  • India-US Trade Deal Sparks Sensex Rally, Boosts Indian Markets
    February 3, 2026, 2:08 AM EST. Indian equity markets surged with Sensex rallying over 2,400 points, rising nearly 3%, supported by the India-US trade agreement announced on Monday.

The tariff reduction positions India competitively against Asian economies. Analysts anticipate India's GDP growth to accelerate to 7.5% by FY27 and corporate earnings to climb 16-18%. This deal, combined with the upcoming EU trade pact and growth-focused budget, is expected to boost foreign investments and the rupee, improving India's Balance of Payments. Asian markets broadly followed the positive momentum, with gains in China, Japan, Hong Kong, and South Korea.
