Equity benchmark indices traded higher during early hours on Tuesday as the government's decision to vaccinate every citizen above the age of 18 years against COVID-19 from May 1 buoyed investor sentiment.
At 10:15 am, the BSE S and P Sensex was up by 269 points or 0.65 per cent at 48,218 while the Nifty 50 edged higher by 100 points or 0.7 per cent to 14,460.
Except for Nifty IT which dipped marginally, all sectoral indices at the National Stock Exchange were in the green with Nifty PSU bank gaining by 2.1 per cent, private bank by 1.2 per cent, financial service by 1.1 per cent, auto by 1.4 per cent and realty by 1 per cent.
Among stocks, Bajaj Finance ticked up by 4.3 per cent to Rs 4,662.10 per share and Bajaj Finserv by 4 per cent.
Market pressure persisted for the third consecutive session as key indices, including Sensex, Nifty, and Nifty Bank, witnessed notable declines. The midcap index closed in the red despite performing relatively better. Geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel contributed to the market downturn. US stock futures dipped after major benchmarks suffered losses, while European and Asia-Pacific markets also experienced significant drops.

As the trading session commenced on April 19th, both the Sensex and the Nifty continued their downward trend for the fifth consecutive day, fueled by reports of Israel's recent missile launch on Iran. This event triggered a surge in oil and gold prices, heightening concerns about the global economy. Concurrently, the commencement of Lok Sabha elections added to the domestic landscape. The Indian rupee also opened at a historic low of 83.55 per Dollar.
