The NIFTY 50 was up 1.57% for the week ending October 10, 2025. After the dip in September, the recovery has been sharp. IT and Banking stocks performed well. Heavyweights – Infosys (+4.72%), Tata Consultancy Services (+4.36%), and HCL Technologies (+7.32%) led the IT space. Amidst banks – HDFC Bank posted healthy gains. Both the sectors have a relatively high FII share. The gains have happened despite only a modest improvement in FII flows.
The rally was stronger in midcaps. The NIFTY MIDCAP SELECT rose 2.78%. Most major indices witnessed gains. IT led the pack with a 5% gain for the week as worries over H1B moderated. However, the end of the week saw a resurgence of geopolitical worries as new tariffs on China led to a significant correction in US markets.
