Indian benchmark indices jumped 1.7% on Tuesday and firmly raced up following the long haul of losses last week. The BSE Sensex rose 872 points to 52,469, and the NSE Nifty gained 262 points to 15,610. “Markets were technically in oversold territory and thus witnessed a bounce back, especially in a light market since US markets were closed yesterday. There is an increased perception that by the end of the year, the US Fed will be able to get inflation levels down considerably, which is also helping the markets currently,” said Nishit Master, Portfolio Manager, Axis Securities.
Benchmark indices ended higher for the second consecutive session on June 21 with Nifty finishing above 15,600. The Sensex was up 934.23 points or 1.81% at 52,532.07, and the Nifty was up 288.60 points or 1.88% at 15,638.80. Titan Company, Hindalco Industries, JSW Steel, Coal India and Adani Ports were among the top Nifty gainers. The only losers is Apollo Hospitals. All the sectoral indices ended in the green with IT, metal, oil & gas, power, realty and PSU Bank up 3-6 per cent. BSE Midcap index jumped 2.4 per cent and Smallcap index was up 3 per cent.
Oil prices rose on Tuesday on high summer fuel demand while supplies remain tight because of sanctions on Russian oil after its invasion of Ukraine. Brent crude rose $1.61, or 1.4%, to $115.74 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude for July, which expires later on Tuesday, rose $2.29, or 2.1%, to $111.85. The more-active WTI contract for August was up $2.48 at $110.47 a barrel.
Benchmark indices erased some of the intraday gains but still trading higher with Nifty holding above 15600. The Sensex was up 913.16 points or 1.77% at 52,511.00, and the Nifty was up 279.50 points or 1.82% at 15,629.70.
"Fall in crude oil prices, positive global cues, bottom fishing and technical setup ripe for a bounce are the reasons for the rise in the markets today. 15670-15740 could be a near term resistance for the Nifty. Investors can ride this bounce through trading in oversold stocks and prepare a list of stocks that they would like to offload in this bounce to raise cash. Sell on rise is a good strategy to follow unless we see signs of inflation stabilising and reversing globally which can be an early sign of bottom formation."

The domestic steel production was at its highest at 113.6 million tonnes in FY22 (up from 96.2 million tonnes in FY21), an increase of 18.1% (y-o-y) on account of the revival in economic activities and low-base effect. During April and May 2022, the production grew by 9.1% to 9.6 million tonnes as compared to the same period of FY22. The robust steel demand outlook is likely to lead to continued high-capacity utilisation for the sector over the medium term. CareEdge Research expects domestic demand for steel to remain robust in near term mainly because of Government’s infrastructure push and increased investments amid an overall rebound in the Indian economy. The recent announcement by Government on imposition of export duty will lead to a de-growth in exports from India for FY22. CareEdge
