The Indian equity market closed higher on Tuesday, driven by favorable domestic and global factors. Adani Enterprises emerged as the top gainer in the Nifty 50 index, leading a strong performance across multiple sectors.
At the close of trading, the Sensex rose by 169.62 points, or 0.22%, settling at 76,499.63. The Nifty also saw a positive movement, gaining 90.10 points, or 0.39%, to end at 23,176.05. This upward trend reflected investor optimism, buoyed by strong performances across a variety of sectors.
Adani Group stocks were major contributors to the rally. Adani Enterprises led the Nifty 50 gainers with a remarkable rise of 7.05%. Other stocks from the group also saw significant gains: Adani Ports surged 5.25%, Adani Green Energy rose by 13.52%, Adani Power jumped by 20%, and Adani Energy Solutions gained 12.23%. As a result, all Adani Group stocks closed in the green.
Midcap and smallcap stocks played a significant role in the market’s positive performance. The Nifty Midcap 100 index rose by 2.45%, gaining 1,286.10 points to close at 53,676.50. Meanwhile, the Nifty Smallcap 100 index saw an increase of 1.98%, adding 335.70 points to finish at 17,257.80.

The market capitalization of all companies listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) saw a remarkable surge, increasing by Rs 6 lakh crore to reach around Rs 423 lakh crore. This jump indicates a strong recovery in investor sentiment.
Market experts attributed the positive movement to a rebound in the global market and easing domestic CPI inflation. These factors provided relief to broader indices. “This could give the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) more room in its upcoming policy meeting,” said one analyst. However, experts cautioned that rising oil prices and higher 10-year bond yields would need to be closely monitored in the coming weeks.
On the BSE, a majority of stocks ended in the green, with 2,881 advancing, 1,087 declining, and 105 remaining unchanged. Among sectoral indices, Auto, PSU Banks, Financial Services, Pharma, Metal, Realty, Media, Energy, Private Banks, and Infrastructure saw the highest gains. On the other hand, the IT and FMCG sectors lagged behind.
Within the Sensex, Adani Ports, NTPC, Zomato, Tata Motors, Bajaj Finance, SBI, Bajaj Finserv, IndusInd Bank, Maruti Suzuki, Sun Pharma, M&M, and Power Grid were the top gainers. Conversely, HCL Technologies, Hindustan Unilever (HUL), Titan, TCS, Infosys, and UltraTech Cement were the biggest losers.
The IT sector, in particular, faced downward pressure due to concerns over weak earnings guidance for Q4. Domestic sentiment is expected to focus on the ongoing earnings season and the upcoming Union Budget, which has generated mixed opinions among investors.
As the market continues to navigate these developments, investors will be closely watching global trends, inflation data, and corporate earnings in the weeks ahead.
