The Nifty 50 index, as per futures, is expected to open with a 1000-point surge for the first time.

Following a trade agreement between India and the United States that allayed worries about tariffs and capital outflows, offshore trading indicated a notable recovery, and the Indian rupee is expected to open significantly higher on Tuesday, February 3.

KEC Intl bags multiple orders worth ₹1,020 cr across various businesses

US President Donald Trump announced on Monday (February 2) that India and the US have reached a trade agreement wherein Washington will reduce the reciprocal tariff on Indian exports to 18% from the current 50%. The development followed a phone call between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Trump.

Early trading on Tuesday, February 3, saw a resurgence in gold, which had been down during the previous several sessions. However, experts at SAMCO Securities suggest the move should be viewed as part of a larger consolidation phase rather than a clear shift in trend.

 

India and the United States have announced a breakthrough trade deal, with comprehensive documentation and a formal signature coming within days, sources close to the discussions told CNBC-TV18.
