The Indian share market is seen opening higher on the final day of the week, tracking positive cues from global peers and firm trends in GIFT Nifty futures. At 7:55 AM, the GIFT Nifty index was up 102 points, or 0.41%, at 25,182, indicating a gap-up start for the benchmark indices, the BSE Sensex and the NSE Nifty.

On Thursday, the Sensex rallied 1,200.18 points, or 1.48%, to close at 82,530.74, while the Nifty50 surged 395.20 points, or 1.60%, to settle at 25,062.10. The rally in the market was triggered by U.S. President Donald Trump’s comment that India had offered to reduce tariffs on U.S. goods, easing trade tensions between the two countries.

Among the BSE Sensex pack, barring IndusInd Bank, all 29 other constituents ended in positive territory. The top five gainers on the Sensex were Tata Motors (4.2%), HCLTech (3.6%), Adani Ports (2.6%), Eternal (2.4%), and Maruti Suzuki India (2.2%). IndusInd Bank shares ended marginally lower by 0.16%.
