Summary

Economic Times reported that the Sensex rose 320 points and the Nifty crossed 25,100 during Muhurat trading, with Tata Steel and Sun Pharma among the top gainers. ET Now also listed the two among the top five Nifty 50 gainers. Livemint reported that Tata Steel led the gains, rising 2.5% after a 16% year-on-year increase in Q2 net profit, while Sun Pharma gained 1.5% for a fourth straight session. Livemint added that the Nifty 50 and Sensex moved between gains and losses during the session. Muhurat trading is a special one-hour session the exchanges hold on Diwali, and trades done then are settled as the first trades of the new Samvat year, the Hindu accounting year. Q2 means the July to September quarter, and year-on-year means compared with the same quarter last year. Net profit is what is left after all costs and tax.
