Indian equity markets are expected to open on a flat note on Thursday, with Gift Nifty indicating a subdued start as investors remain cautious ahead of the Union Budget and assess global developments. Gift Nifty futures were trading near 25,371, pointing to an opening close to Wednesday’s Nifty 50 close of 25,342.75.
The benchmark indices have gained around 1% over the past two sessions, supported by optimism following the India–European Union free trade agreement and the US Federal Reserve’s decision to keep interest rates unchanged. However, the broader market trend in early 2026 remains weak due to sustained foreign investor outflows.
Foreign institutional investors have sold Indian equities worth over Rs 43,000 crore so far this month, following record outflows of $19 billion in 2025. The selling pressure has been visible across market segments, with small- and mid-cap stocks underperforming amid heightened risk aversion.
Global cues remain mixed, with Asian markets trading lower while Wall Street posted modest gains after the Fed reiterated its data-dependent approach to monetary policy. Market participants are now focused on the Union Budget for FY27, scheduled to be presented on February 1, which is expected to set the tone for growth expectations, earnings outlook and investor sentiment in the coming months.
