Equity benchmark indices continued to lead last week on Monday. The Sensex and Nifty rose by more than one per cent. Such was possible due to strong purchases in banking and financial stocks amidst quarterly results.
Apart from this, the market was also strengthened by the arrival of foreign funds and the rupee strongly against the US dollar.
US Vice President J.K. D. Vance’s visit to India also led to the market expectations of agreement between the two countries.
The 30 -share BSE Sensex rose 855 points to close at 79 thousand 408, while NSE Nifty climbed 273 points to close at 24 thousand 125.
Tech Mahindra, IndusInd Bank, Power Grid Corporation, Bajaj Finserv and Mahindra & Mahindra were the highest in the Sensex pack. Adani Ports, ITC, Hindustan Unilever, Asian Paints and Nestle India were the most damaged.
