The Sensex, comprising 30 major companies, opened at 81,196.08 compared to its previous close of 80,998.25 and surged over 900 points to reach an intraday high of 81,911.13.

Broader markets also joined the rally, with BSE Midcap and Smallcap indices rising close to 1%, indicating strong buying across the board.
The total market capitalization of companies listed on the BSE rose sharply to ₹449 lakh crore, up from ₹445 lakh crore in the previous session. This resulted in a wealth addition of nearly ₹4 lakh crore (approx. USD 48 billion) for investors in a single day.
