Indian stock market: On Tuesday, Indian stock market indices, including the Nifty 50 and the Sensex, reached new all-time highs. The Nifty 50 achieved a new all-time high of 24,443.60, while the Sensex reached a peak of 80,397.17 during the session. By the end of the day, the Nifty 50 closed at 24,433.20, marking an increase of 113 points or 0.46%. Meanwhile, the Sensex finished at 80,351.64, up by 391 points or 0.49%. Both indices concluded at their highest closing levels to date.
“Nifty remains positive throughout the session to close with handsome gains of 113 points at 24433 levels. Most sectors ended in green with buying seen in Auto, Consumer Durables, Pharma, and PSU Bank. PSU Banks witnessed fresh buying after the 10-Year bond yield fell to a 3-month low. After consolidating in the last few days, markets bounced back to make fresh high amid buying seen in index heavyweights. Markets tomorrow would react to US Fed Chair Powell’s speech. Overall we expect markets to trade with a positive bias and take cues from upcoming inflation data, Q1FY25 earnings, and budget. Pharma sector is likely to remain in focus over next few days on back comfortable valuation and expectation of healthy earning growth in Q1,” Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.
