Sensex Today: Benchmark equity indices BSE Sensex and Nifty50 opened with modest gains on Thursday, amid mixed global cues.
At the opening bell, the BSE Sensex was up by 126 points, or 0.17%, at 76,297, while the Nifty 50 rose by 62.30 points, or 0.27%, to 23,107.55.
Macroeconomic data, including a lower retail inflation figure for January and industrial production data from India, along with a higher-than-expected inflation reading in the US, are likely to influence the markets today. Other factors, such as mixed global cues, December quarter results from Indian companies, the weekly Nifty F&O expiry, and continued selling by foreign institutional investors (FIIs), are also expected to play a role. Additionally, investors will be closely watching Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s first meeting with US President Donald Trump since his re-election.
