The Indian stock market opened on a muted note on Friday, with both benchmark indices trading slightly lower. The BSE Sensex slipped 55.45 points, or 0.07 per cent, to open at 82,203.79, while the NSE Nifty declined 20.75 points, or 0.08 per cent, to begin the session at 25,090.70. Investors remain cautious amid mixed global cues and ahead of key corporate earnings announcements. Around 1,292 shares advanced, 950 declined, and 150 remained unchanged in early trade, indicating a mildly positive market breadth.
Among the top gainers on the Nifty were Jio Financial, Tata Steel, JSW Steel, L&T, and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories. On the other hand, Axis Bank, Bharti Airtel, SBI, Kotak Mahindra Bank, and SBI Life Insurance were among the key laggards.
