The benchmark BSE Sensex rose by 182.24 points (0.25%) to 73,172.17, while the NSE Nifty gained 49.80 points (0.23%) to reach 22,132.45. This uptick was primarily driven by significant gains in the IT, telecom, and energy sectors.

Among the top performers, Power Grid Corporation of India saw a 2.66% increase, trading at ₹260.80. Mahindra & Mahindra followed closely with a 2.65% rise, reaching ₹2,683.40. HCL Technologies also experienced a 1.57% uptick, trading at ₹1,560.

This positive momentum comes after a previous session marked by declines, influenced by the implementation of U.S. tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico. The rebound reflects renewed investor confidence, particularly in sectors demonstrating resilience amid global economic challenges.

Analysts advise monitoring global trade developments closely, as ongoing geopolitical tensions could impact market stability in the coming weeks.
