What happened
Axis Bank reported a 37.6 percent year-on-year increase in net profit for the second quarter of FY27, reaching Rs 7,003.3 crore, though this figure fell slightly short of market expectations. Meanwhile, SBI Securities noted that Nifty IT was the best-performing sector this week, gaining nearly 11.72%.
Why it matters
The Nifty index staged a comeback after correcting nearly 10.5 percent, a trend that was revived as US bond yields cooled. The performance of IT stocks was key to this recovery, and the earnings announcements from large-cap banks, including Axis Bank and ICICI Bank, are driving market sentiment.
