India’s share market indices, Sensex and Nifty50, closed almost flat on Tuesday, April 29, 2025. The Sensex (index with top 30 firms) surged 70.01 points to close at 80,288.38 on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Nifty50 (index with top 50 firms) was up 7.45 points to close at 24,335.95 points. Among the sensex-packed stocks, 14 advanced while 16 saw the decline.
The Sensex surged 178 points to open at 80,396.92 on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Nifty50 was up 42.20 points to open at 24,370.70 points.
During Tuesday’s trade, the Indian share market was largely driven by the strong inflows from foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) and domestic institutional investors (DIIs). Moreover, market experts highlighted that the gains are primarily driven by positive flows from both domestic and international fronts. However, they cautioned that uncertainty continues to linger due to the geopolitical risk of a potential kinetic action against Pakistan.
This move is keeping the markets well-funded, even after FPIs withdrew over $2.5 billion from the Indian bond markets in the past month.
What Else For The Share Market?
Indian stock market is on the strong note because of the back of global optimism and hopes of easing trade tensions. This marginal surge came after comments and actions from the US government signalled possible tariff relief.
Ajay Bagga Banking and Market Expert told ANI, “Indian markets are benefitting from combined inflows from returning FPIs and continued DII inflows. The geopolitical overhang is being addressed for now with inflows leading to good performance in the markets, but we are approaching key levels on both the Nifty and the broader indices. Taking a 6-month view, markets remain 7 per cent plus under the September 2025 highs, so despite the three recovery phases we have seen, we have not been able to approach those levels yet.”
