and tax compliance.
•According to the Finance Ministry, over 140,000 guarantees worth more than Rs. 1.55 lakh

Investment Report 2026, India rose to become the world's 11th-largest FDI recipient in
2025, with foreign direct investment inflows increasing 44% to $38.9 billion, driven by its
growing appeal as a manufacturing and investment destination.
•The Employees' Provident Fund Organisation will credit Rs. 1.44 lakh crore as 8.25%
interest for FY26 to around 34 crore member accounts by Jul 15, 2026, through an

21% below last year's level due to the delayed monsoon.

•Domestic equity markets declined after
recording gains over the previous four
consecutive weeks, with the benchmark
indices, BSE Sensex and Nifty 50, falling
0.25% and 0.26%, respectively.
•Domestic equity markets fell after the
U.S. President stated at the NATO
summit that the Iran ceasefire was
effectively over, following Iranian
attacks on commercial vessels in the
Strait of Hormuz that reignited
geopolitical tensions. The escalation in
U.S.-Iran tensions pushed crude oil
prices higher, raising concerns over
global inflation. However, losses were
limited as sentiment improved in the
latter part of the week, supported by
positive global cues after a U.S. official
reaffirmed Washington's commitment
to resolving the Iran conflict through
continued technical discussions.

•On the BSE sectoral front, BSE Realty surged
5.38%, driven by improving global sentiment
after softer U.S. economic data eased concerns
over an immediate interest rate hike by the U.S.
Fed. Expectations of a more stable interest rate
environment supported investor sentiment
toward the rate-sensitive real estate sector. BSE
FMCG declined 1.18% as the sector came under
pressure during the week amid concerns that
renewed tensions between the U.S. and Iran
could push crude oil prices higher, increasing
the risk of elevated input and packaging costs
for consumer goods companies.

•Bond yields remained volatile during the
week, largely influenced by escalating
tensions in the Middle East. Yields rose
amid renewed escalation in the U.S.-Iran
conflict, which drove crude oil prices
higher, and due to a rise in U.S. Treasury
yields. However, improving monsoon
conditions, sustained foreign investor
buying in domestic bonds, and robust
investor demand at the weekly
government bond auction helped offset
the upward pressure on yields.
•Yield on the 10-year benchmark paper
(6.94% GS 2036) was unchanged to close
at 6.71% from the previous week’s close.
•Data from Reserve Bank of India showed
that India's foreign exchange reserves
increased to $674.19 billion for the week
ended Jul 03, 2026 compared with

U.S.
•U.S. equity markets rose, supported by a
strong rebound in semiconductor stocks.
The rally was further fueled by a decline
in crude oil prices recent weeks, which
helped ease earlier inflation concerns
stemming from escalating tensions in the
Middle East.
Europe
•European equity markets declined amid concerns over elevated valuations in the AI and
technology sectors. Investor sentiment remained cautious as higher energy costs
threatened to sustain inflationary pressures, while uncertainty surrounding the U.S.
Federal Reserve’s interest-rate path further limited risk appetite.
Asia
•Asian equity markets closed on a mixed note. Markets gained as investors remained
confident that the conflict would not significantly escalate across the Middle East, despite
the exchange of fire between the United States and Iran, which heightened geopolitical
concerns.
