Indian stock markets witnessed a strong recovery with the Sensex rising 427 points and the Nifty crossing the 25,850 mark. The rebound came after three consecutive days of declines as investors responded positively to improved global cues and renewed buying interest in key sectors. The market sentiment was boosted by a recent interest rate cut in the United States which lifted risk appetite and encouraged investors to reenter equities.
The rally was broad based with banking, auto and metal stocks leading the gains. Major financial stocks such as Kotak Mahindra Bank and Eternal recorded increases of around two percent each contributing significantly to the overall positive momentum. Traders noted that these gains helped the benchmark indices recover ground despite pressure from external factors including a weaker rupee.
Midcap and smallcap stocks also participated in the upside indicating growing confidence among investors that the markets could stabilise after the recent volatility. Overall market breadth improved with a larger number of stocks advancing compared with those declining on the National Stock Exchange.
Despite the positive session some challenges remain. The Indian rupee has weakened against the U.S. dollar and there is continued uncertainty surrounding global trade discussions. Investors are advised to remain cautious while monitoring economic data and corporate earnings in the coming weeks.
