Indian markets opened with a positive bias following a strong performance by US stocks overnight. This shift was largely driven by a decline in global crude oil prices, which eased concerns over high fuel costs and inflation. Additionally, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) maintained its key interest rates steady, providing a stable backdrop for investors.
The 'Gift Nifty' futures also pointed to a higher opening for the Nifty 50 index. Traders are now closely watching the minutes from the RBI's monetary policy committee meeting for any hints on future rate cuts. Furthermore, global cues and crude oil trends will continue to play a crucial role in determining the market's direction for the rest of the day.
