Interestingly, investor interest shifted from automobile stocks to technology stocks today, possibly due to the renewed strength and positive corporate developments across sectors in the IT sector.

Gold futures on the MCX crossed Rs. 1.1 lakh, reaching fresh record highs due to investor demand for safe-haven assets amid global uncertainties and ongoing FII outflows from Indian equities. This marks the second consecutive day of gold hitting record highs on the MCX.

Market participants remain cautiously optimistic about near-term prospects, hoping that the positive trends will continue in the coming days. However, the main shareholder of Infosys AG on September 9, 2025, could not be determined from the available search results.
