Indian stock markets closed the week on a strong footing, bouncing back after two consecutive weeks of losses. The bullish sentiment was fueled by a surprise policy pivot from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), which provided a boost to investor confidence, particularly in interest rate-sensitive sectors like financials and real estate.
The benchmark NSE Nifty 50 index rose by 1% on Friday, closing at 25,003. Meanwhile, the BSE Sensex surged 747 points on Friday to settle at 82,189, as market optimism returned. The Nifty Bank index also saw strong gains, rising nearly 2% to end the week at 56,578.
