% to close at 82,327.05 and 25,227.35 respectively. | | • | The overall market breadth on BSE was weak with 1,558 scrips advancing and 2,736 scrips declining. A total of 171 scrips remained unchanged. | | • | On the BSE sectoral front, Financial Services was the major gainer, up 0.2% followed by Utilities, up 0.19% and Bankex, up 0.11%. Information Technology was the major loser, down 0.9% followed by Capital Goods, down 0.85% and Fast Moving Consumer Goods, down 0.83%. |

| Finance and Economy |
| • | India”s retail inflation dropped to 1.54% YoY in Sep 2025 from 2.07% YoY in Aug 2025. Inflation fell to its lowest level in over eight years, driven by a sharp decline in food prices. Food inflation turned negative at -2.28%, with rural and urban areas both seeing deflation due to falling costs of vegetables, pulses, and cereals. This steep fall has raised expectations of a possible rate cut by the Reserve Bank of India, as inflation now sits below its lower tolerance band. | | • | India’s net direct tax collections rose 6.33% to over Rs. 11.89 lakh crore till Oct 12 in FY26 driven by higher corporate tax receipts and lower refunds. | | • | The RBI has allowed Indian banks and their overseas branches to lend to residents and banks in Bhutan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka to boost cross-border trade and payments. |
