November Market Recap: Top Trends of the Month

In November 2025, the Indian stock market stabilized, primarily driven by global rate speculations and a strong surge in Domestic Institutional Investor (DII) flows. Although the market faced pressure from persistent Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) selling, it proved resilient. Strong corporate earnings, particularly from PSU banks and IT, supported sentiment.

November Market Roundup
November 2025 was a month driven by global rate expectations, sharp sector rotations, easing inflation, and a rebound in domestic liquidity flows. Despite persistent foreign selling early in the month, strong earnings from banks and IT, along with improving consumption indicators, helped the markets stabilise and close November on a positive note.
Nifty 50 Performance in November: The Nifty 50 traded above 26,200 in the last trading sessions of November and finished the month roughly in the 26.1kโ26.3k area. The Sensex traded in the ~85.7k area around the same dates.
November 2025 Market Roundup: November was marked by a clear shift toward stability and selective accumulation, powered by:
Global central banks: Fed commentary in late November kept market focus on the timing of potential rate moves โ that backdrop created intra-month volatility in risk appetite globally and in India.
Liquidity & domestic flows: Domestic Institution Investors (DIIs / mutual funds) remained an important source of demand throughout November; FIIs were net sellers for much of the month but flows softened late-November. Official FII/DII trading summaries and market coverage show this dynamic.
Key Highlights:
Corporate Earnings and Sector Leadership;
Banks (especially PSU banks) and select IT names posted reassuring quarters that supported market sentiment; PSU Bank indices recorded strong gains during November. Multiple market reports and sector pieces highlighted PSU bank strength and improving asset quality narratives.
Foreign Flows;
FIIs were net sellers for most of November (Net outflows reported during the month), while DIIs continued to buy โ press coverage and NSE provisional trade summaries document the direction and quantum of these flows.
Commodities;
Gold: Rose in late-November amid renewed rate-cut speculation globally and Fed comments.
Brent Crude: Traded lower on weak global demand signals over the month (monthly decline in the November window). Historical commodity data shows Brent easing across the month.
Market performance & Outlook
Market Tone in November: Overall market tone was neutral-to-mildly positive by month-end as domestic liquidity and favourable corporate prints offset intermittent global risk aversion. Closing-level reporting and live market coverage around Nov 28โ30 show indices hovering near record/high ranges, with intra-month churn.
Sectoral Movements
November 2025, the monthly sectoral performance was marked by strong gains across most sectors, with seven major indices closing in the red. The top performers were the IT sector, which led the gains with a rise of 4.77%, and the PSU Bank sector, which followed closely with an increase of 4.03%. Conversely, the Media sector, which was the steepest loser with a fall of 4.38%, and the Realty sector, which declined by 4.69.
