After a subdued start, the domestic benchmark indices rebounded with bullish momentum. On Wednesday, the Sensex surged by 271 points, closing at 71,657. NSE's Nifty50, on the other hand, gained ground during the day and concluded at 21,618, reflecting an increase of nearly 73 points.

Nifty IT maintained its positive trajectory, buoyed by the anticipation of quarterly results by key IT giants scheduled for Thursday. The IT index recorded a gain of 171 points, concluding the day at 34,834.

"Sector-wise it was a mixed bag with buying seen in Media, IT, Metals, and Consumer Durable stocks. Niche sectors like railway stocks were in focus on the back of an increase in the government’s spending on railway infrastructure," said Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.
