NEW DELHI: Key equity indices Sensex and Nifty registered a positive opening on Tuesday as sentiment got a boost from firm Asian cues and positive macro in terms of low trade deficit.
India’s trade deficit declined to a five-month low in September. RBI's decision to conduct open market purchase operations (OMOs) worth Rs 12,000 crore also influenced the sentient.
