Adani group stocks and autos like Maruti drove broader gains, with mentions of surges up to 4%. Specific losers were less highlighted, but telecom and some banks lagged amid volatility.
Driving Factors
Markets opened strong with Sensex rallying over 500-700 points and Nifty topping 24,100, fueled by crude oil dipping below $110 for a second session. US President Donald Trump’s signals on aiding ships in the Strait of Hormuz eased oil worries, boosting sentiment. State election counting in West Bengal added short-term focus, though global mixed cues like Asian gains and European dips persisted.
Outlook
Experts note range-bound trading ahead, with Nifty support at 23,800-24,000 and resistance near 24,350, amid oil volatility and FII selling pressures. Turnover hit high levels, reflecting optimism despite geopolitical risks. Investors eye Q4 results and US-Iran developments for cues.
