The Indian market was up with healthy gains, mirroring trends of other Asian peers.
Most Asian stocks gained on Monday, extending the rally that took global equities to a record high after a US jobs report signalled the economic recovery remained intact but didn’t yet warrant any immediate withdrawal of Federal Reserve stimulus, reported Reuters.

“The Nifty took good support at the 15,600-15,650 level in the previous session on July 2. This morning we have bounced from there and can scale to 16,100 only if we get past 15,900 on a closing basis,” said Manish Hathiramani, Proprietary Index Trader and Technical Analyst, Deen Dayal Investments.
“The markets are still range-bound between 15,400 and 15,900 and until we do not get past one of these levels, we will not witness a meaningful move. However, the bias remains on the upside,” said Hathiramani.
