March 11, 2026 – Indian benchmarks closed with modest gains, the Nifty 50 settling 0.3% higher at 24,310 and the Sensex up 200 points above 79,400, driven by selective buying in energy and pharma amid DII support of ₹1,200 crore that cushioned FII outflows. Metals and infra themes sparked renewed interest post-dip, offsetting auto sector drags.
