Key Decline Drivers

Weak Q3 results from Reliance Industries (flat EBITDA due to muted retail) and ICICI Bank disappointed investors. FIIs sold over ₹22,000 crore in Indian equities this January amid caution. Pre-Budget jitters ahead of February 1, 2026, event worry about capex cuts for fiscal deficit control.
