Analysis: Reasons Behind the Moves

The Indian equity markets snapped a two-day losing streak on Tuesday, driven primarily by a significant improvement in global risk appetite. A primary catalyst for the rebound was a statement from US President Donald Trump suggesting that the conflict between the United States and Iran could reach a resolution "very soon." This signal of de-escalation led to a dramatic retreat in energy costs, with Brent crude prices tumbling over 8% to settle near the $90 per barrel mark.

The cooling of oil prices provided a significant boost to aviation and auto stocks. Indigo rose over 3% as investors anticipated lower fuel expenses, while Mahindra & Mahindra gained momentum following reports of a 13.13% year-on-year increase in February production units. Financial and banking sectors also saw broad-based buying, with Shriram Finance leading the index gains.

Conversely, the IT sector faced a challenging session, with the Nifty IT index falling more than 1%. Heavyweights like Infosys and TCS were among the top laggards as investors rotated capital away from defensive sectors into high-growth areas benefiting from lower commodity prices. Reliance Industries also traded lower, tracking the broader weakness in the oil and gas space following the sharp correction in global crude benchmarks.
