Smallcap equities continued their upward trajectory as traders increased exposure ahead of India’s upcoming third-quarter earnings season. Market data showed concentrated accumulation in niche manufacturing, specialty chemicals, contract services and domestic consumption names, with several stocks registering intraday gains of 10–20 percent. Analysts attributed the momentum to improving credit conditions, broader retail participation and optimism around cyclical recovery.
Despite the rally, brokerages advised caution, noting stretched valuations, limited float and elevated volatility across high-beta segments. Institutional flows remain selective, favouring companies demonstrating revenue visibility and sustainable margin profiles.
