The Indian benchmark indices rose modestly, tracking firm Asian cues after minutes from the Federal Reserve's most recent meeting didn't provide any indication that an interest rate hike is imminent. Adding to investor about global growth, a preliminary HSBC survey showed that its China manufacturing PMI Index rose to 49.7 in May, a five-month high, compared with a final reading of 48.1 in April. The Indian rupee opened higher at 58.60 per dollar on hopes of continued foreign fund flows.
