Nifty trades near 23,290 mark; realty shares climb

17-Sep-2026 | 10:41
The key equity benchmarks traded with moderate gains in morning trade as investors assessed the US Federal Reserve?s latest policy decision and its implications for global liquidity. The Fed?s 25-basis-point rate hike, which took the benchmark rate to 3.75%-4%, kept risk appetite subdued, while a stronger dollar continued to weigh on Asian currencies, including the rupee.

The Fed?s indication of another rate hike in 2026 is likely to keep investors cautious, particularly in rate-sensitive and foreign-portfolio-investment-driven segments. However, buying interest in select domestic sectors provided some support. The Nifty traded near 23,290 mark. Market participants are likely to track currency movements, US bond yields and foreign fund flows for further direction.
