Indian shares pause after foreign fund-fuelled rally
· Business · Reuters
Indian equity benchmarks Sensex and Nifty paused after three consecutive sessions of gains, with the Sensex closing at 78,882.26 and Nifty at 23,878.55. Foreign institutional investors infused fresh capital, driving early-session gains as lower crude oil prices supported broader market sentiment. The rally was led by heavyweight Reliance Industries, which climbed 1.57 per cent to ₹2,947.30. Market participants tracked global cues and awaited upcoming corporate earnings for fresh direction.
