  • Sensex and Nifty Open Mixed Ahead of Union Budget 2026
    January 31, 2026, 11:01 PM EST. Indian benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 showed volatility on February 1, 2026, ahead of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's Union Budget presentation at 11 a.m. IST. Sensex slipped 0.11% to 82,178 while Nifty 50 dropped 0.17% to 25,279 in early trading. However, GIFT Nifty futures suggested a likely higher opening. The Nifty 50 has gained 7.8% since last year's budget but trails peers due to foreign outflows and subdued corporate earnings. Debt and forex markets remained closed. Several fund houses maintained positive ratings on major stocks including Nestle, NTPC, and Bajaj Auto, with mixed target prices reflecting cautious investor sentiment ahead of key fiscal announcements.
