Indian equity markets closed higher on December 12, extending their recovery for a second consecutive session. The rebound was supported by positive global cues, even as domestic benchmarks ended the week on a negative note overall.
Market sentiment found support after Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that he had a “warm and engaging” conversation with United States President Donald Trump. The discussion covered bilateral ties and key regional issues, providing some reassurance to investors amid ongoing trade-related uncertainties.
By the end of the trading session, the Sensex rose by 449.53 points, or 0.53 percent, to close at 85,267.66. The Nifty gained 148.40 points, or 0.57 percent, finishing at 26,046.95.
