Infosys, HCL Tech, Reliance Industries Among Firms to Report Q4 2026 Earnings
Detailed Analysis
Indian Market Set for Busy Week as Over 60 Companies Report Q4 Results
The fourth quarter results season is in full swing, with more than 60 companies set to report their financial results for the quarter ending on March 31, 2026, in the coming week. This includes marquee companies such as Infosys, HCL Technologies, Reliance Industries, Tech Mahindra, Trent, Axis Bank, and Adani Green Energy.
Market participants will initially react to results from banking heavyweights such as HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank, followed by several key companies including HCL Technologies, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, Havells, IndusInd Bank, M&M Finance, and Shriram Finance. Earnings commentary, particularly on margins and demand outlook, will be closely tracked.
The Indian market has been on a positive note, with both key Indian benchmark indices - Sensex and Nifty 50 - ending the shortened trading week on a positive note, extending their winning streak to a second consecutive week. The gains were supported by easing geopolitical tensions and a pickup in investor risk appetite. Optimism surrounding a potential US-Iran peace agreement lifted market sentiment, while resilient domestic fundamentals further reinforced the rally.
Despite intermittent volatility, the broader trend stayed firmly upward, with mid- and small-cap stocks outperforming the benchmarks. Consequently, both the Sensex and Nifty climbed more than 1%, closing the week at 78,493.54 and 24,353.55, respectively.
