Stock Market News Today Highlights: Nifty, Sensex End With Marginal Gains After One-Day Blip
12 hours ago

Indian equity benchmarks resumed gains on Wednesday, following Tuesday's rout. The BSE Sensex rose 50 points to close at 82,276 and the NSE Nifty ended 0.23% higher at 25,482.

In the morning trading session, the 50-stock index had risen as much as 1% to 26,652, while the 30-stock index rose as much as 730 points to 82,957.

Ten out of 15 sectoral gauges compiled by the NSE ended higher, led by the NSE Nifty Metal Index's 2.7% advance. On the flipside, the NSE Nifty PSU Bank Index was the top sectoral loser, down 0.4%.
