"An INC sweep of the state elections would have led markets to reassess their probability of the BJP returning to power in the 2024 general elections with a strong majority. It would have strengthened INC’s leadership position within the fractious anti-BJP opposition alliance, I.N.D.I.A. Instead, the INC’s poor performance is likely to make for more differences within the opposition camp," said Nomura India.
"Also, the strong performance of the BJP should somewhat allay market concerns around political risks into the general elections. It indicates that there is broad political support for the BJP and PM Modi, and reaffirms the early opinion polls for the general elections that have so far predicted a clean sweep for the BJP. These Hindi heartland states account for close to 12 per cent of the Lok Sabha (Lower House) seats and have traditionally been a strong support base for the BJP at the centre," it said.
VK Vijayakumar of Geojit Financial Services said the hare market prefers political stability and a reform-oriented, market-friendly government. From that perspective, he said, the state election results were better-than-expected.
"The market has already partly discounted a BJP victory with a 500 point rally during the last 4 sessions. But the mood is so exuberant that the rally will continue," he said.
