On Thursday, India's BSE Sensex concluded trading with a 1.5% increase, closing at 82,530.7. This upward shift countered earlier declines and was driven by optimism surrounding the US-India trade discussions. Investor mood lifted following President Donald Trump's comments that India had suggested a zero-tariff agreement, sparking expectations for a forthcoming announcement. The rise was predominantly led by gains in the auto, financial, and tech sectors, even as traders continued to evaluate corporate earnings reports.
