Feb 1, 2026 08:32 AM IST Stock Market Live Updates: Stock Market Performance on January 30 According to Gaurav Garg, expert at Lemon Markets Desk, benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty recovered sharply after initial falls on January 30, supported by value buying and positive signals from the economic survey. “Buying interest was seen in defensive and consumption-heavy stocks with Apollo Hospitals, Tata Consumer Products, Nestle, Dr Reddy’s Laboratories and ITC emerging as top gainers in the Nifty pack.

Sentiment improved after the Economic Survey projected India’s GDP growth at 7. 2 per cent in FY2027, on the back of strong domestic demand and steady capital expenditure.

Note that low inflation and Resilient credit growth could support double-digit nominal GDP growth and healthy income expansion in the last two sessions, which indicated a possible change in FPI strategy. Moreover, investors’ positioning for announcements in favor of infrastructure, defence, renewables on February 1 was key support for Nifty.

Holds in 25,000-25,050 zone while a sustained move above 25,450 will be required. Ongoing pullback rally. โ€.
