Markets rally amid firm trend in Asian peers, optimism around US-China trade talks
Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty began the trade on an optimistic note on Tuesday (June 10, 2025) in-tandem with a rally in Asian markets, optimism around US-China trade talks and foreign fund inflows.
The 30-share BSE Sensex climbed 235.58 points to 82,680.79 in early trade. The 50-share NSE Nifty went up by 96.1 points to 25,199.30.
From the Sensex firms, IndusInd Bank, Tech Mahindra, Infosys, UltraTech Cement, HCL Tech and NTPC were the biggest gainers.
Bajaj Finserv, Asian Paints, ICICI Bank, Eternal, HDFC Bank and Titan were among the laggards.
In Asian markets, South Korea's Kospi, Japan's Nikkei 225 index, Shanghai's SSE Composite index and Hong Kong's Hang Seng were trading in the positive territory.
US markets ended mostly higher on Monday.
Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) bought equities worth Rs 1,992.87 crore on Monday, according to exchange data.
"Nifty is likely to consolidate in the 24,500-25,500 range in the near-term. There are no short-term triggers to take the Nifty beyond the upper band. Some profit-booking pulling the market slightly down is likely. But ample liquidity will ensure that dips will get bought, helping the market to consolidate," VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited, said.
From the global perspective, market participants will be keenly following the progress of trade talks between the US and China, he added.
Global oil benchmark Brent crude climbed 0.28 per cent to USD 67.23 a barrel.

Pakistan COAS Asim Munir Invited To US Army Day Celebrations On June 14: Sources
Last Updated: During this visit, the US is likely to urge Pakistan to take action against terrorist groups targeting Afghanistan and India Pakistan's chief of army staff General Syed Asim Munir Ahmed Shah is scheduled to visit Washington DC, for the US Army Day celebrations on June 14, top intelligence sources have told CNN-News18. He will join other military leaders to commemorate the US Army's 250th anniversary. According to sources at the Pakistani Embassy in Washington DC, Munir is expected to arrive on June 12. During this visit, the US is likely to urge Pakistan to take action against terrorist groups targeting Afghanistan and India. The invitation appears to be linked more to the ongoing US-China rivalry and Pakistan's strategic importance than any stance against India. Due to Pakistan's close ties with China through initiatives like the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the US harbours concerns about Pakistan's neutrality. Given the current geopolitical climate, the US is unlikely to view Pakistan as a credible or neutral mediator, said sources. This visit has also provoked political reactions within Pakistan, with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) planning protests against Munir's visit and labelling him a criminal. Pakistan is expected to seek assurances from the US regarding the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) operating from Afghanistan. Historically, Pakistan has sought US mediation on various issues, while India firmly rejects third-party involvement. The US prefers bilateral dialogue and is unlikely to alter its stance in favour of mediation, sources said. Pakistan recognises the potential debt trap associated with China and is eager to attract investment from other global powers. The country possesses valuable resources such as lithium, copper, gold, and rare earth minerals, for which it urgently requires investment. However, Pakistan is wary of potential colonisation similar to China's approach. The visit aims to manage the strained security relationship between the US and Pakistan. Pakistan will likely pursue its agenda on mediation in Kashmir and seek investments in its mineral resources. However, tangible outcomes may be limited, as India is unlikely to accede to any external demands regarding Kashmir. First Published: June 11, 2025, 02:37 IST

Haryana CM praises PM's 'transformative leadership' over Congress-era's indecisiveness
Chandigarh, Jun 10 (UNI) Haryana Chief Minister, Nayab Singh Saini, addressing a press conference on the completion of 11 years of the Modi Government, praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership for "steering the nation from a time of indecision and inefficiency to an era of dynamic governance, national pride, and global recognition". He described the last 11 years as the most transformative phase of independent India, where each citizen has felt the presence of a decisive, sensitive, and effective government. "Today's India is led by Vision, Not Vote-Bank Politics," he said. Saini said, while the previous Congress-led governments were often marked by hesitation, weak decision-making and misplaced priorities, PM Modi gave India a clear vision, a strong direction, and an unwavering commitment to public welfare and nation-first governance. Before 2014, "the country was engulfed in an atmosphere of gloom and distrust. Corruption, and ineffective leadership had blocked our progress. Those days were ruled by fear, nepotism, regionalism, and corruption, there was a complete lack of fair governance. But under the PM Modi's leadership, India witnessed a decisive and transparent administration," said CM Saini. Saini said that when PM Modi assumed office in 2014, our economy ranked 11th worldwide. He highlighted how under PM's leadership India's economy rose from the 11th to being the fourth largest global economy. He said that India's total exports reached $825 billion in 2024-25. Engineering exports grew from $73 billion in 2014-15 to $117 billion in 2024-25. Besides this, Defence exports have risen 34‑fold since 2014, reaching Rs 23,622 crore in 2024-25, compared to just Rs 1,521 crore before 2016. In the past 10 fiscal years, India attracted around US $668 billion in FDI, up from US $323 billion during 2000-2014, said the Chief Minister. UNI GS RN

Trade talks with China ‘going really well', says US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick
US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that trade talks with China "are going really well" and hoped to wrap up the discussions by Tuesday night, but said that officials would be present in London on Wednesday if need be. American and Chinese officials are in the United Kingdom for the trade talks against the backdrop of the tariff war triggered US President Donald Trump's sweeping global levies. "I think the talks are going really, really well. We're very much spending time and effort and energy - everybody's got their head down working closely," Lutnick told reporters at Lancaster House in London. "I hope they end this evening, but if they need be, we'll be here tomorrow, but I hope they end this evening," he added. A Treasury official said that the teams, led by the US's Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, were still talking on Tuesday evening to finalise on technical details. The session could stretch into the night, the official also stated. Meanwhile, Lutnick's remarks about trade talks with China going well led to the US dollar gaining on Tuesday. Officials from the world's two largest economies were meeting in London to try to defuse a dispute that has gone from tariffs to restrictions over rare earths. Earlier on Monday, President Trump had also told reporters at the White House that "we are doing well with China. China's not easy". He added that he was "only getting good reports" from that day's talks. The US and China have been engaged in a trade war ever since Donald Trump announced sweeping global tariffs on multiple countries. As Washington slapped Beijing with 145 per cent tariffs on its goods, the latter was prompted to hit back with 125 per cent levies on American goods. On May 12, the two countries arrived at a 90-day deal to roll back some of the tit-for-tat tariffs they imposed on each other. However, the temporary halt did not address the wider issues that have strained the US-China ties. None of the issues starting from the illegal trade of fentanyl to the status of democratically-governed Taiwan to US's complaints about Beijing's dominant economic model were addressed.
