Indian markets inch higher as earnings boost offsets weak global cues

On 6 November 2025, India’s benchmark indices edged higher with the Nifty 50 rising to 25,633 and the BSE Sensex to 83,680, helped by solid quarterly results from major firms and the inclusion of four Indian stocks into the MSCI Global Standard Index. While nine of 16 sectors showed gains, small‑cap and mid‑cap segments slipped modestly amid caution. Auto maker Mahindra & Mahindra and biscuit maker Britannia Industries outperformed, whereas Hindalco and Grasim Industries weighed on the market.
