While headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rose to 2.3% year-on-year in June, compared to 2.2% in May, core inflation print that excludes both fresh food and energy prices, grew to 1.8% in June from 1.7% in May.

Domestic Markets: Domestic equity barometers stocks notched gains for a fourth day on Thursday, capping a volatile session fueled by monthly derivatives expiry. The Nifty50 index climbed above 24,000, shrugging off early weakness. IT, oil & gas, and auto stocks led the advance, reflecting optimism around specific sectors. However, broader market participation remained subdued due to valuation worries and foreign investor selling amid rising US yields. The global market picture offered little direction, with caution prevailing ahead of crucial US economic data releases that could influence future interest rate decisions. The barometer index, the S&P BSE Sensex, was up 568.93 points or 0.72% to 79,243.18. The Nifty 50 index gained 175.70 points or 0.74% to 24,044.50. Both the indices hit record closing high levels.
