Stock Market Recap: On 5 November 2026, Indian equity markets witnessed a powerful rally, extending their winning streak to six consecutive sessions as improving global cues, falling crude oil prices, and sustained foreign institutional buying fueled broad-based optimism. The Nifty surged 576 points or 2.40% to close at 24,536.60, while the Sensex soared 2,008.61 points or 2.60% to settle at 79,310.01, marking one of the strongest single-day gains in recent months. The rally was supported by easing concerns over inflation after Brent crude slipped below the $100-per-barrel mark and renewed confidence following positive global market developments.
Buying was widespread across sectors, with financials, automobiles, realty, and IT leading the advance. Bajaj Finance, Shriram Finance, Mahindra & Mahindra, Maruti Suzuki, and IndiGo emerged among the top gainers, while banking stocks also attracted strong demand as investors rotated into large-cap leaders. Broader markets participated in the upmove, with midcap and smallcap indices advancing more than 1%, reflecting healthy market breadth and improving risk appetite.
