The Indian stock market opened on a positive note on Tuesday, with Sensex climbing over 200 points and the Nifty holding firm above 24,800, tracking strength in Asian equities. Investor sentiment was boosted by rising expectations of a U.S. Federal Reserve rate cut this month, which improved risk appetite.
The Nifty IT index led the rally, posting robust gains, while auto, consumer durables, and mid-small cap indices slipped marginally. Most other sectors traded flat to mildly positive, indicating selective buying across segments.
Adding to the global narrative, gold futures hit an all-time high, reflecting investors’ shift toward safe-haven assets amid lingering global uncertainties and policy speculation.
