What Triggered The Rally?
One major reason behind the surge appears to be improving sentiment in agrochemical stocks. Investors are turning positive on companies linked to agriculture as expectations of a normal monsoon improve demand outlook.

Sector Outlook Turns Positive
The agrochemical sector has also seen better sentiment due to expectations of higher kharif sowing activity. Market participants believe stronger farm activity may support sales growth in coming quarters.
This has increased investor interest in companies with strong exposure to agricultural inputs.
