Indian stock markets welcomed Vikram Samvat 2082 with festive fervor and closed with gains in the symbolic Muhurat trading session on Diwali evening. The BSE Sensex closed 62.97 points (0.07%) higher at 84,426.34, while the NSE Nifty rose 25.45 points (0.10%) to 25,868.60, marking the fifth consecutive session of gains amid strong global cues. The one-hour period, signaling prosperity, saw a flurry of activity across all major exchanges – BSE, NSE, MCX, NCDEX – including block deals (1:15-1:45 pm IST) and normal trading (1:45-2:45 pm IST).

Despite thin trading and sporadic profit-taking, analysts lauded the market’s resilience. “Nifty holding above 25,800 indicates bullish momentum, with 25,750 as immediate support and 25,600-25,500 as key base. Moving beyond 26,000-26,300 could create new all-time highs,” said Ajit Mishra of Religare Broking. Bank Nifty declined marginally and fell 26 points (0.04%) to 58,007.20, reflecting selective caution.

Top Sensex performers included Bajaj Finserv(up 2.1%), Infosys(up 1.8%), Axis Bank(1.5%), Tata Steel(1.3%), Power Grid and Bajaj Finance, boosted by regional strength in Nifty Auto (+0.3%), IT (+0.4%), Metals (+0.5%), Pharma, Energy and Oil & Gas. Kotak Mahindra Bank (-1.2%), HCL Technologies, ICICI Bank, Maruti Suzuki and Asian Paints declined, while Nifty Bank, PSU Bank and Realty shares declined marginally. Broader markets were bright: NSE Midcap 100 rose 0.11% and Nifty Smallcap 100 rose 0.52%, indicating broad optimism.

The upbeat mood of the session is in line with the stellar performance of Samvat 2081—Sensex up 24.59%, Nifty up 26.02%, giving investors wealth worth ₹105 lakh crore. Experts estimate the Nifty to touch 28,000 by next Diwali, which is possible due to India’s 7.2% GDP growth and ₹2.2 trillion FII investments since July. There was excitement in Amid global volatility—US markets up 0.8%, Europe mixed—India’s resilience shines through. Will Samvat 2082 set new records?
