Daily Stock Market Wrap-Up & FII / DII Updates: How Markets Closed on 24 June 2026

The Daily Wrap: Bulls Roar Back as Nifty Reclaims 24,000 Amid Global Relief & Rate Optimism

It was a sensational turnaround on Dalal Street today as the bulls engineered a complete recovery from yesterday’s expiry-led flush. The market opened on a relatively flat note but rapidly gathered upward momentum through the session.

The primary catalysts for today’s market euphoria were multiple global and domestic macro tailwinds. First, global crude oil prices crashed below the $76–$77 per barrel mark, relieving fiscal pressure. Domestically, RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra provided a major psychological boost by stating that any discussions regarding interest rate hikes are entirely premature, cementing a growth-supportive stance. Added to this, high-stakes buzz surrounding a potential India-US bilateral trade agreement being finalized before late July injected fresh risk appetite across major financial and IT blocks.

1. Benchmark Indices Dashboard

Frontline indices logged substantial gains, with Bank Nifty outperforming on its weekly expiry day by surging nearly 1.7%.

Benchmark Index	Closing Level	Absolute Change	Percentage Change
NIFTY 50	24,021.65	+197.55	+0.83%
BSE SENSEX	76,991.22	+790.54	+1.04%
NIFTY BANK	58,150.00	+966.25	+1.69%

Broader Market Summary: Frontline heavyweights did the heavy lifting today. The broader markets underperformed relatively but stayed positive: the Nifty Midcap index ticked up by 0.1%, while the Nifty Smallcap index gained about 0.4%, indicating highly selective institutional positioning.

2. Institutional Flow Analysis (FII & DII)

The institutional landscape today showcased a powerful display of domestic absorption. While offshore funds continued their defensive scaling down, massive localized liquidity stepped up to entirely overwhelm the selling pressure.

• FII Selling Persists: Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs/FPIs) maintained their recent liquidation streak in the cash segment, logging a net provisional outflow of -₹1,541.08 crores.
• DIIs Flood the Market with Capital: Acting as the absolute anchor of the day’s massive 790-point Sensex surge, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) forcefully pushed the buy side with an impressive net cash inflow of +₹2,715.17 crores.

3. Sectoral Superstars & Market Movers

Financial and technology counters led from the front, reversing yesterday’s steep sectoral damage.

• Banking Powerhouses Lead the Expiry: On the day of its weekly expiry, the banking sector went into overdrive. ICICI Bank (+2.65% to close at ₹1,373.80) and HDFC Bank (+1.98% to close at ₹790.00) emerged as the topmost index drivers. Axis Bank and SBI followed closely with gains of over 1.2% each.
• IT & Realty Join the Party: Nifty IT and Nifty Realty both expanded by roughly 2% each. Tech heavyweights like Infosys and TCS witnessed short-covering loops following yesterday’s multi-percentage drops.
• Insurance Under Pressure: Conversely, insurance companies acted as a major pocket of drag. SBI Life Insurance (-1.79%) and HDFC Life Insurance (-1.66%) closed deep in the red, seeing tactical long unwinding.
• Corporate Trigger: Bajaj Auto slid over 2% intraday following emerging reports of a ransomware attack affecting specific operational segments.

4. Technical Outlook & Tomorrow’s Plan

By closing decisively above 24,000, Nifty has neutralized yesterday’s bearish engulfing layout and reclaimed its structural ascending channel.

The Takeaway: Reclaiming the 24,000 psychological milestone turns the daily immediate bias back to range-bound positive. For tomorrow’s session, the immediate pivot floor moves up to 23,950, with an ultimate structural safety base positioned at 23,800. On the upside, if the index maintains momentum beyond 24,080, it will trigger a fresh wave of call-writer unwinding towards 24,200. For Bank Nifty, holding the newly reclaimed 58,000 horizontal support zone is paramount to sustain this bullish expiry extension.
