BENGALURU - Financials and automakers led India's blue-chip stock indexes higher on Tuesday, taking cues from a tech-led rally on Wall Street as investors drew support from lower oil prices and with Ukraine and Russia headed for peace talks.
The NSE Nifty 50 index was up 0.43% at 17,296.75, as of 0350 GMT, while the S&P BSE Sensex rose 0.46% to 57,860.32.
The Nifty Financial Services index rose as much as 0.8%, lifted by mortgage lender HDFC Ltd, while a 1.2% jump in top carmaker Maruti Suzuki boosted the Nifty Auto index by 0.9%.
