India’s stock market moved up last week, with eight of the top ten companies adding Rs. 1.90 lakh crore in total value. The rise came mainly from strong performance in banking stocks, where ICICI Bank stood out as the biggest gainer.
The broader market showed a steady upward trend during the week. The BSE Sensex rose by 1,284 points, which equals a 1.73% gain. The NSE Nifty also increased by 256 points, showing about 1% growth.
Positive global news supported the market mood. Hopes around a possible US-Iran peace deal helped reduce worries about global tensions. At the same time, steps taken by the Reserve Bank of India improved liquidity and supported investor confidence.
Among the top firms, ICICI Bank recorded the highest jump in value. Its market capitalization increased by Rs. 56,223 crore, taking its total value to Rs. 9.61 lakh crore. HDFC Bank also showed strong growth with an addition of Rs. 38,571 crore. State Bank of India followed with a rise of Rs. 36,138 crore.
Other companies also recorded gains during the week. Bajaj Finance gained Rs. 18,367 crore, while Bharti Airtel added Rs. 14,380 crore. Larsen & Toubro saw an increase of Rs. 13,241 crore. Hindustan Unilever also moved up by Rs. 10,984 crore.
Reliance Industries remained the most valuable company in India. It added Rs. 2,098 crore and kept its top position in the list.
Two companies recorded declines during the week. Tata Consultancy Services lost Rs. 13,296 crore in value, showing weakness in IT stocks. Life Insurance Corporation of India also saw a small drop of Rs. 822 crore.
The latest rise shows strong confidence in banking and financial stocks. Stable global signals and RBI support may keep the stock market steady, although some sectors still face pressure.
The market also ended a recent losing phase and returned to gains. Banking stocks continue to lead, while IT and insurance stocks show slower movement.
