For both investors and the general public, the Indian stock market is a constant source of fascinating happenings. The Sensex and Nifty 50 both had steady performance today, November 13, 2025. Investors booked some dividends before the 2025 Bihar election results, despite the market’s recent rise. The Nifty 50 ended at 25,879.15, while the Sensex ended at 84,478.67, up just 12 points. The BSE Midcap and Smallcap indices dropped by 0.34 and 0.30 percent, respectively, indicating that mid- and small-cap stocks underperformed.
The Main Market Trends of Today
In the first session of the day, the Nifty 50 hit 26,010.70, and the Sensex achieved an intraday high of 84,919.43, but dividend booking ahead of the Bihar election results stabilized these gains. The majority of market analysts predict that the NDA will continue to rule Bihar. However, prior experience indicates that exit polls are not always reliable, and real findings could cause investors to temporarily sell.
A possible rebalancing at the Center might cause the Nifty 50 to drop by 5-7 percent if the NDA loses the Bihar elections, according to trading firm Incred Equities. According to Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Investments, investors kept the index by booking dividends in the face of ongoing withdrawals from overseas investors and a weak rupee.
Gainers and Losers in the Top Nifty 50
Eternal, Tata Motors CV, and Mahindra & Mahindra were the greatest losers on the Nifty 50 today, while Asian Paints, Hindalco Industries, and InterGlobe Aviation were the top gainers. Twenty-nine equities ended the day down.
Performance of Sectoral Indexes
The performance of sectoral indicators was inconsistent. The Nifty Metal, Realty, and Pharma sectors increased while the Nifty PSU Bank, Media, FMCG, IT, and Auto sectors decreased.
Active Shares and Volume
The most active equities on the NSE were Tata Steel, Billionbrains Garage Ventures, and Vodafone Idea. On the BSE, eight stocks had gains of more than 15%, including Precision Wires and Vindhya Telelinks.
Technical Prospects
Experts predict that the Nifty 50 will find quick support in the 25,760–25,730 range. It might drop to 25,560 if it drops below 25,730. However, the 26,000–26,030 range will serve as a barrier, and a rise to 26,180 is conceivable if the Nifty is above 26,030. The 20-day SMA provides crucial support at the 25,750 level.
