On the 30-share Sensex platform, PowerGrid, Tata Motors, TCS, HCL Tech, and Maruti emerged gainers. On the flip side, Asian Paints, M&M, Tata Steel, JSW Steel, and Adani Ports stood among the laggards.

In the broader markets, the Nifty Next 50 soared ahead and traded 0.80 per cent higher. Meanwhile, the Nifty Microcap 250  declined 0.44 per cent in the day.

Sectoral update

Amongst the sectors, the Nifty Metal and Media indices traded in red at 0.50 per cent and 0.42 per cent respectively. On the other hand, the IT index jumped 1.45 per cent in the morning session.

Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) dumped Indian equities worth Rs 3,404.04 crore on Friday, according to exchange data.

Global oil benchmark Brent crude slumped 0.42 per cent to $73.56 a barrel. In the last trading session on Friday, the Sensex dipped 55.47 points or 0.07 per cent to close at 79,486.32, while the Nifty declined a little over 50 points to settle at 24,148.20.

V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services, noted, "The sustained rally in the US markets which have taken the Dow and S&P 500 above 40,000 and 6,000 respectively is no longer a tailwind for Indian markets. In India, in contrast, worse-than-expected earnings downgrades for FY25 are weighing on stock prices favouring the bears in the near-term."

Forex traders noted that equity market is expected to be volatile in the short-term and consolidation is likely to continue in the near-term with a weak bias.
