Sensex, Nifty Rise Around One Percent Monday

Indian stock markets made a strong comeback on Monday after falling sharply in a special trading session following the presentation of the Union Budget 2026–27.

The BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty both rose by around 1 percent, reflecting renewed investor confidence. The positive trend was not limited to the top stocks; the broader market also showed strength. Mid-cap stocks gained 0.96 percent, while small-cap stocks rose by 0.64 percent, indicating that investors were buying across different segments.

Market experts said the rebound was due to bargain buying and investors’ optimism about certain budget proposals that may benefit the economy in the long term. Sectors that had been under pressure in the previous session showed recovery, and trading activity picked up as investors adjusted their portfolios.

Overall, Monday’s session highlighted the resilience of the Indian stock markets and the willingness of investors to react positively after an initial budget-related decline. Analysts said the markets could continue to remain volatile in the short term as traders digest the details of the Union Budget.
