The Indian stock market finally broke its four-day losing streak on Thursday, with the Sensex rising 158 points to 85,265.32 and the Nifty gaining 48 points to close at 26,033.75.
IT stocks led the rebound, and everyone's watching for what the Reserve Bank of India will announce in its policy update on Friday.

What else is moving?

While India saw a bounce, most Asian markets slipped, with Japan leading the drop, after a subdued Wall Street session pressured tech stocks and bonds.
For Friday, early signs point to a cautious start in India.
Meanwhile, companies like HUL, IndiGo, ITC Hotels, Zaggle Prepaid, and Star Health are getting extra attention from investors thanks to recent news around them.
