The focus in domestic equities would remain on earnings for the coming week, said two analysts.

India's most valuable company, Reliance Industries reported 19% growth in fourth-quarter profit, aided by the strong performance in oil-to-chemicals (O2C) segment, post market hours on Friday.

Private lender ICICI Bank posted a 30% jump in net profit in the March quarter, helped by improved net interest income and loan growth.

The strong earnings of the two companies, which account for nearly 20% of the total weightage in Nifty 50, could improve the sentiment soured by the weak earnings and outlook of top information technology companies, analysts added.

The benchmark Nifty 50 snapped a three-week winning streak on Friday, dragged by IT stocks. Foreign institutional investors extended their selling streak for five straight sessions on Friday, offloading 21.17 billion rupees ($258.1 million) of shares.

IndusInd Bank Ltd, Bajaj Auto Ltd, Bajaj Finance Ltd, Maruti Suzuki Ltd, Hindustan Unilever Ltd, Axis Bank Ltd, ACC Ltd, Wipro Ltd, Ultratech Cement Ltd and Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd are among the companies due to report their quarterly numbers this week.

Stocks to Watch:

** Yes Bank Ltd: Lender's net profit slumps 45% in the March quarter on higher provisions.

** Tejas Networks Ltd: Co's consolidated loss after tax narrows in Q4.

** HDFC Asset Management Co Ltd: Firm gets market regulator SEBI's final approval to change control of company.
