Indian equity markets opened higher on Monday, with the benchmark Nifty 50 index rising 0.44% and the Sensex adding 360.85 points to trade at 77,163.75.
The positive start reflects a shift in investor sentiment as geopolitical risks appear to stabilize across the region.
The rally in India coincided with a sharp move in neighboring Pakistan, where the KSE-100 index surged more than 800 points in early trade, pushing the benchmark above the 179,765 level.

Renewed investor optimism drove the broader regional recovery, suggesting that risk appetite is returning to South Asian equities after a period of caution.
Traders are monitoring whether this momentum can sustain through the session, particularly as global cues remain mixed.
The synchronized rise in both Indian and Pakistani benchmarks indicates a potential bottoming out of regional selling pressure, though volume confirmation will be key to validating the trend.
