Indian stocks rise sharply amid geopolitical calm

Indian equity benchmarks surged on 24 Mar 2026, with the Sensex up 1,027 points to 73,724.05, driven by easing geopolitical tensions. However, FII outflows of ₹88,180 cr in March raise concerns about market stability.

Indian equity benchmarks opened sharply higher on 24 Mar 2026, with the S&P BSE Sensex up 1,027 points to 73,724.05 and the NSE Nifty50 adding 329 points to 22,842.10. This surge was fueled by positive global sentiment following the US's decision to postpone strikes against Iranian energy infrastructure.

However, FII outflows reached ₹88,180 cr in March, indicating ongoing selling pressure that could impact market stability. Early leaders included Asian Paints and InterGlobe Aviation, valued at ₹2.03 lakh crore and ₹1.7 lakh crore, respectively.
