Indian benchmarks extended their rebound on Wednesday, with Nifty climbing 0.7% to 25,750 and Sensex up 0.8% to 84,000, fueled by strong Q3 earnings from manufacturing and textile sectors amid FII inflows (₹2,500 Cr net buy). At least 50 scrips hit upper price bands (mostly 20%), suspending sells as volumes swelled on institutional buying. This flips recent volatility, adding ₹2,500 Cr in value to leaders like Gokex (up 20% to ₹832.85 on textile demand), Sfl (rising 14.5% to ₹599.50 amid fashion export buzz), and Faze3q (up 20% to ₹529.90 on apparel growth).
The uptick signals optimism in capex-heavy sectors, with mid-caps leading. Volumes rose 15%, advancers dominating 2:1. Analysts see momentum if PMI beats, targeting Nifty 26,000.
