Today was a historic day for the Indian stock markets as the BSE Sensex breached the 79,000 mark and the NSE Nifty breached the 24,000 mark for the first time, setting new records in mid-day trade.

The Sensex rose 470.71 points to 79,159.89, while the Nifty rose 164.10 points to 24,032.90.

The day started on a slight note with the stock market opening flat, initially witnessing a marginal decline after closing at a record high in the previous trading session.

The Sensex opened with a loss of 94.13 points at 78,580.12 while the Nifty opened with a loss of 19.25 points at 23,849.55. Weak cues from Asian markets dampened the initial market sentiment, which in turn impacted the early trading pattern.

Nifty witnessed a mixed performance among listed companies throughout the morning session, with 21 stocks gaining and 29 declining.

Investors closely monitored sectors ranging from banking and finance to technology and healthcare, contributing to the overall market dynamics.

The crossing of important milestones by both Sensex and Nifty reflects strong investor confidence amid favourable domestic economic indicators and global market stability.

Analysts believe today's record-breaking performance can be attributed to renewed optimism on corporate earnings, continued foreign institutional investment (FII) and positive cues from global indices.

Market experts suggest that the current bullish trend underlines India's resilience in the face of global economic uncertainties, positioning the country as a strong investment destination. As trading progresses, market participants continue to track sector-specific developments and policy announcements for more insights on future market trends.

The record-breaking levels achieved by Sensex and Nifty today mark a significant milestone in India's financial markets, highlighting their role as key drivers of economic growth and investor sentiment.
