New Delhi, April 22, 2025: It was a good start to the week for Indian investors as the stock market opened in the green on Tuesday. The Sensex jumped by 300 points, and the Nifty 50 moved past the 24,200 mark, bringing some much-needed cheer after a period of ups and downs.

This upbeat mood comes even as U.S. markets remained under pressure. Despite global concerns, Indian stocks stayed resilient, with major sectors like IT, real estate, oil & gas posting solid gains.

By the end of the session, the Nifty closed at 24,125.55, rising over 1%, while the Bank Nifty gained more than 1.5% to hit 55,304.50.

Some individual stocks, however, didn’t perform as well. Infosys slipped by around 2%, and IndusInd Bank saw a 6% drop. On the brighter side, metal stocks showed strong momentum, helping to lift overall market sentiment.

Market experts believe that Nifty moving past the 24,100 resistance level is a good sign. If this strength continues, we might see the index testing the 24,450 to 24,500 range soon.

While markets may still see some choppiness ahead, today’s rally is a welcome sign for investors hoping for a steady climb in the days to come.
