Reuters Markete Eye - Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd gains 2.8 percent after its unit Taro Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd operational earnings beat some analysts estimates.

Taro's quarterly earnings per share came at $2.15 while sales rose 27.5 percent to $205.3 million.

Analysts say a price hike in certain product categories by Taro led to the operating earnings beat while also boosting outlook for Sun Pharmaceutical's earnings results later in the day.
