2026-07-06 04:34 By Jereli Escobar 1 min. read

India’s BSE Sensex rose about 0.5% to 78,148 on Monday at the open, continuing its winning streak into a fourth session.

The gains were led by financial stocks after strong quarterly business updates from major private lenders, with HDFC Bank and Axis Bank providing a lift to broader market sentiment.

Lower crude oil prices also supported investor confidence, improving the outlook for inflation and India's import bill.

Among corporate developments, IndusInd Bank reported 3.3% sequential growth in net advances and 3.8% in deposits for the June quarter, though advances fell 2.3% YoY while deposits rose 4.5%.

Dabur India expects double-digit PAT growth in Q1, aided by pricing-led margin support, while Godrej Consumer guided for revenue growth driven by high-single-digit volume expansion.

Notable gainers included Digitide (12.9%), Diamond Power (10%), Shakti (6.7%), Paras (5%), Kirloskar (4.7%), and GE Vernova (3.9%).

Sensex Finishes at Near 2-Month High
India’s BSE Sensex closed about 0.3% up at 77,764 on Friday, the highest since early May and extending gains for a third straight session. Cooling crude oil prices, growing expectations of a more accommodative global monetary policy stance and ongoing strength in IT stocks continued to support market sentiment. The heavyweight tech sector continued to benefit from expectations that a more dovish US central bank could boost technology stocks globally. HCL Tech (5.8%) led gains among stocks, with Tech Mahindra (1.8%), TCS (1.2%) and Infosys (0.6%) also advancing. Bajaj Finance rose 1.4% as it reported a strong operational performance for the first quarter of FY27, with robust growth in assets under management (AUM), loan disbursements and customer acquisition. Axis Bank, State Bank of India, Mahindra & Mahindra, Larsen & Toubro and Kotak Bank posted the largest declines, ranging between 0.7%-1.6%. For the week, the index booked a 0.9% gain.
