India’s benchmark Nifty 50 index began the pre-open trading session with a gain of 0.17%, reflecting cautious optimism among investors amid positive global cues and upcoming corporate results. The market is set for a potentially steady session with focus on IT, banking, and pharma stocks.
In pre-market trading on November 11, 2025, the Nifty 50 index opened 0.17% higher, signaling a positive start to the day. This follows a firm close in the previous session where Nifty gained around 0.32%, bolstered by strong performances in sectors like IT, pharmaceuticals, metals, and banking.
The market sentiment is buoyed by progress towards resolving the US government shutdown, which has lifted global risk appetite and supported Indian equities. Foreign institutional investors have recently returned as buyers, adding confidence.
Key support levels for the Nifty remain around 25,300, with resistance at 25,700–25,800, suggesting a consolidation phase ahead. Stocks such as Infosys, HCL Technologies, Bajaj Finance, and Wipro lead sector gains, while realty and FMCG sectors witnessed some weakness.
Investors are advised to focus on stock-specific opportunities and monitor macroeconomic data scheduled later this week, including CPI and industrial production figures, for further market direction.
