Main Drivers
IT stocks benefited from a rebound after early session losses tied to US-Iran tensions, as the sector is seen as relatively insulated from geopolitical risks.
Easing crude oil prices—from $111.80 to $109 per barrel—improved sentiment, alongside a stronger rupee at 92.98 per dollar.
Positive global cues emerged from Asian tech rallies, including Samsung’s profit jump, boosting Indian IT peers.
Key Contributors
Top performers included Infosys and Hindalco, each up around 3%, with all Nifty IT constituents trading higher.
Expectations of solid March quarter results for IT firms added momentum ahead of earnings season.
Anticipation of the RBI policy decision tomorrow also kept focus on growth-sensitive sectors like IT
Nifty top gainers featured strong IT and financial stocks today. Losers were limited, led by energy majors amid oil volatility.
