Sensex and Nifty Open Higher on Easing Oil Prices and RBI Support Measures
Indian stock markets opened higher on October 12, 2026, following a sharp rebound on Friday that ended an eight-week losing streak. Gains were supported by easing crude oil prices after a reported Russia-Ukraine energy ceasefire and fresh Reserve Bank of India measures to support the rupee. While the Sensex and Nifty showed positive momentum, persistent foreign institutional selling and elevated global bond yields posed challenges. Investors remained cautious amid mixed Asian market cues and upcoming US earnings and inflation data.
