What happened in the Indian stock market today?

On June 5, 2024, the Indian stock market rebounded after significant losses.

The BSE Sensex rose 3.20%, or 2,303.19 points, to 74,382.24, while the NSE Nifty increased by 3.36%, or 735.85 points, to 22,360.25.

This comeback came as investors processed the Lok Sabha election results and refocused on market fundamentals. Comments from top brokerage firms indicated that the election outcome was a short-term trigger with no long-term impact. 

The previous day’s market decline provided a buying opportunity, supported by India’s strong macroeconomic foundations, robust domestic investment, and potential rate cuts later this year.

Impact on the stock market

All sectoral indices ended with strong gains on the NSE. Nifty Metal and Private Bank indices surged over 5% each, while Nifty Bank, Auto, Financial Services, and FMCG indices jumped over 4% each. Other sectoral indices also rose up to 3%.
