“Indian shares opened higher Monday tracking the gains in Infosys, which surged 3 per cent after the company over the weekend said it has appointed Capgemini’s Salil Parekh as Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer effectively from Jan 8, 2018,” Dhruv Desai, Director and Chief Operating Officer of Tradebulls, told IANS.
“However, benchmark indices gave up some of their early gains as Reliance Industries, Larsen and Toubro and Sun Pharma came under selling pressure within minutes of opening trade,” he added.
On Friday, the benchmark indices were dragged lower by growing concerns over the country’s widening fiscal deficit, coupled with negative global cues and profit booking in auto, metal and oil and gas stocks.
The wider Nifty50 declined by 104.75 points or 1.02 per cent to close at 10,121.80 points, while the Sensex closed at 32,832.94 points — down 316.41 points or 0.95 per cent.
