  • The domestic market opened strong, buoyed by favorable global cues and anticipation for the Q2 FY26 earnings season, but closed with flattish gains as expectations remain modest. Financial stocks advanced on RBI reforms from the October 1 policy, while FMCG underperformed due to weak pre-result updates.
