The Indian markets ended on a positive note, driven by optimism surrounding a potential US-Iran peace deal, which has alleviated geopolitical tensions. This development has led to a decline in oil prices, benefiting oil-dependent sectors by reducing import costs. The banking sector also saw gains due to improved sentiment and the potential for stable borrowing costs, influenced by the Reserve Bank of India's focus on inflation over currency defense. Additionally, the market breadth was positive with more advances than declines, indicating overall investor confidence.
