🇮🇳 Indian Markets Post Market Report Today (11.02.2026): Nifty Stays Firm Near 26,000; IT Drag vs Auto & PSU Banks Support
Indian Markets Post Market Report Today: Indian equities ended almost flat after a choppy, range-bound session.
The Nifty managed a mild gain, but the Sensex slipped slightly, as strong moves in Auto + PSU Banking were largely countered by sharp cuts in IT.
The market also looked like it’s taking a breather after a 3-day rally, with traders repeatedly watching the 26,000 zone as the near-term ceiling.
📊 Closing Bell Snapshot (Cash Market)
Nifty 50: 25,953.85 (▲ 18.70 | +0.07%)
BSE Sensex: 84,233.64 (▼ 40.28 | -0.05%)
Bank Nifty: 60,745.35 (▲ 118.95 | +0.20%)
🧠 Why the Market Moved Today (Top Reasons)
✅ 1) 26,000 acted as a strong resistance zone
Markets opened positive and even reclaimed 26,000 early, but profit booking came in near the round number, keeping indices in a tight band.
✅ 2) IT stocks were the biggest drag
The IT sector fell sharply (~1.8%), limiting index upside. The broader narrative remained cautious around US data + AI disruption worries in tech services.
✅ 3) Auto strength lifted sentiment
Nifty Auto rose ~1.30%, supported by stock-specific momentum and earnings reactions (Eicher’s surge was the headline).
✅ 4) PSU banks added stability
Buying in PSU banks (with SBI prominent) helped keep the broader tone steady even when IT weakened.

Loser (clear laggard):
💻 IT (worst performer today)
(Overall breadth was not bad: multiple sectors ended higher, but IT’s weight mattered.)
