The Indian stock market rebounded on Monday, with the Sensex rising 319 points to 83,535 and the Nifty 50 closing at 25,574, holding above the key 25,550 level. Gains were driven by global optimism over a potential end to the U.S. government shutdown and positive corporate earnings.

Top gainers included HCL Technologies, Bajaj Finance, Infosys, Asian Paints, and Reliance Industries. Among top losers were Trent, Apollo Hospitals, Max Healthcare, Maruti Suzuki, and Dr Reddy’s Laboratories.

The IT and financial sectors led the rally, while healthcare and consumer discretionary stocks lagged. Analysts said global cues and domestic earnings will continue to influence market direction in the coming sessions.

Indian markets opened on a positive note on Monday, tracking gains across Asian peers. The Sensex jumped over 250 points, while the Nifty 50 climbed past 25,550 as investor sentiment improved following expectations of an early end to the U.S. government shutdown and optimism about corporate earnings momentum.

Infosys, HCL Technologies, and select banking stocks led the rally, helping lift the benchmarks after a volatile week of losses. Among broader market movers, HBL Engineering and Neuland Laboratories were top gainers in early trade, while Transformers and Rectifiers (India), Trent, and Nava saw declines.

Analysts said the rebound reflected improving global cues and renewed confidence in India’s growth outlook ahead of key inflation data and corporate results later this week.

Broader markets also weakened, with the Nifty Midcap 100 down 0.9% and the Smallcap 100 falling 1.3%.

Indian stock markets closed lower on Thursday, reversing early gains as investors took a pause after a strong rally in October.

The BSE Sensex fell 148 points, while the NSE Nifty50 slipped below 25,550. Among individual stocks, Powergrid declined nearly 3% and Eternal fell 2%.

Indian stock markets ended lower on Tuesday as selling in IT, auto and metal shares pulled the indices down.

The Nifty 50 dropped 165 points (0.64%) to close at 25,597, while the Sensex slipped 519 points (0.64%) to 83,459.

Among major losers were Power Grid, Tata Motors, Tata Steel, and Maruti Suzuki, which fell between 2% and 3%. IT stocks were under pressure after mixed comments from U.S. Federal Reserve officials weakened hopes of an interest rate cut in December.

The broader markets also fell, with the small-cap index down 0.8% and the mid-cap index lower by 0.4%.

On the brighter side, Bharti Airtel rose 1.9% to a record high after reporting strong quarterly earnings, while Titan Company jumped 2.3% on better-than-expected results. Mahindra & Mahindra and State Bank of India also gained from healthy profits.

Indian stocks traded with high volatility on Monday, opening slightly lower as investors took profits after a strong rally in October. Weakness in private banks and FMCG shares pulled the markets down, though positive quarterly results and encouraging auto sales data helped limit the fall.

The mood in global markets also stayed cautious. A stronger U.S. dollar and the Federal Reserve’s cautious outlook on interest rate cuts made investors less willing to take risks.

On Friday, Indian markets had already ended lower for the second day in a row as traders booked profits following mixed corporate earnings. Financial stocks, especially HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank, faced pressure after the market regulator tightened some eligibility rules.

At close on Friday, the Sensex had fallen 465.75 points (0.55%) to 83,938.71, while the Nifty 50 lost 155.75 points (0.60%) to end at 25,722.10.

Analysts said the market could stay choppy in the short term as investors look for direction from global cues, crude oil prices, and upcoming earnings reports.
