Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India]: In a week marked by uncertainty surrounding the global economy and escalating tensions in the Israel-Palestine conflict, the Indian stock market displayed resilience as indices experienced an upswing on Tuesday’s opening bell.

The opening bell brought good news for investors, with 45 Nifty companies advancing, while only 4 faced declines, and 1 remained unchanged.

Among the gainers were Adani Ports, Tata Motors, Hero Motocorp, M&M, and Adani Enterprises, providing a positive outlook for the day.

Conversely, Dr. Reddy, TCS, Cipla, Britannia, and Hindustan Unilever were among the top losers at the time of market opening.
