Indian stock indices opened Wednesday's trade marginally higher as investors await retail inflation data for March (both for India and the US) later in the day.
The indices extended gains for the sixth session in a row, as the central bank made a surprise decision of keeping the repo rate unchanged to assess the effects of the policy rate tightening so far.
Indian stock indices extended their gains, though marginally, on Wednesday as investors at large are eyeing the outcome of the three-day Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy committee meeting -- the first in 2023-24 which started Monday.
Indian stocks rose marginally and started fresh with positive momentum, after experiencing losses during most part of the previous session. Today's marginal rise can be partly attributed to value buying by investors.
