Yes Bank and IDFC First Bank Among Top Traded Stocks on NSE Today

Indian Stock Market Report - February 26, 2026

The Indian stock market experienced significant intraday volatility on Thursday, February 26, amidst mixed global cues. The Sensex rose by over 300 points during the morning session but failed to sustain gains, dropping nearly 150 points in intraday trade. The Nifty 50 touched an intraday high and low of 25,573 and 25,447, respectively.

The domestic market has been experiencing "sell-on-rise" and "buy-on-dips" trends lately, indicating market instability. However, the return of foreign institutional investors (FIIs) after seven months is a positive factor for the market. FIIs have bought Indian stocks worth ₹4,361 crore in the cash segment in February so far.
