Factors Behind Market Rally

Robust Q1 GDP Growth

India's economy expanded by 7.8% during the April–June quarter of the current financial year, marking the fastest growth in the last five quarters. This figure surpassed economists’ expectations, indicating strong economic momentum.

Positive Signals from PM Modi’s Visit to the SCO Summit in China

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is attending the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Tianjin, China, where he has held discussions with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The visit carries significant geopolitical weight, especially in light of the recent escalation in trade tensions, with the U.S. under President Trump imposing tariffs of up to 50% on Indian imports.

US Court Declares Trump-Era Tariffs Unlawful

A U.S. appeals court recently ruled that the majority of tariffs imposed by former President Donald Trump are unlawful. However, the court has allowed the tariffs to remain in effect until October 14, providing the Trump administration an opportunity to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court.
