(Updates for market open) Oct 7 (Reuters) – Indian benchmark shares opened a tad higher on Tuesday, as upbeat business updates from companies and the central bank's lending reforms supported sentiment. The Nifty 50 was up 0.03% at 25,085.3, while the BSE Sensex added 0.11% to 81,883.95, as of 9:15 a.m. IST. Fourteen of the 16 major sectors advanced at open, but the gains were modest. The broader mid-caps and small-caps were up 0.2% and 0.3%, respectively. The benchmark indexes have gained about 1.9% each in the last three sessions, led by financials, while IT stocks rose on Monday ahead of the firms' quarterly earnings that kick off this week.
