Market wrap: HCL Tech, TCS, Kotak Bank, Eternal top gainers and losers on Nifty and Sensex on Tuesday

Indian equity markets rallied over 1.5% on Tuesday, with the Sensex rising 1,109 points and the Nifty 50 gaining 358 points.

IT stocks led the advance, with HCL Tech and TCS topping the gainers’ lists, while Kotak Mahindra Bank, Eternal, and Maruti Suzuki were among the notable laggards.

The rally was driven by strong corporate earnings and positive global cues, but investors are also cautious ahead of key economic data releases.
