Sensex Rises for 4th Day

2026-06-17 11:03 By Luisa Carvalho 1 min. read

India’s BSE Sensex finished about 0.5% up at 77,156 on Wednesday, extending gains for a fourth consecutive session and marking the longest winning streak in two months.

Market sentiment has been supported by easing crude oil prices and improved global sentiment following the US-Iran framework agreement.

Meanwhile, some caution persisted, with traders awaiting the US Federal Reserve’s policy outcome later in the day for clues on the policy outlook.

Attention was also on the bilateral meeting between President Modi and US President Trump on the sidelines of the G7 Summit, their first in over a year amid strained ties.

Among key movers, Trent surged 7.1% to lead gainers, on optimism over its long-term growth prospects despite Citi maintaining a ‘Sell’ rating.

Other top gainers included BEL (3.1%), Eternal (2%), Tata Steel (1.5%), Infosys (1.3%), Titan (1.1%), Bharti Airtel (1.1%) and State Bank of India (1%).

On the flip side, Bajaj Finserv (-1.2%) and Axis Bank (-1.1%) lagged.

Sensex Extends Rally to Fourth Day
India’s BSE Sensex rose about 0.3% to 77,065 on Wednesday, extending gains for a fourth consecutive session, although investors became cautious as they awaited fresh catalysts ahead of the US Federal Reserve’s policy decision later in the day, while also monitoring the broader global economic outlook.
