Indian shares edge up as Axis Bank and Kotak Mahindra Bank rise on quarterly updates
Indian equities opened slightly higher, extending a rebound led by banks after positive quarterly loan and deposit growth updates from Axis Bank and Kotak Mahindra Bank. Broader risk tone was supported by lower oil prices and softer U.S. jobs data, which eased fears of aggressive Fed tightening, while focus turns to an upcoming central bank policy decision. The move appears incremental rather than trend-defining.
