Stock markets surge in early trade; Sensex jumps 546 points
Indian stock markets experienced a significant surge in early trading, driven by gains in IT stocks and positive sentiment following U.S. jobs data. Analysts suggest that lower crude oil prices and reduced foreign institutional outflows are providing strong macroeconomic support for the rally.

The report relies on market data and expert commentary from financial analysts to explain the movement.
