The quarterly earnings due to start this week provided markets a crucial leg-up today as the Sensex recouped 125 points and the Nifty topped 9,200 again amid a mixed Asian scenario. However, a sense of caution ahead of key economic data kept mood tempered. The NSE Nifty-50 index was trading higher by 27.35 points, or 0.29%, at 9,225.65. Traders said cautious investors lapped up select blue-chips ahead of key economic numbers -- industrial production (IIP) for February and consumer inflation for March are to be released on Wednesday. Hong Kong's Hang Seng was up 0.06% while Japan's Nikkei gained 0.65% in early trade today.
