On Friday, India's benchmark indices saw a significant increase, following a global market surge driven by the U.S. Federal Reserve's decision to reduce interest rates by 50 basis points.
The Nifty 50 opened at 25,525.95, marking a gain of 110.15 points or 0.43%, while the Sensex rose by 418.24 points or 0.50% to reach 83,603.04.
“US markets rebounded strongly, with the S&P 500 touching its 39th all-time high. Asian markets are largely positive as well. India saw a surprising negative figure for FII flows on Wednesday. Many foreign brokerages are highlighting India’s high valuations as a concern, with the MSCI India Index trading at 24 times forward PE,” said Ajay Bagga, Banking and Market Expert.
