The Indian stock market witnessed a slight decline today, influenced by mixed global cues and domestic anticipation of the Union Budget 2026. The prospect of fiscal discipline and capex push in the upcoming budget buoyed sectors like Infra and Realty, while weakness in global commodity prices pressured metal stocks, leading to significant losses for Hind Zinc and Vedanta. The EU-India trade deal provided a positive outlook for export-driven sectors, but global trade tensions and potential US interest rate changes kept investors cautious.
