DOMESTIC equity markets surged on Thursday, the second trading session of 2025, driven by optimism over improved third-quarter earnings. Robust performance by auto companies in December further bolstered buying sentiment, fueling the rally.
Benchmark indices, BSE Sensex and NSENifty50, gained about 2% with the former breaching the 80,000 mark in intraday deals. At close, the Sensex was up 1,436.30 points or 1.83% at 79,943.71, and the Nifty surged 445.75 points or 1.88% to close at 24,188.65.
The sharp rally added more than ₹6 lakh crore to investors' kitty as the market capitalization of all BSE listed companies grew from ₹445.94 lakh crore on Wednesday to ₹452 lakh crore on Thursday. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) also joined the party as they were net buyers (purchased shares worth ₹1,507 crore) on Thursday.
All the sectoral indices closed in the green. The auto index, led by heavyweight Maruti Suzuki, zoomed 3.5% and the IT index was up 2%.
