On Friday, December 12, 2025, Indian benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 extended their winning streak to a second consecutive session, buoyed by positive global sentiment following a rate cut by the US Federal Reserve. The Sensex surged 450 points, or 0.53%, closing at 85,267.66, while the Nifty 50 gained 148 points, or 0.57%, to finish at 26,046.95. Broader markets also saw robust gains, with the BSE Midcap and Smallcap indices rising 1.14% and 0.65%, respectively.
Markets opened higher, and although Nifty witnessed some early volatility, steady buying in heavyweight stocks helped it close near the day’s high. Most sectors participated in the rally, except FMCG, with metals, realty, and energy leading the gains. Improved market breadth was supported by healthy domestic flows, particularly from retail investors and mutual funds, alongside stable macroeconomic indicators and enhanced liquidity. Foreign flows were mixed due to currency fluctuations and ongoing US–India trade discussions.
Key stocks to watch include Paytm, Wipro, KEC International, Tata Steel, Bharat Electronics, Dr. Reddy’s, Biocon, Godawari Power and Ispat, and NLC India, driven by corporate developments, order inflows, strategic expansions, regulatory approvals, and new partnerships.
