Indian benchmark indices closed the week on a positive note, with the Nifty 50 rising 0.90% to 24,270.80 and the Sensex gaining 0.86% to 77,763.91.

The rally was driven by strong domestic macroeconomic indicators, including healthy goods and services tax (GST) collections and improving industrial output, which helped sustain growth in the manufacturing sector.

This performance marks a continuation of the resilience seen in recent sessions, where domestic fundamentals have increasingly offset external volatility.

The market's ability to post gains comes amid renewed geopolitical uncertainty stemming from escalating tensions between the United States and Iran.

While global risk sentiment has been pressured by these developments, Indian equities have shown relative stability, supported by a steady flow of domestic liquidity and positive economic data.

The divergence highlights the growing decoupling of Indian markets from broader global risk-off trends, although investors remain cautious about potential spillover effects on energy prices and trade routes.

Looking ahead, the focus shifts to how these geopolitical risks will interact with the ongoing earnings season.
