Indian stock markets closed higher for the fourth consecutive session on Tuesday, with the Nifty index crossing the 23,800 mark for the first time since August 2026. The Sensex closed at 76,917.85, up 1,225 points or 1.62 per cent, while the Nifty settled at 23,810.85, up 370 points or 1.58 per cent. The rally was driven by falling crude oil prices, strong corporate earnings, and renewed buying by foreign investors. Consumer goods companies, led by Marico, were the top gainers, while PSU banks and metals were the major laggards. The Indian rupee also strengthened against the US dollar, trading around 94.70.
