Market Wrap: Nifty Tops 23,100; IT & Metals Lead Recovery
Nifty 50 closes above 23,100 as IT and Metals lead a 4-day winning streak. Focus shifts to RBI MPC meet. Top Gainers: Wipro (+3.7%) and Hindalco (+3%).
April 7, 2026 — Indian Stock Market Today: Indian equity indices extended their winning streak to a fourth consecutive session today. Despite a volatile start, the Nifty 50 closed above the crucial 23,100 mark, while the Sensex jumped over 500 points.
The Indian market opened on a weak note, pressured by elevated crude oil prices (edging above $110/bbl) and geopolitical anxiety surrounding President Trump’s deadline on Iran. However, a surge in buying across IT, Media, Metals and Realty sectors sparked a recovery.
Broader markets underperformed the benchmarks; the Nifty Midcap index rose 0.2%, while the Smallcap index ended with minor losses.
Except PSU Banks and Consumer Durables, all other sectors ended in the green.
