On February 23, 2026, Indian 
IN equity benchmarks rose following a significant ruling where the U.S. 
US Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs. This judicial decision immediately altered near-term tariff expectations and provided a lift to domestic markets, with the Nifty 50 advancing 0.55 percent and the BSE Sensex increasing by 0.58 percent. However, the upward movement was partially constrained by reports from the Indian trade ministry regarding a delay of India's trade delegation to Washington, which had been scheduled for this week.
