The benchmark indices opened lower tracking mixed Asian cues after on Friday Wall Street ended a six-day run of record highs after the first monthly decline in US non-farm jobs in seven years.

Sentiment turned cautious as earnings season for the July-September quarter kicks off this week with over 30 companies scheduled to report their Q2 numbers. These include, TCS, Reliance Industries, South India Bank, IndusInd Bank, Cyient, and Bajaj Corporation, among others.

The combined net profit of Nifty50 companies is expected to grow by 7.4% on a year-on-year (YoY) basis in Q2FY18, against 1.8% decline during the June 2017 quarter and 8.5% growth during the corresponding period a year ago.

Q2 earnings preview

India’s top 50 listed firms, which comprise the benchmark NSE Nifty50 index, are expected to report a mild recovery in earnings during the July-September 2017 quarter, driven by a relatively good show by banks and commodity producers.

However, domestic manufacturers and information technology (IT) exporters are likely to continue in the slow lane due to a combination of the disruption due to the goods and services tax (GST), poor demand, and rise in input costs.
