Domestic Equity Markets Bounce Back on Tuesday, April 21
The Indian stock market closed on a strong note on Tuesday, April 21, rebounding from a sluggish start as gains in FMCG stocks bolstered the benchmark indices amidst cautious optimism regarding ongoing geopolitical issues.

Investors remained attentive to global indicators, particularly the anticipated second round of discussions between the United States and Iran in Pakistan, expected to occur later in the day. Analysts mentioned that investor mood was buoyed by hopes of a potential near-term easing of tensions in the Middle East.
The Gift Nifty Live Chart showed a negative start for the Indian stock market today, trading around the 24,459 level, a discount of 126 points from the Nifty futures' previous close of 24,584.50.
