There was a strong comeback by the FII, which had fled away after the higher surcharge. Moreover, the strategic disinvestment from PSU, along with the further hope of the stimulus package from the government added the sentimental boost among market participants.

Going ahead, the on-going Q2 result of the heavyweights would be the major driver for the benchmark. Moreover, the positive development in the US-China Trade talks & Brexit would provide addition clues globally.
