Sensex Rises on Second Day

India’s BSE Sensex rose about 0.7% to 74,402 at the open on Wednesday, extending gains from the previous session despite mounting geopolitical tensions in the Middle East that continued to cloud investor sentiment. The benchmark index advanced despite broader weakness across Asian markets, as investors balanced support from the Reserve Bank of India’s recent liquidity and forex measures against renewed concerns over escalating Middle East tensions, which drove oil prices higher. The index was driven higher by gains in consumer non-durables, with top performers including Hindustan (+2.9%), Cupid (+2.7%), Nestle (+2.8%), COLPAL (+2.9%), and Varun (+1.0%). Other notable gainers across sectors included Meesho (+1.7%), Himadri (+1.6%), Reliance (+2.1%), Afcons (+5.9%), and TCS (+1.2%). Meanwhile, investors will continue to monitor developments in the Middle East, movements in crude oil prices, foreign portfolio flows, and the rupee for further direction throughout the session.
