India's benchmark indices staged a sharp rebound in early trade on Thursday, 15 October 2026, with the BSE Sensex climbing more than 1,000 points, according to NDTV. The rally came despite negative signals from global markets.
The Nifty50 moved above 22,900 during the session, the Times of India reported. Moneycontrol put the Sensex gain at as much as 1,400 points at one stage, with the Nifty reclaiming the 23,000 mark.
Buying in information technology and financial shares was cited among the main drivers of the move, according to Moneycontrol. The Hindu reported that IT firms led the rebound in early trade.
The advance marks a turnaround for the indices, which opened higher after a weak global backdrop. The Times of India described the session as a rally, while the Economic Times said the surge had shifted momentum back toward buyers. The exact reasons behind the rise were still being assessed by market participants as trading continued.
Investors will watch whether the gains hold through the session or fade later in the day, and whether IT and financial stocks continue to attract buying.
