Mumbai, September 11, 2025: Indian equities staged a smart recovery on Thursday, rebounding more than 350 points from intraday lows as investors took comfort from firm global cues and hopes of policy support. The Sensex climbed 356 points to 81,575.47, while the Nifty reclaimed the psychologically important 25,000 mark to trade at 25,003.10 around mid-session. Gains were led by Shriram Finance, NTPC, Adani Enterprises, Power Grid Corporation and Axis Bank, which rose up to 3 percent. Market breadth stayed positive with advances outnumbering declines, reflecting improving sentiment after recent volatility.
The uptrend was underpinned by optimism around a possible US Federal Reserve rate cut next week and signs of easing trade tensions between Washington and New Delhi, following comments by President Trump about resuming talks. Positive trends in Asian equities, coupled with a mild decline in crude oil prices, further supported risk appetite. However, remain watchful of the 25,100 resistance level on the Nifty, cautioning that a failure to sustain above this zone or a slip below 24,700 could limit near-term momentum. For now, upbeat global cues, trade optimism, and easing input cost pressures are providing tailwinds for Indian markets.
Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities, adds:
Today, the benchmark indices witnessed range-bound activity at higher levels. The Nifty ends 32 points higher, while the Sensex was up by 124 points. Among sectors, the Oil and Gas index outperformed, rallying over 1 percent, whereas the Capital Market index lost the most, shedding 1.60 percent. Technically, after a muted open, the entire day saw lackluster activity. On daily charts, it has formed a small candle, and on intraday charts, it is witnessing consolidation.
For day traders, the 50-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) or 24,900/81200 would act as a crucial support zone. As long as the market is trading above this level, the bullish sentiment is likely to continue. On the higher side, 25,050/81700 would be the immediate breakout zone. A successful breakout above 25,050/81700 could push the market up to 25,150–25,200/82000-82200. On the flip side, a move below 24,900/81200 would render the uptrend vulnerable.
