<h1>Robust Market Rally Propels Sensex and Nifty Higher on Significant Rate Cut and Strong Foreign Investment</h1> Stock markets experienced a significant surge in early trading, driven by a global market rally and the Reserve Bank's substantial 50 basis point rate cut. The Sensex jumped 480.01 points to 82,669, while the Nifty rose 157.05 points to 25,160.10. Banking, automotive, and technology stocks led gains. Foreign institutional investors bought equities worth Rs 1,009.71 crore, and market analysts suggest the rate cut could boost economic sentiment, though sustained growth depends on earnings performance.
