When we talk about Sectoral Performance in NSE. It is quite evident that if you do not know which sector is profitable at which time, then the share market won’t help you earn money. Hence, it is important to understand which are the strong sectors and which are the weak sectors from time to time. It is simple to comprehend that if a particular sector is currently weak, it is not likely to remain so in the future. So investing in it can be profitable when the sector turns around. On the other hand, if a sector is doing well or about to end the phase of a bullish market, then getting out of that sector is the ideal path to be taken.
The following live dashboard analyses NSE sector rotation, sector strength, and relative momentum using real-time market data. Traders can use it to quickly identify the strongest and weakest sectors in the Indian stock market.

What is Sectoral Performance?
Nifty deftly distinguishes different industries and creates an index comprised of companies from the same sector. It is the Sectoral Index. For specific industries or sectors, these indices give summaries as well as benchmarking data. It allows investors to compare the performance of a stock to that of other industries.
Suppose 10 IT companies enlisted in National Stock Exchange. It is not necessary that all those companies get listed in the same period of time. But all those companies are trading on the stock market. Hence, all the companies belong to the same sector. So the stock exchange thinks to sum up all the companies and put a name to it, as the Nifty IT Index. It shows an overall view of the IT market in general.

How to Use the Sector-Wise Performance in NSE
Many people get afraid to invest in a single share. As they believe that if that stock does not perform well in the long run, then it will be a loss-making decision for them. To avoid such a situation, they most likely invest in sectors such as Pharma, Auto, Health, etc or in the sectoral mutual funds. In the long run, such sectors never let you down. Not only that, but it also helps to gain a lot of profit by doing options trading. But we also have to keep in mind that if you are a regular trader who likes to make a profit by doing swing trading or intraday trading, then it is important to keep track of the sectors daily.
If you want to invest in a particular stock, then finding out the right one is the most important for you. First, select a sector that has turned from a bear market to a bull market recently. After that, select those stocks which are profitable among all. For that, calculate the 30-day and 90-day return averages. Now, after all the calculations, if you find the stock profitable, then invest in it. But you have to keep in mind that it is for a long time. I shared this process for intraday traders. It has just started its bullish trend.
Stock-Wise Example
As of 27th January 2022, Nifty was trading weakly. Nifty Realty Index was the weakest of all the sectoral indices. And, Godrej Properties Ltd and Indiabulls Real Estate Ltd were the weakest stocks of the Nifty Realty Index. They are on their bearish trend. So let’s see how to earn money from it. The market is weak, the sector is weak, and the stock is going through a bearish trend. How to earn money from such a share by doing intraday trading will be discussed in the following.
So first put the chart on a 5min then add the stochastic indicator to it. Adjust the setting by changing the smooth section to 3 and leaving the other two the same as it is by default. If the momentum hits 80, then consider it as the best opportunity for a short sell. As it suggests that the stock has been over-bought there is a possibility that the next move of the traders might be going to be is selling. So, doing a short sell in such a stock is the best option.
As you can see, the above chart of 27th January 2022 is of Godrej Properties. If we take a look at the Stochastic indicator, we shall see that at the end of the day, there are three red lines that formed because at that time the line was above 80. That suggests an overbought situation. It is the best time to do a short sell. Whenever the line hits 80, sell and wait as soon as the line starts to come down, word buy at that time. That is how you can earn an amount on an intraday basis.
On 27.01.2022, the Stochastics Indicator in Indiabulls Real Estate Ltd has also gone up to 80 twice. It means there is more than one chance of doing a short sell. Short selling is possible in the stock whenever the stochastics touch the mark of 80 and start to fall. Buy it back as soon as it goes below 20. This is the process to earn from it.
Example of Nifty Auto Index as Sector Rotation Candidate
Nifty Auto holds the best stocks in the Automobile Sector. The NIFTY Auto Index is intended to reflect the share market’s behaviour and performance in the Automobiles sector. Automobiles such as 4 wheelers, 2 & 3 wheelers, Auto Ancillaries, and Tyres are all represented in the index. This index contains 15 large-cap companies in the automobile sector. The current price of this index is 11,717.70 rupees. If we look from an average perspective, we shall see that this sector always gives a good return. But if you are an intraday or swing trader, then it is important to analyse every aspect of that index before investing in it.
Suppose that the sector has not been doing well for the last few days. That means it is going through a bearish phase. But you still invest in it. Expecting that in future this sector will earn you profit. So investing your money, keeping that in mind, is an important lesson that Sectoral Performance taught us.
If we look upon it as a sectoral investment, then it might be a golden opportunity for you. As the market is in a bearish phase, it does not mean it will remain the same for the next few months. Possibilities are that the sector will soon start its bullish trend.
More Chart Analysis for Intraday Trading
Nifty was weak, and the weakest stocks of the Nifty IT sector are Coforge Ltd and MindTree Ltd. As of 27th January 2022, I observe both the charts of the stocks. But I found that MindTree has given me the opportunity to do a short sell twice.
But on the other hand, Coforge Ltd mostly went sideways. It does not hit the 80 mark to short sell. So there was no chance of doing a short sell as an intraday trader or buying and holding the stock as an investor.
FAQ about Sectoral Performance in NSE
The Nifty index smartly separates different industries and makes an index out of that same sector-related companies. It is called the Sectoral Index. These indices provide summaries as well as benchmarking information for certain industries or sectors. It enables investors to compare a stock’s performance to that of various industries.
Nifty Bank Index or Bank Nifty, Nifty Financial Services, Nifty FMCG Index, Nifty Healthcare Index, Nifty IT Index, Nifty Media Index, etc., are some of the well-known Sectors to invest in.

Sectoral Analysis is a study of a particular industry’s economic and financial situation and prospects. An investor can use sectoral analysis to decide how well companies in that sector are projected to perform.
Suppose you have put your money in the IT Sector and also have earned a profit from it. But when that stock started its downtrend, you did nothing but hold the shares, which left you with a big loss. Now, understand that whenever any sector starts its bearish run, simply book your profit and put your money into a new sector that has just come out of its negative returns to the positive ones. Rotating your money from a bearish sector to a bullish sector is called Sectoral Rotation.
Conclusion
At the end of the writing, we can see that if you put money on the best return-giving stocks of the best return-providing sectors, then finding out the right time to get out of the market is very important. But there are also ways which you can use to earn profit from the low-return giving sectors, such as short selling. If a sector is not doing well, then find out the best stocks of that sector, calculate its average return amount and then think whether you want to invest in that stock now or wait for the bullish trend of that sector.
The Sectoral Performance in NSE helps to determine the average returns of different indices, which can be used to understand the present situation of that index. If you handle the indices smartly, then you can earn from both the best and the worst performing sectors of NSE.
