India’s benchmark indices closed higher on Tuesday, with the Sensex gaining 472 points and the Nifty crossing the 22,500 mark. ITC Ltd shares rose about 4%.
The BSE Sensex ended the trading session 472 points higher, finishing at a level that reflects renewed buying interest across large‑cap stocks. Meanwhile, the NSE Nifty breached the 22,500 threshold, marking a fresh milestone for the broader market index.
ITC Ltd, one of the market’s heavyweight stocks, posted a 4% gain, contributing to the overall upward momentum. The stock’s rise was the most pronounced among the top‑moving shares on the day.
Market analysts noted that the rally came as investors absorbed recent corporate earnings and global cues, but the report sticks to the confirmed closing figures without speculation on underlying drivers.
