Here’s a quick wrap-up where we break down the performance of key indices, top corporate movers, and the major economic headlines of the day.
The domestic market witnessed a volatile session where the frontline indices scaled fresh record highs in opening trade, with Bank Nifty briefly crossing the 60,000 milestone, before ending flat. The sentiment was weighed down by the Indian Rupee hitting a new all-time low and cautiousness ahead of the RBI policy meeting later this week.
On the sectoral front, Nifty Auto was the top gainer driven by strong November sales numbers, while Nifty Realty and Nifty Healthcare were the top laggards, down 1.02% and 0.97%, respectively.

What’s Happening Beyond Markets?
- India’s Index of Industrial Production (IIP) recorded a modest growth of 0.4% in October 2025, as festive holidays reduced working days and contributed to contractions in the mining and electricity sectors despite a 1.8% rise in manufacturing.
- The government has sought Parliament’s approval for net additional spending of ₹41,455 crore for the 2025-26 fiscal year, primarily to fund ₹18,525 crore in fertilizer subsidies.
- India’s gross GST collections for November 2025 rose marginally by 0.7% to ₹1,70,276 crore, as strong import revenues helped offset a dip in domestic collections attributed to recent tax rate cuts.
- The Indian rupee slumped to a record low of 89.76 against the US dollar on Monday, pressured by maturing non-deliverable forward positions and uncertainty surrounding the delayed US-India trade deal.
- India’s UPI transactions surged to over 19 billion in November 2025 with a total value of ₹24.58 lakh crore, marking a robust 23% year-on-year growth in volume.

What is the Index of Industrial Production (IIP)?
The IIP is a monthly economic indicator that tracks the manufacturing activity of various sectors in an economy. Think of it as a “health check” for the country’s factories, mines, and utilities. It measures the volume of production rather than the value, telling us if we are making more things (cars, steel, electricity) compared to a base year.
Why does it matter? It is a leading indicator of economic growth (GDP). When IIP is strong, companies are producing more, which usually means they expect higher demand. In today’s news, India’s IIP growth slowed to 0.4%, but this was largely because festive holidays reduced the number of working days – a classic example of how seasonal factors can temporarily skew these numbers.
