On October 15, 2025, Indian stock markets closed higher, supported by positive global cues and a drop in crude oil prices. The Sensex rose 575.45 points, or 0.70%, to settle at 82,605.43, while the Nifty gained 178.05 points, or 0.71%, to end at 25,323.55.
Experts noted that the Nifty opened on a firm note and maintained a higher-high, higher-low structure throughout the session, signaling sustained bullish momentum. The market entered a short-term distribution phase, with consistent selling pressure near the 25,400 resistance zone. However, a decisive breakout above this level could set the stage for a rally toward 25,600-26,000, supported by encouraging Q2 earnings momentum.
Broader markets outperformed the benchmarks, with the Nifty MidCap 100 index rising 1.11% and the Nifty SmallCap 100 index up 0.82%. Sector-wise, barring Nifty Media, all other sectoral indices ended in the green, led by the Nifty Realty index, which gained 3.04%. The Nifty PSU Bank, Metal, and Financial Services indices also rose over 1% each.
Analysts attributed the market's upward momentum to easing crude prices and steady global markets, which helped improve investor confidence. Strong domestic participation and a momentum shift in FIIs to emerging markets like India also supported the market's trajectory in the short to medium term.
