Indian equities edged higher at the open on Thursday, with the benchmark Nifty 50 index rising 0.67% to 25,213.50 in early trade.
The index opened at 25,213.50, with the day’s range yet to broaden as trading got under way in Mumbai. The modest gain suggests a cautiously optimistic tone among market participants at the start of the session.
No single factor from domestic media clearly accounted for the move at the time of writing. Traders will be watching for any broader directional cues as the session develops and the trading range widens through the morning.
