D-St set for a negative opening as GIFT Nifty signals weak start

The Indian stock market snapped a five-session losing streak, with Sensex and Nifty ending in the deep green on Monday as easing tensions between Iran and the US, falling oil prices and other factors boosted market sentiment. Sensex ended 776 points higher at 76,836 while Nifty 50 gained over 228 points to 23,996 on Monday. The sharp gains added more than Rs 5 lakh crore to the total market capitalisation of all companies listed on BSE, pushing it up to Rs 481 lakh crore.
