  "account": "HCL Technologies' impressive quarter ignited a broad-based rally in Indian equities on Tuesday, propelling the Nifty into its steepest single-day gain since June 12. The Nifty 50 surged to 22,721.95, up 1.60 percent, while the Sensex climbed 1,109.10 points to 73,033.78. The Bank Nifty and Nifty IT also saw significant gains, with the Nifty IT index soaring over 5 percent. Strong quarterly earnings driven by AI-driven deals from HCL Technologies and TCS fueled the surge. Market sentiment improved amid positive budget consultations and the Reserve Bank of India's measures to curb speculative forex activity. The rupee also strengthened against the dollar.",
