The Indian stock market today (September 25, 2026) rebounded from recent intraday volatility, wrapping up the trading session in positive territory. Heavyweight private banking stocks and select index leaders led the recovery, helping benchmarks absorb pressures from high global bond yields and volatile crude oil prices.
The BSE Sensex advanced 315.20 points (0.43%) to settle at 73,895.74, while the NSE Nifty 50 gained 77.40 points (0.34%) to close at 23,140.50.
Market Summary & Key Highlights
- Sector Performance: Nifty Realty and Nifty Auto were among the top performing sectors, providing critical momentum to the benchmarks. In contrast, Nifty IT and Nifty Pharma remained under selling pressure due to elevated international bond yields.

- Institutional Activity: Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) remained net sellers, offloading ₹5,027 crore in cash trades. However, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) counterbalanced the foreign outflows by purchasing ₹4,301 crore worth of equities.
