Mumbai, June 12 (SocialNews.XYZ) Indian equity markets rose in morning session on Friday, following positive global market cues amid a fall in oil prices and reports that US President Donald Trump had cancelled plans to strike Iran, citing progress in talks.
Sensex surged as much as 1.35 per cent or 1,000 points to touch an intraday high of 74,834 in early trade. Similarly, Nifty rose 1.26 per cent or about 300 points to 23,455.
Sectorally, all indices traded in green. Nifty Realty emerged as the top performer, rising 2.51 per cent, followed by Nifty Auto, which gained 1.79 per cent. Nifty Private Bank and Nifty PSU Bank indices advanced 1.29 per cent and 1.45 per cent, respectively. Other strong gainers included media, chemicals, consumer durables, oil & gas and cement.
Nifty Metals also traded higher, gaining 0.92 per cent, while Nifty FMCG was up 0.71 per cent and pharma and broader healthcare indices gained up to 0.86 per cent.
According to analysts, the near-term setup remains constructive, supported by strong global cues, sustained domestic institutional buying, and improving sectoral breadth. However, they cautioned that the sustainability of the rally will depend on whether indices can hold above key resistance zones in the coming sessions.
On the technical front, analysts noted the formation of an inverted hammer-like candlestick pattern, suggesting buying support at lower levels, though resistance continued to persist at higher zones. The RSI stood at 37.86.
“Key support is seen in the 23,000–23,100 zone, while resistance is placed around 23,600–23,650,” the experts said.
US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell roughly 3 per cent to $85 per barrel, while international benchmark Brent crude declined 1.59 per cent to $88.94 per barrel.
