“Indian equities turned positive after some selling pressure in the previous trading session. The benchmark index Nifty has been trading between the 17800-18250 range for the last couple of weeks. The market is expected to remain sideways due to a lack of triggers. While domestic macros have been positive along with good results so far, continuous FII selling for the last 17 days have kept the upside limited. Apart from the result season, the upcoming Union Budget could provide some direction to the market and specific sectors like Capital goods, Infra, cement, defence, etc. FMCG stocks are witnessing buying interest on the back of cool down in inflation and expectation of better Q3FY23 results.
