After witnessing a sharp recovery from the lower levels, Indian equity benchmark indices, the Sensex and Nifty, opened in the green on Tuesday, January 13, 2026, amid strong global cues. While the 30-share BSE Sensex gained 201.15 points to start the session at 84,079.32, the Nifty added 107.1 points to open at 25,897.35. In the last trading session, the Sensex closed at 83,878.17 and the Nifty 50 at 25,790.25. Similarly, the broader indices traded in the green in the opening session. While the BSE Midcap surged by 108.65 points, or 0.24 per cent, in the early trading session, the BSE Smallcap index was up by 153.21 points or 0.31 per cent, to trade at 49,726.96.
From the Sensex pack, Eternal, HCL Tech, TCS, HDFC Bank and Infosys were among the major gainers, with Eternal leading the pack by gaining 2.75 per cent in the early trade. On the other hand, L&T, Bajaj Finance, Indigo, Trent and Reliance were among the losers with Larsen & Toubro shedding 1.16 per cent in the opening trade.
In early trade, 1,999 stocks in the Nifty pack were trading in the green, while 461 were trading in the red. Seventy-three stocks remained unchanged.
"On the downside, 25,650/83,500 and 25,600/83,300 would act as key support zones, while 25,900-25,950/84,300-84,500 could serve as immediate resistance areas for the bulls. However, below 25,600/83,300, sentiment could change. If that happens, traders may consider exiting their long positions," said Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities.
