Russia's invasion of Ukraine will remain a primary focus for nervous investors as they scrutinise new inflation numbers and the rising price of oil in the coming week.
Domestic stock markets fell almost 3% on Thursday morning, joining a global stock sell-off as the worsening situation between Russia and Ukraine and rising crude oil prices weighed on investors' minds. Concerned about the potential of a lengthy crisis in Ukraine and its influence on the Indian economy, investors reduced their positions.

India is the world's third-largest crude oil importer, and rising prices exacerbate the country's trade and current account deficits, as well as harming the rupee and fueling imported inflation.

While the Federal Reserve of the United States will meet next month to consider whether to raise interest rates and tighten liquidity, it is expected that the Fed will not act aggressively.
Other worrying sign is the impact of rising oil prices on the Indian economy, that is occurring at a time when inflation is near 6%, considerably above the Reserve Bank of India's upper limit.
