Pre-market: Positive Asian cues to push Indian markets higher: 30.07.2014

The BSE’s 30-share bellwether index- Sensex is likely to open in green on Wednesday tracking positive trend in most of the Asian markets. Investors may further seek optimism from positive quarterly numbers posted by two index heavyweights L&T and ITC in the last trading session. While L&T’s net profit nearly doubles to Rs 966.89 crore in April-June quarter, ITC posted over 15 per cent growth in its net profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
