Defensive sectors and consumer staples led gains; meanwhile, tech stocks struggled.


Progress toward passing a funding bill in Congress helped lift market sentiment, with investors expecting the release of delayed economic data and an increased chance of a December Fed rate cut once the government reopens.

Oil dropped over 4% with OPEC and IEA highlighting a faster build-up of global inventories and soft demand outlook. U.S. production remains high, compounding bearish sentiment even as attacks on infrastructure failed to boost prices.


Gold surged past $4,180/oz, reaching near-record levels as traders eyed a possible Fed rate cut and safe-haven flows continued despite the risk-on tone in equities.


The Nifty extended its winning streak for the third consecutive session, rising 180 points to close at 25,875, supported by optimism over a potential trade deal with the United States.


By closing above 25,800, the Nifty has retraced over 61.8 percent of the entire decline from 26,100 to 25,318, confirming a bullish reversal after the recent correction.


The index now eyes resistance near the previous swing high of 26,100, and a breakout above this level could trigger a move toward fresh record highs beyond 26,277.


On the downside, immediate support has shifted higher to 25,715, forming a strong base for the ongoing rally.


Indian markets are poised to open mildly soft on the back of mixed global cues.
