From DMart to Sun Pharma, 10 stocks to watch out for today

As Thursday's trading session looms, the domestic equities are poised to be influenced by a combination of factors, including the Services PMI for March, weekly F&O expiry, and global market trends. Globally, Asian markets experienced gains, with the Nikkei and Kospi indices surging by 1.7 per cent and 1 per cent, respectively. Notably, markets in China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan remain closed for the day. In overnight trading, Wall Street indices closed with mixed results following comments by US Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell. Powell suggested that policymakers would require time to assess the current state of inflation, thereby keeping the timing of potential interest rate adjustments uncertain.
