The Indian stock market traded in the green on Friday, with BSE Sensex rising more than 300 points during intraday trade. Although the index slipped slightly from its day’s high, overall market sentiment remained optimistic. Meanwhile, Nifty 50 hovered near the crucial 23,800 mark, reflecting steady buying interest across major sectors.

Information Technology and FMCG stocks emerged as the top performers of the session. Leading IT companies gained momentum after positive global tech cues, while FMCG shares attracted investors due to expectations of stable consumer demand and resilient earnings growth. The rally in these sectors helped offset mild volatility seen in banking and metal stocks.

Market experts believe that investors are gradually returning to equities after recent fluctuations. Improved global sentiment, stable crude oil prices, and selective foreign institutional buying supported the upward move in Indian markets. Analysts also noted that traders are closely watching upcoming economic data and global market trends for further direction.

Several heavyweight stocks remained in positive territory throughout the session, contributing to the market’s overall strength. Investors are now hoping the current momentum will continue if global markets remain supportive and domestic economic indicators stay stable in the coming weeks.
