Post MARKET
Indian benchmark indices ended sharply higher on June 15, extending gains from the previous session, as easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East led to a decline in crude oil prices and lifted investor sentiment.
Sectorally, barring healthcare and pharma, all major indices ended in the green. The Nifty Realty index outperformed, rising nearly 4 percent, while the auto, metal and consumer durables indices gained around 2 percent each.
The broader markets also participated in the rally, with the Nifty Midcap 100 and Nifty Smallcap 100 indices advancing 1 percent each.
