The Nifty Small-cap 100 index has been on an upward trajectory, gaining over 1% on November 26, 2024, marking its second consecutive day of outperformance compared to frontline indices. This rally signals a turnaround in small-cap sentiment, fueled by renewed Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) interest and a strong BJP-led Maha Yuti alliance mandate in the Maharashtra State Election.
