 Indian shares opened higher in a trading session on Saturday, helped by a bounce in banking stocks after a three-day slide, while investors awaited earnings reports from large private lenders due later in the day.

The blue-chip Nifty 50 rose 0.34% to 21,695.2, while the S&P BSE Sensex advanced 0.31% to 71,905.84, as of 9:18 a.m. IST.

The equity market is trading in a full session on Saturday, and will remain shut on Monday due to a public holiday in Maharashtra state and as the central government observes a half-working day on the occasion of the Ram Temple's inauguration.
