Tue Jan 07 14:30:28 IST 2025: ## Indian Stock Market Rebounds After Monday’s Sharp Decline
**Mumbai, India** – After a dramatic crash on Monday, the Indian stock market is showing signs of recovery on Tuesday. Monday’s trading session saw the Sensex and Nifty indices plummet, wiping out nearly ₹9 lakh crore (approximately $108 billion USD) in investor wealth. The sharp decline, attributed to concerns over a new Chinese HMPV virus variant and profit-booking, followed a positive opening. The Sensex closed down 1258.12 points (1.59%), ending at 77,964.99, while the Nifty fell 388.70 points (1.62%), closing at 23,616.05. Several major stocks, including Tata Steel, NTPC, Kotak Bank, and Reliance, experienced significant losses.
However, Tuesday’s trading is showing a positive trend. Asian markets are largely up, with Japan’s Nikkei rising over 2% and South Korea’s Kospi gaining more than 1%. The GIFT Nifty, an indicator of the Nifty 50 index, is also trading higher by over 60 points. Furthermore, the US markets, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 closing in positive territory, are also contributing to the positive sentiment. Both the BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty opened in the green on Tuesday, suggesting a potential rebound.
Monday’s losses followed a period of strong growth. While initially showing gains, the market experienced a sudden and sharp reversal, with 28 of the BSE’s 30 large-cap stocks ending the day in the red.
