Indian markets extended gains, with the Sensex rising 0.45% and the Nifty 50 advancing 0.40%, supported by strong buying in consumer, defence, and metal stocks. Trent surged over 7% to lead the gainers, while Bharat Electronics and Hindalco also posted solid gains. Global cues remained mixed, with strength in Japan and China offset by weakness in Hong Kong.
