India's equity benchmarks closed the day on a high note, marking its highest closing level in 2025, fuelled by "easing geopolitical tensions" in the Middle East region.
The Indian stock markets opened in the green on Wednesday, with the Nifty and Sensex both maintaining their previous strength, buoyed by easing tensions in the Middle East and positive sentiments in the global markets.
Indian stock market ended higher on Tuesday, with the BSE Sensex rising about 158 points and the Nifty 50 at National Stock Exchange (NSE) closing above the 25,000 mark.
Indian stock markets witnessed a strong rally on Tuesday opening session after US President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, bringing some relief to global investors amid recent geopolitical tensions.

Indian stock markets opened on a weak note on Monday, reacting sharply to rising geopolitical tensions after the US-Iran conflict escalated over the weekend. Both benchmark indices faced strong selling pressure in the early trading session.
The BSE Sensex surged 1,046.30 points to settle at 82,408.17, while the NSE Nifty jumped 319.15 points, ending the day at 25,112.40. Among the Nifty 50 constituents, 44 stocks ended in the green, with only 6 closing in the red, indicating broad-based market strength.

India's equity benchmarks remained muted on Thursday and ended with a marginal loss, possibly due to the ongoing geopolitical conflict in the Middle East and cautious signals from the US Federal Reserve, dampening investors' sentiment.
