Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 22 (ANI): Key indices of domestic equity markets surged on Wednesday morning, tracking strong cues from other Asian markets.
Broad-based rally swept across markets, IT index advanced 1 per cent while Nifty Bank surged 121.60 points or 0.30 per cent to 40,016.30. Heavyweights like Reliance Industries, Tata Motors and Adani Enterprises also gained during the morning.
For fresh cues, market participants will keenly watch out for the next US Federal Reserve monetary policy outcome and forward-looking guidance, if any. With the jitters coming from the banking sector's turmoil, arising from Silicon Valley Bank and Credit Suisse, the investors expect that the Federal Reserve would stick with an increase 0.25 points or 25 basis points.

Asian markets surged on Wednesday, following an overnight rally on Wall Street ahead of the Fed's rate hike decision later in the day, with concerns of the global banking crisis taking the back seat. According to The Wall Street Journal, home prices in the US fell in February for the first time in 11 years, showing the effects of the Federal Reserve's campaign to raise interest rates.
