In a reflection of upbeat global sentiments, Indian equity indices surged in early trade, with the 30-share BSE Sensex rising 414.06 points to 64,494.96 and the Nifty climbing 125.5 points to 19,258.75. Tata Motors led the gainers, reporting a robust consolidated net profit of Rs 3,783 crore for Q2. Other major contributors included Tech Mahindra, ICICI Bank, Titan, Mahindra & Mahindra, and Sun Pharma. However, Tata Steel, NTPC, Asian Paints, and Kotak Mahindra Bank witnessed declines.
