Data timestamps: Indian-equity figures are the latest completed NSE cash-market close (2 November 2026). MCX commodity indications were checked at 10:46 IST on 3 November. Binance crypto 24-hour figures were retrieved at 12:15 IST on 3 November. Prices can change after publication.
Market overview
India’s benchmark equities ended the previous cash-market session firmly higher. The Nifty 50 closed at 23,440.80, up 387.70 points (1.68%), while the Sensex ended at 75,692.78, up 1,233.25 points (1.66%). Bank Nifty closed at 55,002.20, a gain of 0.58%.
Because Indian cash-market levels move during the day, this article intentionally uses the latest completed close for the equity section rather than mixing it with an unverified intraday reading.
Commodities: gold, silver and crude move in different directions
The commodity picture was mixed in the available MCX-linked update at 10:46 IST. Gold was quoted at ₹1,39,200 per 10 grams, down 0.70% from its referenced close. Silver was at ₹1,79,516 per kg, down 2.32%. MCX crude oil was at ₹9,214 per barrel, up 1.57%.
The contrast is worth noting, but it is not a forecast. Commodity futures are affected by global benchmarks, the rupee, contract specifications, liquidity, and changing supply-and-demand expectations. A single intraday move does not explain the full direction of a commodity over a longer period.
Crypto: 24-hour snapshot from Binance
Binance’s rolling 24-hour ticker showed softer prices across the three widely followed digital assets below. These are continuous-market figures, so they are not directly comparable with the fixed Indian-equity closing levels above.
| Asset | Last price (USDT) | 24-hour change | 24-hour range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bitcoin (BTC) | $76,680.92 | -1.89% | $76,388.88–$78,405.66 |
| Ethereum (ETH) | $2,250.00 | -1.47% | $2,237.38–$2,304.72 |
| Solana (SOL) | $91.75 | -2.61% | $90.87–$94.98 |
The ticker window ended at 12:15 IST on 3 November. Digital-asset markets trade around the clock and may move materially after the time shown.
How to read this cross-market snapshot
The three sections use different kinds of reference points: the verified completed NSE close, intraday commodity indications, and rolling 24-hour crypto changes. Keeping those timestamps separate makes the comparison more useful and helps avoid presenting changing data as a single synchronized price board.
For readers following the next session, practical context can include corporate disclosures, global commodity moves, currency changes and exchange notices. These are variables to monitor, not signals or recommendations.
