After the Economic Survey 2023, markets are now eyeing Union Budget 2023 which is set to be presented on Wednesday, 1 February. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s announcements, along with the US Fed’s interest rate hike decision, will dictate how domestic equities react tomorrow. Any favourable announcement that can boost economic growth, private investment, or consumption is likely to be cheered by investors on Dalal Street, and lead to a positive reaction from retail investors. Meanwhile, if the Budget announcements do not favour any particular sector or do not contribute to boosting income and capital expenditure, stock markets could react negatively and plummet.
