Indian equity benchmarks are tracking for a positive open on Friday, with the Sensex and Nifty 50 poised to follow firm global market trends.

The Gift Nifty, a key pre-market indicator for Indian equities, is trading at a premium, signaling investor confidence ahead of the session.

Sentiment has improved following reports of easing tensions in the Middle East, which have reduced fears of a wider regional conflict.

This de-escalation has provided a tailwind for risk assets, complementing gains in semiconductor stocks that have bolstered global tech sentiment.

The positive outlook comes as investors digest the broader macro environment, with geopolitical stability remaining a key driver for emerging market equities.

The combination of reduced oil supply disruption risks and strong performance in US technology shares has created a supportive backdrop for Indian markets.
