Markets will resume trading on Monday

India's currency, debt and equity markets, including BSE and NSE, are closed today on account of Mahashivratri.

Markets will resume trading on Monday, March 11.

The blue-chip Nifty 50 closed up 0.09 per cent at 22,493.55 on Thursday, while the S&P BSE Sensex rose 0.05 per cent to 74,119.39, hitting fresh record highs and logging four straight week of gains, helped by financials and a strong economic outlook.

The Indian rupee strengthened 0.05 per cent versus the US dollar and quoted at 82.7850, after hitting a six-month high earlier in the session, as likely intervention from the central bank limited the currency's rise.

The benchmark 10-year bond was quoted at ₹101.01, with the yield down 2 bps at 7.0312 per cent, as US yields declined after commentary from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, while investors awaited a key US jobs data.
