Indian equity markets staged a strong recovery on June 24 after witnessing sharp losses in the previous session. The benchmark indices moved higher as investors returned to banking and select IT stocks, while easing crude oil prices and hopes of an India-US trade agreement boosted market sentiment.
The BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty bounced back sharply during Wednesday's trading session.
After falling nearly 900 points on Tuesday, the Sensex recovered strongly and crossed the 77,000 mark during intraday trade. The Nifty also regained the important 24,000 level.
Private sector banks were the biggest contributors to the market's recovery.
ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank together accounted for nearly 400 points of the Sensex's gain. Other major banking stocks, including SBI, Axis Bank and Kotak Mahindra Bank, also traded higher.
| Stock | Performance |
| ICICI Bank | Up nearly 3% |
| HDFC Bank | Up around 2% |
| Trent | Up nearly 4% |
| Infosys | Gained over 1% |
| TCS | Gained over 1% |
One of the biggest positive triggers for Indian equities has been the decline in crude oil prices.
Lower oil prices help reduce India's import bill, ease inflation concerns and improve overall economic sentiment.
| Crude Benchmark | Peak During War Period | Current Level |
| WTI Crude | $119.48/barrel | Around $72.50/barrel |
| Brent Crude | $126.41/barrel | Around $76.24/barrel |
Oil prices have corrected significantly from their earlier highs, providing relief to oil-importing countries such as India.
Investor sentiment also improved on expectations of an interim trade agreement between India and the United States.
Officials from both countries have resumed high-level discussions aimed at finalising a trade pact before the expiry of the temporary 10% US tariff arrangement.
Indian markets witnessed a strong rebound on June 24, supported by gains in banking stocks, easing crude oil prices and optimism surrounding an India-US trade deal.
