The Sensex Nifty rally gave Indian stocks their best week in nearly six years. Both indices closed Friday near their weekly highs. The Sensex ended at 81,028.02. The Nifty settled at 25,030.35. Foreign buying and softer crude oil powered the move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The rally ran for seven straight sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Thursday, the Sensex closed at 79,310.01 and the Nifty at 24,536.60. On Friday, both rose again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Sensex gained 1,718.01 points, or 2.17%. The Nifty added 493.75 points, or 2.01%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the full week, the Sensex rose by more than 5,600 points. The Nifty gained about 1,800 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banks led the charge on Friday. The Nifty Bank index rose 2.27% to 59,086.00. It was the best sector of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mahindra & Mahindra was the biggest Sensex gainer. It rose 5.11% to \u20b93,287.20. Nifty Energy was the only weak spot, down 0.05%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The rally came at the end of a hard year. Samvat 2082 was the weakest in 15 years. The Sensex fell about 4% in the period. The Nifty lost about 3.1%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So this week felt like a sharp turnaround.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) were the biggest driver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FIIs are large overseas funds. When they buy, markets often rise quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They bought shares worth \u20b914,974.68 crore on Thursday. They added another \u20b913,749.82 crore on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
India imports most of its oil. So crude prices matter a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lower crude oil prices helps in simple ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crude prices cooled this week as hopes grew that the US\u2013Iran conflict could ease. That gave Indian markets more room to rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Friday brought a test. Global technology stocks sold off sharply, led by Wall Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Such a sell-off can drag Indian stocks down. This time, the Sensex and Nifty kept climbing and closed near the day’s highs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That showed strong local support. Foreign buying and cheaper oil outweighed the weak global mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The rally comes just before Diwali. Muhurat trading is a special one-hour session held on Diwali. Many investors see it as a good start to the new Samvat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year, the session is on Sunday, November 8, 2026. Here are the timings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All trades in this session result in settlement obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A rally this sharp can pause. That is normal after seven straight gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beginners can track a few simple signals:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Markets rarely move in a straight line. Investing in phases, such as through SIPs, can reduce the risk of buying at a peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Sensex Nifty rally ended a weak Samvat on a strong note. Foreign inflows, cheaper crude and festive optimism all played a part. The next test is whether oil stays low and foreign buying continues into the new Samvat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
