Key drivers behind the rally included gains in heavyweight stocks, firm Q4 results from top corporates, and a rebound in global market sentiment. Buying was seen across sectors, especially in banking, IT, auto, and FMCG.

This rally follows last week’s robust uptrend where indices gained on the back of strong quarterly earnings and FII inflows.

Market analysts expect volatility to rise later this week due to the scheduled derivatives expiry, upcoming macroeconomic data, and global market cues such as US Fed statements and China’s trade data.
