Most of the major Nifty sub-indexes settled higher, with the metal, private bank and bank indexes among the top performers, rising between 1% and 1.7%. In the broader market, the BSE smallcap gauge climbed 0.89% and the midcap index gained 0.46%.

Day trading guide for stock market today

"Nifty continues to outperform its global peers on the back of strong macro data, upcoming festive season and FIIs inflows. Mid and smallcaps continue to remain in momentum. Going forward, Nifty is likely to continue trading sideways in the absence of any major events domestically. Globally, nine central banks would meet this week for their policy announcement while the new UK Prime Minister would also be announced, which could drive the global markets in the near term," said Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal.
