Stock Market India: Equity benchmarks rallied on Tuesday, adding to their gains from the previous day.
Equity benchmarks surged on Tuesday, extending their gains for the third day in a row, driven by a broader risk-assets rally after a dramatic U-turn in British fiscal policy brightened investor sentiment.
Stocks were also helped by the strength of Asian peers and overnight advances on Wall Street driven by improvement in risk sentiment led by strong corporate earnings updates.
The 30-share Sensex index jumped 549.62 points to end at 58,960.60, and the broader NSE Nifty-50 index climbs 175.15 points to 17,486.95, with both benchmarks extending their rally for the third straight day.
