  • West Bengal Elections and Nifty Trading: Analysts Advise Caution Amid Political Noise
    May 3, 2026, 8:19 AM EDT. Indian equities face pressure as Nifty hovers just below 24,000 amid elevated crude oil prices and persistent foreign institutional investor (FII) selling. FIIs offloaded Rs 70,100 crore in April, driven by a weak rupee and rising US yields; domestic institutions partially offset this with Rs 51,000 crore in inflows. With elections in West Bengal, Assam, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Puducherry, experts advise caution. Analysts highlight that state elections typically create short-lived market noise rather than lasting trends. Brent crude at above $113 per barrel may influence markets more than election results. Expected Nifty moves range between 1% to 1.5% depending on outcomes; investors are advised not to chase sharp opening moves and to focus on earnings, liquidity, and global cues.
