Anand Rathi Recommends Three Stocks to Buy Today — April 30

The Indian stock market saw a positive trend today, following the strong performance of the US markets. This was fueled by improved investor sentiment due to easing tensions in the Middle East and a decline in oil prices. Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services, noted that the Bank Nifty stood out domestically, thanks to its impressive fourth-quarter performance. It’s expected that steady profits and reduced tensions in the Middle East will keep the market upbeat. However, the overall market dynamics will depend on factors like US non-farm payroll statistics and FED policy.

The BSE Sensex closed at 74,671.28 points, up 941.12 points, or 1.28%, while the NSE Nifty 50 ended at 22,643.40 points, up 223.45 points, or 1%.
