Market Performance

Reflecting on the market performance today, Bajaj Broking noted:

Indian benchmark indices ended the session on a strong note, supported by short covering from FII participants and a steady inflow of funds. The sentiment remained upbeat as Bank Nifty achieved a new milestone, driven by robust buying interest in leading banking stocks. At the close, the Sensex gained 484.53 points (0.58%) to settle at 83,952.19, while the Nifty advanced 124.55 points (0.49%) to close at 25,709.85. On the sectoral front, FMCG, Healthcare, Pharma, and Auto indices were the major contributors to the rally, showcasing defensive strength and rotation into quality counters. On the flip side, profit booking was witnessed in IT, Media, and Metal stocks, which capped the overall upside. The broader market, however, took a breather after a strong run-up, with Nifty Midcap 100 slipping 0.57% and Nifty Small-cap 100 marginally down by 0.05%, indicating selective profit taking by investors.
