Sensex Surges 1,500 Points In Strongest Session In Four Months

Indian equity benchmarks posted their strongest session in four months, with the Sensex surging over 1,500 points and the Nifty moving closer to the 23,000 mark, even as global AI-linked stocks slumped elsewhere.

The rally came alongside a stronger rupee, continuing the currency’s recent run against the dollar. Nifty Bank also pushed close to its all-time high during the session, reflecting broad-based buying across banking and financial stocks rather than a narrow, single-sector move.

The strength of the session stood out particularly given the weaker global backdrop, with AI-related stocks dragging down several overseas markets on the same day. Investors will be watching whether this domestic resilience holds through the rest of the week, or whether global cues eventually pull Indian markets along with them.
