Sensex Rises 450 Points from Day’s Low, Nifty Crosses 24,100 as Crude Prices Ease

Sensex Rises 450 Points from Day’s Low, Nifty Crosses 24,100 as Crude Prices Ease

Post by : Raina Al-Fahim

Indian stock markets saw a strong recovery on June 17, 2026, as the Sensex rose 450 points from its day’s low. The Nifty index also moved higher and crossed the 24,100 mark during the trading session. The market showed steady gains after early pressure, supported by positive global signals.

One of the main reasons behind the market rise was the fall in crude oil prices. Brent crude dropped below $80 per barrel, which helped ease worries about inflation. Lower crude prices are seen as good for India because the country imports most of its oil.

Another key factor supporting the market was optimism around the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision. Investors expect that stable or softer rate signals from the Fed could support global growth and improve market sentiment.

The recovery in the Sensex and Nifty also reflected improved buying interest in key sectors after the early decline in the day. Investors focused on global cues and commodity trends before making fresh trading decisions.

Market experts said that falling oil prices, along with expectations of stable global interest rates, helped boost investor confidence. This led to a broad recovery in Indian equities during the session.

Overall, the Sensex and Nifty showed strong resilience by bouncing back from their lows and ending the session on a positive note, supported by global economic signals and easing crude oil prices.
