Sensex, Nifty Rise on Blue‑Chip Rally and FII Inflows
The two main Indian stock market indexes, Sensex and Nifty, went up on Thursday.
Big companies like Maruti Suzuki, Reliance, and HDFC Bank were especially strong.
Foreign investors bought a lot of shares, which helped the market.
Prices jumped and fell a lot during the day, but ended higher.
Global news about the U.S. interest rates and oil prices made some investors nervous, but the overall mood was positive.
Sensex gained 273.55 points to 77,928.15, Nifty up 66.95 points to 24,317.15.
Blue‑chip stocks such as Maruti Suzuki, Mahindra & Mahindra, Reliance Industries, State Bank of India, HDFC Bank, and Power Grid led the gains.
Foreign institutional investors bought ₹2,981.87 crore of Indian equities, boosting market sentiment.
The market swung sharply, hitting an intraday high of 78,007.09 and a low of 77,440.91.
Global factors – U.S. Fed stance, rising bond yields, West Asian tensions, and oil price volatility – added uncertainty but did not stop the rally.
