On Monday, the Nifty, India's benchmark index, scaled a new historic peak, reaching an impressive 20,008.
This remarkable achievement marks a significant milestone in the Indian financial landscape.
It's worth noting that the Nifty doubled its value, surging from 10,000 to the coveted 20,000 level, a journey spanning six years. This surge signifies robust growth and bodes well for riskier asset classes, particularly equities.
Today, Indian share markets are trading on a mixed note with the Sensex trading lower by 38 points at the time of writing, while the Nifty is trading 23 points lower.
L&T and TCS are the top gainers from the Sensex, while Power Grid and HUL are the top losers.

Here’s a rundown of today’s expected market movements…
In response to this bullish momentum, the Nifty concluded the day with a substantial gain of 176 points, accompanied by a Sensex surge of 528 points.
Virtually all major sectoral indices participated in this positive ascent, with PSU Banks notably shining by rallying over 3%.
From a technical standpoint, the Nifty has displayed an encouraging bullish candle on the daily charts, underpinned by a consistent pattern of higher highs and higher lows on the intraday charts. These technical indicators are strongly positive.
For traders following market trends, the levels of 19900-19850 stand as pivotal support.
Breaking above this level could propel the index to 20100-20175 in the near term and potentially to 20400-20500 in the medium term.
Conversely, a drop below 19800 may prompt a rapid intraday correction to 19700-19650.
In the event of a correction to the 19900-19850 level, the suggested strategy is to consider buying Nifty. Maintain a prudent stop loss at 19800.
However, between the 20100 and 20400 levels, it's advisable to partially realise profits on investments or reduce overexposure to equities.
