Indian equities witnessed mild recovery on Tuesday with the Nifty gaining 0.4%. Analysts say the index is expected to trade in a broader range in the near term amid ongoing global macro uncertainty and sustained Foreign Institutional Investor outflows. Broader markets may continue to witness stock-specific movement, while investor focus is likely to remain on the RBI monetary policy outcome, keeping rate-sensitive sectors active. IT stocks are also expected to remain in focus following buying interest driven by positive commentary from global AI companies and strength in global technology shares.
