Sensex gains 84 points, Nifty50 settles above 24,690 mark
The Indian stock market started this Monday on a brighter note, shaking off last week's losses.
Nifty50 was trading at 9:16am at 24,691.10 (up 36 points), and the Sensex climbed to 80,510.74 (up 84 points).
This week could get interesting with key economic data coming up and everyone watching for the RBI's monetary policy update on October 1.
What to expect from the market today?
Experts like Dr. VK Vijayakumar say good news from US trade talks could give Indian stocks a short-term lift. He also expects the RBI to keep interest rates steady to help growth.
Globally, US markets are up ahead of major inflation numbers, while Asian markets are mixed, with Japanese declines balanced by gains elsewhere.
Oil supply is set to rise too, thanks to Kurdistan exports resuming and OPEC+ planning more production for November.
