Indian stock markets may see a strong up move this week amid results presenting a good show by the BJP in state assembly elections, experts said.
The results of the four state elections held recently will be a major trigger for the Indian stock markets in the near-term, they added.

Besides, on the macro front, the industrial production data for October and Consumer Price Index (CPI) for November, key figures ahead of the RBI's December 18 policy review, would be announced on Thursday.
"Markets would open higher on Monday. Investor sentiment is at present positive. However, profit-booking may also happen at higher levels. People are at large looking for a Gujarat like model of government and growth in the country.
