Sensex gains 700 points: Why is stock market rising today?

Stock markets witnessed a strong rally in the afternoon session on Monday, with both benchmark indices rising nearly 1%. The S&P BSE Sensex climbed 666.15 points to close at 80,523.94, while the NSE Nifty advanced 211.30 points to settle at 24, uptrend was led by public sector banking and auto sector stocks. Banking stocks were in focus after State Bank of India (SBI) posted strong Q1 results, which prompted positive commentary from brokerages. Auto stocks also contributed to the gains, supported by optimism in the sector.'Market is slowly trying to digest the tariffs. After three weeks of downtrend, the market was able to sustain in today's rally. Asian markets are also supporting, and we can see some kind of buying interest that emerged after a brief pause,' said Kranti Bathini, Equity Strategist at WealthMills Securities Pvt Ltd."One thing is the market was able to close decisively around the zone of 24,500. That's where the buying interest has rebounded in the market. That is the reason we are seeing some renewed buying above 24,500 levels of Nifty," he the Sensex, Tata Motors led the rally with a gain of 3.14%, followed by Eternal up 2.86%, Trent up 2.77%, SBI up 2.42%, and UltraTech Cement up 2.02%. The laggards included ICICI Bank, down 0.19%, Bharat Electronics lower by 0.09%, Bharti Airtel down 0.04%, Tech Mahindra slipping 0.17%, and Bajaj Finserv easing 0.18%.The broader market also ended higher. Nifty Midcap 100 gained 0.33% and Nifty Smallcap 100 rose 0.17%. India VIX, which measures market volatility, dropped 2.27%. Among sectoral indices, Nifty PSU Bank surged 2.21%, Nifty Realty advanced 1.94%, Nifty Healthcare Index rose 1.26%, and both Nifty Auto and Nifty Pharma gained 1.02% each.

Nifty Consumer Durables was the only major loser, slipping 0.69%.Strong domestic fund inflows also supported the rally. Data from the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) showed that net inflows into equity mutual fund schemes jumped 81% month-on-month to Rs 42,702 crore in July, as investors used the recent market dip caused by US-India trade tensions and muted corporate earnings as a buying under management in the mutual fund industry touched a record Rs 75.36 trillion. Contributions through systematic investment plans (SIPs) rose to a record Rs 28,464 crore, with the number of SIP accounts increasing to 91.1 million from 86.4 million in June.'Domestic investors remain steadfast in the India growth story, viewing US tariff tensions as a temporary headwind.

GPT-5 is here! Risk or opportunity— What does it mean for IT services companies? Kotak Securities weighs in

OpenAI has recently launched GPT-5, its latest generative AI model, which may accelerate adoption among enterprises. According to brokerage firm Kotak Securities, this could reduce IT firms' revenue but also create new opportunities in cloud foundation and legacy modernisation. "OpenAI's GPT-5 may accelerate the adoption of GenAI (generative AI) in software development, exposing IT services firms to revenue deflation risks, but it is also a step forward in opening up new opportunities from (1) cloud and data foundation, (2) legacy modernisation and (3) AI for business use cases," said Kotak Securities. The brokerage firm highlighted that GPT-5 offers a meaningful improvement in reasoning and coding tasks, even though it might not present a step-jump in capabilities. "GPT-5 claims significant advances in reducing hallucinations, improving instruction following, and minimising sycophancy, while levelling up performance in three of ChatGPT's most common uses: writing, coding and health," said Kotak. AI will increase generative AI adoption among enterprises, primarily due to their willingness and focus on adopting generative AI in software development. "Given (1) the focus of AI labs to increase coding capabilities, (2) the willingness of enterprises to adopt generative AI in software development, (3) the increasing developer usage of generative AI tools and (4) the higher focus of enterprises to get productivity from AI adoption, we believe that the adoption of generative AI in software development will increase and present revenue deflation risks for IT services providers," said Kotak. The brokerage firm said that new opportunities from generative AI adoption will offset revenue deflation in existing volumes over time. Nevertheless, Kotak expects a lag in the pickup of new opportunities and for savings in software development to be deployed into these new opportunities, leading to a period of net headwinds. "We believe gen AI can impact revenue growth for Indian IT by 2-3 per cent for a period of two to three years on a net basis. Our current revenue growth assumptions build in some portion of this impact already," said Kotak. Read all market-related news here Disclaimer: This story is for educational purposes only.
