Why Market is Rising Today? The key benchmark indices posted some handsome gains in the early session on October 18 on the back of strong global cues. Sensex jumped over 700 points on Tuesday amid positive global cues. The market capitalisation of all listed companies on BSE jumped over Rs 2.22 lakh crore to Rs 273.96 lakh crore.
