Indian markets went through a hectic session on the first day of the June month as an assortment of reports popped through the day keeping investors in a dilemma and frontline indices in a sticky situation. On one hand, monthly auto sales and cement dispatches numbers kept the markets buzzing while on the other the HSBC PMI figures based on a survey of around 500 companies showed manufacturing activity in India in May slowing from a month earlier, yet output remained robust, reflecting the underlying strength in business conditions. Furthermore an official data released by the Ministry of Commerce showed that India's six core industries grew by 5.2% in April 2011 as compared to 7.4% in the previous month and 7.5% in the same month of last year. Another data released by the commerce ministry showed that India's trade deficit in April narrowed to $8.98 billion from $11.03 billion in the same period a year earlier, however, the trade deficit rose (month on month) to $8.98 billion in April from $5.6 billion in March. India's exports in April rose an annual 34% to $23.8 billion, while imports for the month rose 14% on the year to $32.8 billion, the official data stated.

At the close, Jet Airways, Kingfisher Airlines and Spice Jet gained in the range of 1-1.5%. According to the HSBC survey, strong expansion in new orders and output was also reflected in the purchasing activity, which quickened substantially during May, helping boost heavyweight stocks like L&T and Siemens which surged 2.33% and 1.83% respectively. However, inflationary pressures intensified as both input and output prices rose. Though, the sequential growth rate of input costs decelerated again, but the readings still remained elevated by historical standards. Better than expected sales number by Automobile companies like Maruti Suzuki, TVS Motor, Mahindra and Mahindra for the month of May boosted sentiment by easing fears that auto companies would not be able to maintain growth given the rising commodity prices and high interest rates. While rise in cement despatches of companies like ACC and Ambuja Cement helped the stocks spurt surge by 1.63% and 3.10% respectively. All stocks of the ADAG pack made their presence felt, particularly Reliance Communication and Reliance Capital which soared by 4.81% and 4.72% respectively.

On the global front, the Asian equity indices settled on a mixed note with the Taiwanese benchmark garnering around a percent point led by chip design house Mediatek after it announced a new tie-up with Yahoo while, smartphone maker HTC also ended higher amid investor optimism that it will add more market share after Nokia dropped key sales targets.

On the other hand, the screen trading for US index futures indicated that the Dow could open on a flat note.

Earlier on Dalal Street, the benchmark got off to a positive opening as sentiments got supported by reports that Germany might drop its demands for an early rescheduling of Greek bonds, paving the way for a deal that could prevent Greece from defaulting on its debt. After the positive opening the indices went on to test the 5,600 and 18,600 levels in the morning session but profit booking at higher levels pulled the benchmarks down. Thereafter the indices gyrated in a tight band through the afternoon session but buying gathered greater momentum in the late hours of trade and ensured that the frontline indices go around the day's high levels with around half a percent gains. Market breadth remained positive as there were 1795 shares on the gaining side against 1005 shares on the losing side while 149 shares remained unchanged.
