Sensex Today | Nifty50 Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates Today | Opening Bell: Sensex Up 1,197 Points, Nifty Near 24,000 As Markets Rally

Vedanta Demerger: The long-awaited demerger of Vedanta, led by Anil Agarwal, was finally executed with four newly carved-out entities of the group making their debut on the bourses on Monday. Shares of Vedanta Aluminium Metal, Vedanta Oil & Gas, Vedanta Power and Vedanta Iron & Steel started trading on the BSE and NSE on Monday, ending one of the biggest restructuring exercises. The move creates focused companies for Vedanta’s many businesses, giving investors a choice of aluminium, energy, power and steel rather than buying the whole conglomerate.

The early market reaction suggests investors are beginning to value the group’s businesses on a stand-alone basis, something brokers have long said was difficult to do when all the operations were bundled together under one listed group.

Opening Bell: Indian benchmark indices opened in green today. Strengthening global cues coupled with ease in crude prices saw the Sensex recover over 1,197 points to trade at 76,725.27, while Nifty was up 362 points at 23,984.85 at the opening.

Dalal Street Outlook: Last week, Indian equity markets gave investors a reason to cheer. Sensex and Nifty staged a smart recovery, with their biggest single-day gain in weeks, after days of volatility, led by waning Middle East tensions and falling crude prices. This gain was enough to boost market capitalisation for BSE-listed firms by approximately Rs 10 lakh crore, taking it to Rs 462 lakh crore. As Dalal Street heads into a new trading week, questions arise about whether the bull run will continue or if the Friday surge was merely a breather. The answer could depend on a mix of global and domestic factors, including developments on the proposed US-Iran peace deal, crude oil prices, rupee movement, the US Federal Reserve’s policy decision, and foreign investor activity.
