Indian stock markets are expected to remain highly volatile due to geopolitical developments between the United States and Iran, influencing Brent Crude oil prices. Foreign investor activity and upcoming inflation data from India and the United States will also significantly impact market movements and specific stock performance.

Indian stock markets are anticipated to experience high volatility this week, primarily driven by geopolitical tensions between the United States and Iran. Analysts are closely monitoring Brent Crude oil prices, with a sustained decline below USD 90 potentially leading to market rallies, while renewed tensions could keep volatility elevated. Additionally, key inflation data, including India's April CPI and US April CPI/PPI, will influence interest rate expectations from the State Bank of India and the United States — Federal Reserve, respectively. Foreign investors have continued to withdraw funds from Indian equities, and quarterly earnings announcements from major companies like Canara Bank, Tata Power, and Bharti Airtel are expected to drive stock-specific actions.
