The Indian stock market began this week on a muted note, with Sensex and Nifty closing almost unchanged from last week’s levels as strong Q1 earnings offset the impact of escalating Middle East worries.
Sensex rose over 43 points to close at 78,542, while Nifty 50 gained around 13 points to end the session at 24,584 on Monday. Broader markets ended mixed, with Nifty Smallcap 100 falling 0.3% while Nifty Midcap 100 rising 0.6%.
