The GIFT Nifty April 2026 futures currently traded 79.50 points higher, suggesting a green opening for the benchmark index today.
Institutional Flows:
Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) sold shares worth Rs 1,918.99 crore, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) were net buyers to the tune of Rs 2,221.27 crore in the Indian equity market on 21 April 2026, provisional data showed.

Global Markets:
Asian markets traded mixed on Wednesday even after President Donald Trump extended a U.S. ceasefire with Iran.
Based on the fact that the Government of Iran is seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so and, upon the request of Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our Attack on the Country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal,' Trump reportedly said in a social media post.
He added that the ceasefire would be extended until Tehran submitted a proposal or discussions were concluded, and that the U.S. military would continue its blockade of Iranian ports.
However, the timeline remains uncertain. Negotiators from Tehran said they wouldn't attend the talks with the U.S., calling them a 'waste of time,' Iranian state media reported on Wednesday.
The uncertainty also delayed Vice President JD Vance's trip to join peace talks, according to media reports.
Meanwhile, Japan's Nikkei 225 rose to a new record of 59,691 following the release of its latest trade data. The country's exports rose for a seventh straight month, posting a trade surplus of 667 billion yen ($4.18 billion) in March, compared with a surplus of 1.1 trillion yen widely reported forecast.
Overnight on Wall Street, stocks dropped on Tuesday as investors grew concerned that a peace deal between the U.S. and Iran would not be struck ahead of a ceasefire that's set to expire Wednesday.
The S&P 500 closed down 0.63% at 7,064.01, while the Nasdaq Composite settled 0.59% lower at 24,259.96. The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 293.18 points, or 0.59%, to finish at 49,149.38.
Domestic Market:
Domestic benchmark indices powered ahead for a third straight session on Tuesday, driven by broad-based buying and firmer global cues. Sentiment lifted sharply after reports of fresh US-Iran talks rekindled hopes of easing geopolitical tensions, while cooling crude oil prices added fuel to the rally.
The Nifty surged past the 24,550 mark, with FMCG and private banking stocks leading the charge. Banking stocks advanced after the RBI relaxed forex restrictions. Small-cap stocks outpaced the broader market.
Investors are now turning their attention to Q4 earnings, while closely monitoring developments in the US-Iran conflict, crude oil prices and currency trends for near-term cues.
The S&P BSE Sensex jumped 753.03 points or 0.96% to 79,273.33. The Nifty 50 index advanced 211.75 points or 0.87% to 24,576.60. In the three consecutive trading sessions, the Sensex and Nifty jumped 1.65% and 1.57%, respectively.
