A global selloff in equities coupled with jitters over the ongoing 2G scam marred a good week for the Indian markets. Below par Q4 GDP numbers, and disappointing reports on the core sector and manufacturing also weighed on Dalal Street. However, a drop in food inflation and steady inflows from the FIIs lent good support to the Indian indices. Finally, the BSE Sensex rose 0.6% to close at 18,376 and the NSE Nifty gained 0.7% to close at 5,517 for the week.
A combination of rising interest rates and higher cost of fuel led to a slowdown in demand for cars for a second straight month in May, hurting the auto stocks this week. FMCG stocks rose after data showed that farm output rose by a strong 7.5% in Q4 March 2011. Also, Monsoon seems to be on track. Select pharma shares also advanced amid buying of defensive plays.
