At the close, the Nifty 50 was at 20,855.10 up by 0.81%
The NSE Nifty 50 continued its impressive streak, initiating the day with a commendable 0.81% gain and concluding at a high surpassing the 20800 mark. This sustained surge over six consecutive sessions underscores an unprecedented rally, reinforcing a positive trajectory for the market.
Amid global caution surrounding imminent US job data, India’s domestic market soared to new heights. Robust buying across heavyweight sectors propelled the Nifty to unprecedented peaks, showcasing investor confidence in India’s growth prospects. Key sectors such as power, oil & gas, and banking displayed substantial gains, significantly contributing to the market’s upward momentum.
The recent electoral successes of the ruling party further invigorated investor sentiment, fortifying faith in India’s growth narrative and bolstering the prevailing bullish market sentiment. This optimistic outlook was reinforced by positive indicators including earnings surpassing expectations, robust GDP growth figures, and the anticipated resurgence of Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) inflows into the Indian market.
While the RBI is anticipated to maintain status quo in its forthcoming monetary policy meeting, investors are closely monitoring the central bank’s commentary on economic growth, foodgrain prices, and inflation trends. These factors wield considerable influence in shaping market sentiment and formulating future investment strategies amid the ongoing market upsurge.

Rupee Remains Steady Against Dollar Amid RBI Interventions
The Indian rupee concluded Tuesday’s trading session with marginal fluctuations against the US dollar, settling at 83.38, nearly unchanged from the previous close of 83.37. The stability of the rupee was maintained despite local demand for the dollar, as the central bank, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), intervened, selling dollars at the commencement of the spot trading session and intermittently throughout the day.
Notably, importers, particularly local oil marketing companies, were observed actively bidding for dollars on Tuesday, contributing to the demand for the greenback in the market. Despite the prevailing bias favoring rupee depreciation, the interventionist stance adopted by the RBI is anticipated to mitigate the steepness of the fall, acting as a stabilizing force in the forex market.
In related news, Brent crude futures, the global oil benchmark, experienced an uptick of 0.95%, reaching $78.77 per barrel. This increase in crude oil prices could potentially impact the rupee-dollar dynamics, given India’s substantial dependence on oil imports, thereby influencing the country’s trade balance and foreign exchange reserves.
The rupee’s resilience against the dollar amidst RBI interventions reflects a delicate balance influenced by both domestic demand dynamics and global market trends, particularly in the context of fluctuating oil prices that often exert pressure on India’s external trade position.
