Nifty Holds Steady Above 25,700 as Realty Stocks Lift Market Mood

Summary: The Indian stock market got off to a slow but steady start. Real estate stocks led to small gains, and Nifty stayed above 25,700. 


The markets opened on a calmer note today, showing a bit of strength after last week’s swings. The Nifty 50 managed to stay above the 25,700 mark, while the Sensex inched up close to 83,970 — not a massive rally, but enough to bring some optimism back to Dalal Street. 

 

The real star of the morning? Real estate stocks. The Nifty Realty Index rose about 2%, driven by major firms such as DLF, Lodha Developers, and Godrej Properties, which all showed strong purchasing demand. Investors appear to be counting on a stronger holiday quarter and ongoing growth in the housing market. 

 

Mid-cap and small-cap stocks are also doing their bit, showing better resilience than the large-cap benchmarks. That’s usually a good sign of underlying investor confidence — even if the overall mood remains cautious.

 

For now, traders are watching whether this mild uptick can hold through the day. There’s no major trigger yet — no big global cues or policy updates — but the market seems content to take small, steady gains instead of chasing risky moves.
