Stock Market Today: Indian Stock Markets saw a strong rally on Tuesday as the benchmark Nifty-50 index and the S&P BSE Sensex rose to end at 23,739.25 and 78,583.81, respectively, a rise of 1.62-1.81%. The Bank Nifty also surged 1.93% to 50,157.95. Most sectors, including metals, pharma, and oil & gas, recorded strong gains.
The decisive break above the critical resistance at the 200 DEMA, i.e. 23,620, in Nifty has potentially strengthened its position further. The next target range is 23,900–24,200, said Ajit Mishra – SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd.
The immediate support level for Bank Nifty has shifted higher to 49,600–49,500, while the 50,200–50,300 zone serves as a key resistance, as per SAMCO Securities.
On Monday, the Indian market struggled to absorb the optimism generated by the good union budget due to heightened geopolitical risks stemming from ‘Trump tariff war’. However, India could outperform in a weak global market, and as a rebound has been triggered in the global sentiment, it has fuelled a sharp surge in domestic equities. While overall market sentiment remains positive, large-cap stocks are the preferred choice. Banking stocks are rallying in anticipation of a rate cut in this week's RBI policy, the new apex bank governor's first meet, said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services.
