Mumbai, July 31: Indian equity indices started Wednesday on a positive note, buoyed by positive signals from Asian markets. As of 9:41 a.m., the Sensex rose by 82 points or 0.10% to reach 81,542, while the Nifty gained 30 points or 0.12% to stand at 24,887.

The overall market sentiment remained optimistic with 1,507 stocks advancing on the National Stock Exchange (NSE), contrasting with 480 stocks in decline.

The Nifty Midcap 100 index registered an increase of 169 points or 0.29%, reaching 58,792, whereas the Nifty Smallcap 100 index declined by 60 points or 0.31%, settling at 19,146.
