Benchmark BSE Sensex jumped by nearly 567 points and broader Nifty closed above 25,900 on Monday (October 27, 2025) following a sharp rally in global markets, as softer-than-expected U.S. inflation reignited hopes of Fed rate cuts this year.
The 30-share BSE Sensex jumped 566.96 points or 0.67% to settle at 84,778.84. During the day, it surged 720.2 points or 0.85% to 84,932.08.
The 50-share NSE Nifty climbed 170.90 points or 0.66% to 25,966.05.
Prospects of a U.S.-China trade deal and fresh foreign fund inflows also added to the markets’ optimism, analysts said.
Among Sensex firms, Bharti Airtel, Reliance Industries, Eternal, State Bank of India, Tata Steel and HDFC Bank were the major gainers.
However, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Bharat Electronics, Infosys and Bajaj Finance were among the laggards.
PSU Banks index outperformed among sectoral indices, rallying 2.76%, whereas defence and media shares fell due to profit booking.
In Asian markets, South Korea’s Kospi, Japan’s Nikkei 225 index, Shanghai’s SSE Composite index and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng settled sharply higher.
Markets in Europe were trading on a mixed note. U.S. markets ended in positive territory on Friday (October 24).
Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) bought equities worth ₹621.51 crore on Friday (October 24), according to exchange data.
“The domestic market witnessed a broad-based recovery owing to progress in the U.S.-China trade talks. Softer-than-expected U.S. CPI data renewed expectations of a FED rate cut this week, boosting investor confidence. Easing global headwinds, coupled with strong domestic reforms, provided cues for domestic earnings growth and justified the current premium valuations,” Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said.
Global oil benchmark Brent crude declined 0.85% to $65.38 a barrel.
