Indian equity markets are set to begin the week on a positive note after benchmark indices staged a strong recovery in the previous session, supported by improving global sentiment and easing geopolitical concerns. Investors will closely track international developments, corporate news flow and global market trends as trading resumes on June 15.
Domestic markets ended sharply higher on Friday, reversing losses accumulated earlier in the week. The NSE Nifty 50 surged 461.30 points, or 1.99 per cent, to close at 23,622.90, while the BSE Sensex advanced 1,695.40 points, or 2.30 per cent, to settle at 75,527.95. The strong rally helped both indices finish the week in positive territory after facing pressure between Monday and Thursday.
Market sentiment improved significantly following optimism surrounding a potential diplomatic breakthrough between the United States and Iran. The prospect of reduced geopolitical tensions boosted risk appetite across global markets and encouraged buying in equities. The easing of concerns over energy supplies and trade disruptions also contributed to the rebound in investor confidence.

Investors will continue to monitor developments related to the reported US-Iran agreement, as any further clarity could influence global commodity prices, currency movements and broader market sentiment. Sectors sensitive to crude oil prices, including oil marketing companies, aviation and logistics firms, may remain in focus depending on how the situation evolves.
In the United States, market performance was mixed at the start of the latest trading session. The technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.2 per cent to 25,764.8 despite strong interest surrounding the listing of SpaceX, the aerospace company led by Elon Musk. Reports indicated that the company's record $75-billion initial public offering was oversubscribed four times, drawing significant attention from investors.
For Indian markets, traders will keep an eye on global cues, foreign institutional investor activity, commodity prices and sector-specific developments. With benchmark indices having regained momentum, market participants will be watching whether the recent rally can be sustained and translate into further gains during the week ahead.
