“In the Interim Budget, the government emphasized empowering 4 pillars of Viksit Bharat namely Youth, Poor, Women, and Farmers. Further, the government continues to focus on consolidating the fiscal deficit and investing in infrastructure. Some of the sectors to benefit are affordable housing & finance, infra, railway, defense, and consumption. With two major events now behind, we expect markets to take support from the ongoing earning season and should remain in positive territory,” said Vinod Nair, Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.
