Last week, the combined market capitalization of eight of India's top ten most valued firms surged by ₹4.13 trillion (approximately $49.7 billion USD), largely driven by gains from HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank. The BSE benchmark Sensex rose by 4,230.7 points or 5.77%, while the NSE Nifty increased by 1,337.5 points or 5.88%. Market sentiment was buoyed by optimism surrounding a temporary ceasefire between the US and Iran, despite ongoing geopolitical uncertainties. A notable drop in crude oil prices below the $100 mark alleviated domestic concerns and triggered a strong market rebound. Among the top gainers, HDFC Bank's market valuation increased by ₹91,282.67 crore, reaching ₹12,47,478.57 crore, while ICICI Bank's valuation rose by ₹76,036.36 crore to ₹9,46,741.85 crore. Other firms like Bajaj Finance, Larsen & Toubro, and Bharti Airtel also saw significant increases. Conversely, Reliance Industries and Infosys experienced declines in their market valuations.
