The Nifty closed above the 23,950 mark as easing geopolitical concerns after US President Donald Trump said a renewed war with Iran was unlikely. Meanwhile, renewed FII buying in domestic shares, a steady rupee and optimism ahead of the Q1 earnings season lifted investor sentiment. Broader markets outperformed the benchmarks. PSU banks and consumer durables stocks led the gains. IT and auto shares, however, remained under pressure.

INR pares initial losses and settles largely unchanged
The Indian rupee was largely flat and settled almost unchanged at Rs 95.43 per dollar, down just 2 paise on Wednesday, amid likely intervention from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to curb excessive volatility and prevent a further slide in the domestic unit. Rupee pared its initial losses as crude oil prices and the US dollar index retreated from their elevated levels.

The BSE Sensex ended the day at 73,983.18, up by 64.42 points (0.09%), while the NSE Nifty 50 settled at 23,214.95, slipping by 27.15 points (-0.12%).
