The Indian stock market finished the first half of 2025 on a strong note. While investors faced volatility due to geopolitical tensions and high commodity prices, stocks bounced back quickly, showing confidence in India’s growth story.

The Nifty 50 rose 3.1% and the Sensex gained 2.65% in June alone. Together, both indices have surged more than 17% since April lows, marking one of the biggest recoveries in recent times.

Why Defence Stocks Are Rallying

Defence companies outperformed most sectors because of rising tensions with Pakistan and China, along with conflicts in the Middle East. As per news reports, investors believe the Indian government will continue to increase defence spending to strengthen national security. This optimism was further supported by NATO leaders committing to higher defence budgets and a strong long-term outlook for military modernisation in India. The defence budget for FY26 has been set at ₹6.81 trillion, up 6.3% over last year.

Conclusion
