Domestic Market:
The domestic equity indices soared on Monday, extending their gains from the previous session.

Investors were optimistic about the continuity of pro-business policies under the BJP-led government. Additionally, a reverse trade dynamic, triggered by sell-offs in Chinese stocks, further supported the Indian market's upward momentum.
