Stock market ends in green for the fifth consecutive trading session
On the last trading day of the week, the Indian stock market continued its upward trend for the fifth consecutive session. After witnessing a decline in the market last week, this week both the BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty traded in the green for the entire week. On Friday morning (March 21 2025), the main indexes of the Indian stock market Nifty50 and Sensex rose sharply after a weak start. This rise came due to new hopes of a reduction in the selling by foreign investors in large cap stocks.
Sensex is trading up by about 4%
In the afternoon, the BSE Sensex rose by more than 600 points to reach the level of 77,041. Similarly, the Nifty came down after reaching a high level of 23,402. Nifty today recorded the highest one-day rise during the last seven trading sessions. With the rise in the index on Friday, it is trading up by about 4% in a week. The series of rise in the stock market has come due to the decline in investors’ selling. By the end of the day Nifty rose 159 points to close at 23,350 while sensex closed 76,905 points.
Market cap increased by Rs 4 lakh crore
All 13 sectors saw a rise during the trading session. The market cap of companies listed on BSE has increased by Rs 4.31 lakh crore to Rs 412.92 lakh crore. In the afternoon, the Sensex climbed by about 700 points to reach 77,013 points. While Nifty50 rose by about 200 points to reach 23,402 points. Including Friday’s rise, the Sensex rose by about 4% this week. This is expected to be the best week in the stock market since July 2022.
