Indian stock markets see gains driven by Reliance and lower crude prices
Indian stock markets experienced gains on Tuesday, with the Sensex rising by over 200 points and the Nifty trading above 24,600. The rise was attributed to buying in Reliance Industries and ICICI Bank, alongside lower crude oil prices. The Reserve Bank of India's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) kept interest rates unchanged, a decision that influenced market sentiment. Some reports noted a significant difference in closing prices across exchanges, creating arbitrage opportunities for traders. Market volatility eased as traders adapted to a new closing auction session.
