Daily Market Wrap-Up: Bulls Take Charge as Nifty Reclaims 24,250 & Sensex Soars 889 Points (July 29, 2026)
📈 Executive Summary
Indian benchmark indices staged a sharp, broad-based rally on Wednesday, July 29, 2026. Rebounding from previous session jitters, equity markets saw strong buying across IT, Metals, FMCG, and Financials. Easing market volatility—reflected in a falling India VIX—and robust net buying by both Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) provided a strong tailwind ahead of key global macro cues.

IT Sector Expansion: Indian IT stocks extended their recovery into a third straight session following valuation reratings and broker upgrades.
Cooling Market Volatility: India VIX dropped 4.38% down to 12.01, creating a favorable trading environment for trend-following strategies.

Nifty IT (+2.32%): Led by sustained institutional accumulation in tech majors.
Nifty Metal (+2.00%+): Propelled by strong operational updates and stable commodity realizations.
