The Indian stock market is anticipated to commence on a muted note on Friday, November 13, as GIFT Nifty indicates a lacklustre start for the benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty 50. GIFT Nifty was trading at approximately 25,266.50, reflecting a decline of 34.50 points, or 0.12%, from the prior close of Nifty futures, suggesting a measured beginning for domestic equities. On Thursday, Indian benchmark indices concluded the day with slight gains, marking the continuation of their upward trajectory for three consecutive sessions. The gains were underpinned by persistent foreign fund inflows and a decrease in crude oil prices. The BSE Sensex advanced by 31.61 points, representing an increase of 0.04%, to close at 81,911.01. During the session, it reached an intraday high of 82,325.61 and a low of 81,576.15.
Meanwhile, the NSE Nifty 50 experienced an increase of 44.30 points, representing a rise of 0.18%, concluding the session at 25,299.35. Meanwhile, several equities are anticipated to attract attention during Friday’s trading session in light of company-specific announcements and corporate developments. Updates related to new order wins, quarterly business performance, expansion initiatives, and operational developments are likely to drive stock-specific movements and influence investor sentiment. Vodafone Idea, Ola Electric Mobility, IRCTC, Grasim Industries, and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles are among the shares attracting attention on Friday.
