The Indian stock market experienced a positive session with both the Nifty 50 and Sensex gaining, driven by strong domestic factors and positive global cues. The Reserve Bank of India's decision to raise loan limits for small businesses provided a significant boost to banking and realty stocks, leading to robust sector performance. Additionally, a positive PMI report indicating rapid business activity growth further reinforced investor confidence. However, concerns over geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran loom, potentially impacting energy prices and market stability.
