What happened
Asian equities fell around 1% in early trade following adverse signals from Europe and the US. The Sensex dropped 0.45% to 72,314.15, and the Nifty fell 0.53% to 22,483.05. Investors are currently focused on Tata Consultancy Services' Q2 and H1 results, specifically its outlook and AI spending.
Why it matters
The market is reacting to global risk signals, which are compounded by concerns over inflation driven by elevated crude prices and geopolitical risks. The Reserve Bank of India's hawkish stance may also keep markets under pressure, particularly for rate-sensitive sectors.
Amid the war in West Asia, companies are reportedly trimming tech budgets.
