Benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty climbed in early trade on Tuesday (September 15, 2026), driven by a strong rally in IT stocks and HDFC Bank.

The 30-share BSE Sensex climbed 233.66 points to 75,022.37 in early trade. The 50-share NSE Nifty was up 63.85 points to 23,462.30.

Among the 30 Sensex firms, HCL Tech jumped 6.5%, Tech Mahindra climbed 5.6%, Tata Consultancy Services surged 5.10% and Infosys edged higher by 4.83%.

HDFC Bank, ITC, Hindustan Unilever and Tata Steel were also among the winners.

Bharat Electronics, Bajaj Finserv, NTPC and Titan were among the laggards.

“A positive for the Indian market is that there is clarity emerging on the choice of HDFC Bank MD and CEO. A quick acceptance of the name of the successor by the RBI can influence the benchmark index significantly,” V.K. Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited, said.

Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, traded 1.30% higher at $107 per barrel.

In Asian markets, South Korea’s Kospi and Japan’s Nikkei 225 index quoted in positive territory, while Shanghai’s SSE Composite index and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index traded lower.

U.S. markets ended lower on Monday (September 14, 2026).

The domestic equity markets were closed on Monday (September 14, 2026) on account of Ganesh Chaturthi.

Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth ₹930.90 crore on Friday (September 11, 2026), according to exchange data.

On Friday (September 11, 2026), the Sensex declined 120.83 points, or 0.16%, to settle at 74,781.76. The Nifty dipped 79.70 points, or 0.34%, to end at 23,398.10.

Stock markets across the country remained closed on Wednesday on account of the assembly elections in Maharashtra.

The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) observed a trading holiday to facilitate voting in Mumbai and other parts of the State.

According to the BSE trading holiday list, markets were closed for all Equity Segment, Equity Derivative Segment, and SLB Segment.

The holiday was announced earlier in accordance with the Maharashtra government’s declaration of a public holiday for election day. Normal trading will resume on Thursday, November 21.

Domestic stock markets yesterday showed some bounce back after consistent selling pressure at the beginning of this week.

Market experts noted that the Indian indices bounced back because of the oversold conditions in the market. However, foreign investors are still net sellers. On Tuesday, the foreign investors sold stocks worth ₹3,411.73 crores, while domestic investors (DIIs) bought equities worth ₹2,783.89 crores.

Ajay Bagga, Banking and Market Expert stated “The causes of the downtrend in Indian stocks are still very much present…FPI selling (though at a reducing intensity), downgrades to corporate earnings, slower economic growth and high real interest rates which are proving a drag on growth impulses. The bounce in the Indian markets needs to be seen as a bounce from oversold zones. Maybe foreign selling is abating, we will know that in a few days’ time. We are going up in consonance with Asian markets”.

In the Asian markets on Wednesday, mixed trends were visible. Except for South Korea’s KOSPI index and the Jakarta Composite, all other indices were trading with losses at the time of filing this report. The markets of Japan, Hong Kong, and Taiwan were trading with a decline.

Indian stock indices returned to the green zone on Tuesday after having traded lower for the past seven consecutive sessions.

Sensex closed at 77,578.38 points, up 239.38 points or 0.31%, while Nifty closed at 23,518.50 points, up 64.70 points or 0.28%.

Nifty Auto, Media, Realty, and Consumer Durables were the top movers in the sectoral space, while Metal, PSU Bank, and Oil and Gas were the losers, NSE data showed.
