📈 Sensex Today: Indian Markets Open Cautious Friday After Thursday’s Dip

Indian indices started Friday’s trading on a cautious note. The Nifty index opened higher at 24,639.50 compared to Thursday’s close, while the Sensex opened slightly lower.

Markets aim to end the week positively as the earnings season wraps up and expiry-related volatility subsides, despite ongoing global market nervousness. Thursday saw a sharp sell-off on Wall Street and Nifty 50 options expiry, leading to the Nifty closing in the red. However, a positive sign is the bulls defending the 24,500 level, establishing it as strong support.

Wall Street had a volatile session overnight, with benchmark indices losing gains late in trading to close flat. Bond yields remain elevated. Investors are watching reactions to earnings from ITC, Sun Pharma, and Grasim, with JSW Steel also reporting today. Keep an eye on MTAR Tech, GMR Airports, Ola Electric, and IndusInd Bank for their respective news flow.
