Nifty 50, Sensex today: What to expect from Indian stock market in trade on June 3
The Indian stock market benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are likely to open higher amid upbeat global market cues, even as sentiment remains cautious.
The trends on Gift Nifty also indicate a positive start for the Indian benchmark index. The Gift Nifty was trading around 24,859 level, a premium of nearly 33 points from the Nifty futures' previous close.
On Monday, the domestic equity market ended marginally lower amid volatility, staging a recovery from early declines.
The Sensex declined 77.26 points, or 0.09%, to close at 81,373.75, while the Nifty 50 settled 34.10 points, or 0.14%, lower at 24,716.60.
Here's what to expect from Sensex, Nifty 50 and Bank Nifty today:
Sensex dropped 77 points and closed at 81,373.75 on Monday, taking support near 80,600 level during the day.
'We are of the view that, the current market texture is non directional hence level based trading would be the ideal strategy for day traders, 81,100 and the 20-day SMA or 81,300 would act as key support levels. Above these levels, the Sensex could move up to 81,600 - 81,800. On the flip side, below 81,100, selling pressure is likely to accelerate. If Sensex falls below this level, it could correct up to 80,600 - 80,400,' said Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities.
Nifty 50 showed signs of upside recovery from the lower levels on June 2 and closed the day lower by 34 points.
'A small positive candle was formed on the daily chart with a long lower shadow. This market action indicates a formation of bullish hammer type candle pattern (not a classical one) at the support of 20-day EMA after a fall of few sessions. The underlying trend of Nifty 50 remains choppy with weak bias,' said Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities.
Having shown upside recovery from the higher lows on Monday, the Nifty 50 is expected to show a short term upside bounce towards 24,900 in the next few sessions. Immediate support is at 24,500, he added.
Hrishikesh Yedve, AVP Technical and Derivative Research, Asit C. Mehta Investment Interrmediates Ltd. noted that the Nifty 50 formed a hammer candlestick on the daily chart, suggesting potential strength.
'Immediate support for the index is placed near its 21-Day EMA, which is around 24,620, followed by 24,500. On the upside, the index might face strong resistance near the 25,000 – 25,100 zone,' Yedve said.
VLA Ambala, Co-Founder of Stock Market Today expects Nifty 50 index to remain in a small range for the next two to three days, as there are no significant news events or triggers.
'Nifty 50 is trading near its 20-day EMA, which is acting as an immediate support level for swing traders. Based on these developments, we can expect Nifty 50 to trade within a range of 25,000 to 24,300 this entire week. We can also expect Nifty 50 to gain support between 24,550 and 24,480 and face resistance near 24,800 and 24,870 in today's intraday trading session,' Ambala said.
Bank Nifty index ended 153.70 points, or 0.28%, higher at 55,903.40 on Monday, extending gains for the fourth session in a row.
'Bank Nifty index has formed a small bull candle with a higher high and higher low, signaling consolidation with positive bias. The index is currently placed at the upper band of the last 5 weeks consolidation range placed around 55,800 - 56,000 levels. Going ahead, a move and a close above 56,000 levels will signal acceleration of the up move towards 56,700 levels in the coming sessions,' Bajaj Broking Research said in a note.
According to broking firm, the bias remain positive and dips should be used as a buying opportunity with immediate support placed at 55,000 - 55,200 levels while the key short-term support is seen at 54,000 - 53,500 being the confluence of key retracement and 50 days EMA and the lower band of the last 5 weeks consolidation range.
Hrishikesh Yedve said that the Bank Nifty index formed a green candle on the daily charts, indicating bullish undertone.
'On the upside, immediate resistance is seen near the 56,100, and a firm breakout above this level could extend gains towards 57,000 – 57,500. On the downside, the 21-DEMA placed near 55,060, will act as strong support. As long as the index holds above this level, a 'buy on dips' strategy is advisable for Bank Nifty,' Yedve said.

Trump signs order to double steel, aluminium import tariffs to 50%
New Delhi: A 50% tariff on steel and aluminium imports into the United States went into effect on Wednesday, doubling the previous rate as President Donald Trump cited national security concerns for the dramatic escalation in trade protections. The new tariff rates, increased from an earlier 25% rate, were announced by Trump in a statement on Tuesday. The president claimed legal authority to impose the tariffs through Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, which allows the president to address national security risks arising from imports. 'In my judgement, the increased tariffs will more effectively counter foreign countries that continue to offload low-priced, excess steel and aluminium in the United States market and thereby undercut the competitiveness of the United States steel and aluminium industries,' read Trump's statement released by the White House. Trump said the earlier 25% tariff rates, first announced in February and implemented on March 12, had helped America's steel industry but had not enabled companies to maintain the capacity needed to meet national defence needs. 'I have determined that increasing the previously imposed tariffs will provide greater support to these industries and reduce or eliminate the national security threat posed by imports of steel and aluminium articles and their derivative articles,' Trump said. The tariff increase comes amid broader trade disputes at the World Trade Organisation. Several countries, including India, have formally challenged the US measures, characterising them as 'safeguard measures' that violate WTO rules and threaten retaliatory action. In May, India formally notified the WTO that it viewed America's tariffs on steel and aluminium as safeguard measures and indicated it could suspend 'concessions and other obligations' given to the US and that it retains the right to enforce retaliatory measures. On May 22, America rejected India's characterisation of the tariffs as safeguard measures and refused to engage in talks on the matter. The introduction of tariffs has proven controversial within the US. The America Iron and Steel Institute, an industry group, has welcomed the increased tariffs as a necessary measure to protect domestic producers from cheaper foreign competition. However, manufacturers using steel as input for production have publicly raised concerns that more expensive steel will impact competitiveness across other domestic industries. For India specifically, the consequences are direct and substantial. According to the Global Trade Research Institute (GTRI), a New Delhi-based research group, India exported $4.56 billion worth of iron, steel, and aluminium products to the US in FY2025, with key categories including $587.5 million in iron and steel, $3.1 billion in articles of iron or steel, and $860 million in aluminium and related articles. 'These exports are now exposed to sharply higher US tariffs, threatening the profitability of Indian producers and exporters,' the GTRI said in a brief.

After US, Amul launches milk in Spain, EU
Vadodara: After making waves in the United States, home-grown dairy giant Amul has now stepped into Europe, launching its fresh milk products in Spain and the European Union (EU). The Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Limited (Amul Fed) announced a strategic partnership with Spain's premier dairy cooperative, Cooperativa Ganadera del Valle de los Pedroches (COVAP), to bring Amul milk to European shelves. The official launch ceremony was held at the Indian Embassy in Madrid and was attended by dignitaries including Dinesh K Patnaik, India's ambassador to Spain; D Fernando Heredia Noguera, deputy director for International Relations and Community Affairs at the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food; Ricardo Delgado Vizcaíno, president of COVAP and senior executives from Amul. Initially, Amul milk will be available in Madrid and Barcelona, with plans to expand soon to Malaga, Valencia, Alicante, Seville, Córdoba, and even Lisbon in neighbouring Portugal. Looking ahead, Amul aims to spread its presence to Germany, Italy, Switzerland, and beyond. Jayen Mehta, managing director of GCMMF, expressed pride in the collaboration: "Partnering with COVAP, a respected Spanish dairy cooperative, allows us to nourish Spanish consumers with the goodness of Amul milk. This is the first time Amul fresh milk is being launched in Europe and it aligns with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision to make Amul a truly global dairy brand." Marking the United Nations' International Year of Cooperatives in 2025, Mehta added, "We are confident that Amul will connect with Indians worldwide and showcase the power of cooperation between dairy cooperatives." Ricardo Delgado Vizcaíno highlighted the mutual benefits: "This partnership helps both COVAP's farmer-members and Indian dairy farmers grow their brands, combining COVAP's technology and high-quality milk with Amul's renowned global reputation." Founded in 1959 in Córdoba, COVAP is a key player in Andalusia's agri-food sector with over 2,000 farmer-members. Its state-of-the-art dairy plant processes more than 400 million litres of milk annually and exports to over 30 countries, including the US, UK, and Asia. Amul, the world's largest farmer-owned dairy cooperative, processes over 12 billion litres of milk annually. With a brand turnover exceeding $11 billion, Amul ranks as the eighth-largest milk processor globally, operating 112 dairy plants across India and handling 42 million litres of milk per day.

Profit takes a backseat for birds at this adventure park
Vadodara: It all started with a flutter of feathers on a 50-foot bungee platform. A few summers ago, Bandish Shah, a Vadodara-based businessman and nature enthusiast, spotted an Indian pitta — a small, vibrantly colored bird — nesting atop a popular ride in the adventure zone of his resort in Dabhoi. Most people would've ignored it. But Shah did something unexpected: he shut the ride down. "The adventure zone was bustling during the summer holidays, but I couldn't let thrill rides endanger nesting birds," recalls Shah. That one incident changed everything. Soon, he discovered that this wasn't a one-time occurrence. The dense green canopy surrounding the adventure zone had become a seasonal refuge for several birds — from Indian pittas and Asian paradise flycatchers to fork-tailed drongos and orange-headed thrushes. Many of these species, including migratory ones, return year after year to nest during summer — coinciding with the peak tourist season. Faced with a choice between ecology and economy, Shah chose the birds. Since then, he has made it a rule: if a bird nests too close to any ride, that activity is shut down — regardless of footfall or profits. "If hundreds of visitors use the rides daily, it disturbs the birds. And they may never return," Shah told TOI.

The decision comes at a cost. Shah estimates that he loses lakhs of rupees annually by keeping the adventure zone partially or fully closed during nesting periods. Yet, he remains unfazed. "I am a nature enthusiast. Disturbing other living beings for entertainment is the last thing I'd want. Revenue can be recovered. Lost wildlife, once gone, doesn't return," he says. It isn't just the rides that have been adjusted. Once echoing with loud DJ music, the zone now embraces silence. All artificial lights are turned off at night. The goal: create a space where birds feel safe — not threatened — by human presence. Shah's resort, spread across 120 acres, is a green sanctuary by design. Only 10% of the land has construction — mostly using natural materials. The rest is a vibrant forest of native trees, nurtured over the past 15 years as part of his eco-tourism vision. Today, the area hosts over 155 species of birds, some of which return annually to breed. "We also plant thousands of indigenous saplings every year in and around the property," Shah adds. "It's about long-term conservation, not short-term gain."
