Indian markets are expected to open higher on Thursday, tracking firm global cues. Options data suggests a broader trading range of 24,200–25,100. FIIs turned net buyers after three days, while DIIs continued their buying streak. Experts recommend stocks like Swiggy, RVNL, OFSS, and JSW Energy for short-term gains. Nifty needs to hold above 24,700 to extend its uptrend.
