Realty firm Signature Global on Sunday reported a sharp decline in its sales bookings for the December quarter, even as the housing market usually sees strong demand during the festive season.

The Gurugram-based company said its sales bookings fell 27 per cent to Rs 2,020 crore in the October–December quarter, compared to Rs 2,770 crore in the same period last financial year, according to its stock exchange filing.

The company sold 408 housing units during the quarter, a steep drop from 1,518 units sold a year ago.

Analysts on Sunday said that foreign institutional investors (FIIs) will turn buyers in India with positive developments on the US-India trade agreement and uptick in earnings growth, which will improve investor sentiment.

FII investment in early 2026 has begun with the continuation of the trend of the previous year.

In 2025, FIIs had net sold equity for Rs 166,283 crore, impacting the performance of the Indian market and also weakening the rupee by about 5 per cent.

Indian stock markets are expected to remain volatile in the coming week as investors brace for a mix of key domestic and global triggers, including the start of the December quarter earnings season, the release of crucial inflation data, and continued uncertainty over US trade policies.

Benchmark indices ended the past week on a weak note, extending their losing streak to five sessions, as caution ahead of corporate results and persistent foreign fund outflows kept sentiment subdued.

The focus will now shift to how companies perform in the December quarter and whether macroeconomic numbers provide any relief to markets.
