Stock market today: The Indian stock market is expected to open on a strong note on Tuesday following President Donald Trump’s announcement of an India–US trade deal.
Gift Nifty trends also point to a gap-up opening for domestic indices, with Gift Nifty trading near the 25,937 mark—about a 795-point premium over the previous close of Nifty futures.
“Indian markets are likely to open on a strong positive note today, supported by upbeat global cues following the announcement of a key India–US trade deal. The reduction in reciprocal tariffs on Indian goods to 18% from 25% has significantly lifted global risk sentiment, with GIFT Nifty indicating a sharp gap-up opening, nearly 3% higher overnight,” said Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money.
Trump said reciprocal tariffs on Indian goods would be cut to 18% from 25%, adding that India would lower its tariffs and non-tariff barriers on US goods to zero.
