Market Performance
Reflecting on the market performance today, Ashika Institutional Equities noted that despite mixed global cues, Indian markets opened the day on a subdued note but quickly gained strength, with Nifty trading positively throughout the session and closing near the day’s high. Sectorally, metals, IT, healthcare, pharma, and PSU banks led the rally, while media stocks posted a flat performance. Pharma shares received a particular boost as the Trump administration clarified it will not impose tariffs on generic drug imports from overseas. In the derivatives segment, a notable surge in open interest was observed in MCX, UNOMINDA, PRESTIGE, and AMBERPGEL, reflecting active participation and bullish sentiment in these counters.
