Sensex Jumps 938 Points, Nifty Ends Above 23,400 as Markets Recover After Recent Sell-Off
Indian equity markets closed higher on Monday as benchmark indices recovered strongly after the previous session’s sharp decline. The BSE Sensex rose 938.93 points, or 1.26%, to close at 75,502.85, while the Nifty 50 gained 257.70 points to settle at 23,408.80.
According to market data, the Sensex experienced significant volatility during the session. The index touched an early low of 73,949.76 in the first two hours of trading before rallying to a high of 75,805.27 later in the day. The movement represented an intraday swing of approximately 1,855 points.
Market participants attributed the recovery to improved investor sentiment after recent geopolitical tensions showed signs of easing. The rebound came after a steep sell-off in the previous trading session, which had weighed on market confidence.
Among individual stocks, UltraTech Cement and Trent Ltd were among the notable gainers during the session, contributing to the broader market’s upward movement.
The gains were reflected across several sectors as investors returned to equities following the earlier downturn. Analysts noted that market movements during the session highlighted continued volatility driven by global developments and investor sentiment.
Despite the fluctuations during the day, both the Sensex and the Nifty ended the session with strong gains, closing above key psychological levels and signalling a temporary recovery in the Indian equity markets.
