India’s share market indices, Sensex and Nifty50, ended the day’s trade in green on Wednesday, May 14, 2025. The Sensex (index with top 30 firms) surged 182.34 points to close at 81,330.56 on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Nifty50 (index with top 50 firms) was up 88.55 points to close at 24,666.90 points.

The surge in the share market came as tensions between India and Pakistan ease. India and Pakistan on Saturday announced to stop all military actions and firing across their shared border immediately. The tensions between the 2 countries had sharply increased after a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, which resulted in the deaths of 26 people. As the ceasefire between India and Pakistan begins, several tough measures taken by India to maintain pressure on Pakistan remain in place, including the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty.
In the previous trading session, the market participants booked their profits, following the normalcy due to the ceasefire between India and Pakistan. The equity indices declined substantially on Tuesday and closed in the red.
The market analysts said that foreign portfolio investment (FPI) outflow in the future markets remains a worrisome situation. On the positive side, the market participants are likely to react positively to the latest consumer price index data released on Tuesday, shaping the buying sentiment going forward.
