Indian Benchmarks Pause After Modest Rally

Indian benchmark indices ended almost flat on Feb. 11, 2026, pausing after three straight sessions of gains as Nifty50 rose 0.07% to 25,953.85 while the BSE Sensex slipped 0.05% to 84,233.64. Strength in auto, healthcare and banking offset a 1.8% drop in the IT index amid weak U.S. retail sales and AI-related volatility, while investors await Q3 results, inflation data and U.S.–India trade details.
