Tariff effect, RBI MPC outcome among 9 factors that will steer D-Street this week

Indian markets fell sharply last week amid global sell-offs triggered by U.S. tariff moves and slowdown fears. Nifty dipped below 23,000, with IT and metal stocks leading losses. Key events this week include RBI’s MPC decision, U.S. inflation data, FOMC minutes, and TCS earnings. Volatility is expected to persist, driven by global cues, macro data, and earnings season kickoff.
