Stocks To Watch on 6 September: Indian equity benchmark indices settled higher for the third consecutive day on Tuesday on the back of gains in index heavyweights Reliance Industries, ITC and Infosys amid a bearish trend in global markets. In addition, encouraging domestic macroeconomic data added to the positive momentum.
The BSE Sensex jumped 152.12 points or 0.23 per cent to close at 65,780.26. The NSE Nifty climbed 46.10 points or 0.24 per cent to settle at 19,574.90.
"Strong domestic factors are providing crucial support for Indian equities, allowing them to maintain their strength despite attempts by weak global peers to disrupt the mood. India's service PMI remains robust at 60.1, indicating sustained demand even in the face of inflationary pressures," said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services.

"Notably, small and mid-cap stocks have been standout performers, with both indices reaching all-time highs. Conversely, the weak Chinese service PMI has cast a shadow on hopes of an economic rebound in China, impacting global market sentiments,” he added.
