India's equities rose 236 points, or 0.3%, to 74,278 in early deals on Thursday, breaking a four-session losing streak. The rally was boosted by gains in the banking sector, financial services, oil & gas, and consumer goods. The BSE Sensex mirrored a rise on Wall Street Wednesday, as concerns about a U.S. economic slowdown eased after fresh data showed inflation slowing more than expected and a rebound in tech stocks. Domestic data also lifted sentiment, as retail inflation eased more than anticipated, falling below the RBI's target range for the first time in six months, raising hopes for interest rate cuts. Additionally, industrial output grew more than expected in January. The Nifty 50 climbed 0.3%, surpassing 22,500, with notable gains from Tata Steel (1.1%), ICICI Bank (0.6%), State Bank of India (0.6%), NTPC (0.5%), and Power Grid (0.5%).
