  "account": "On 25th August 2026, the Bombay Stock Exchange's Sensex rose 287 points to close at a record high of 77,656.09. The index maintained its strength through the session, supported by broad-based buying in select heavyweight stocks. Nifty 50 also gained 116 points, settling at 24,334.55, reclaiming the psychologically important 24,300 level. The Nifty remains strong, trading around 24,150, with no follow-through buying after a rebound on Monday. Investors assessed the impact of escalating tensions in the West Asia region, Iran's pledge to retaliate against US economic sanctions, and India's expected weak monsoon on the market. The rupee strengthened by 24 paise to 95.46 against the US dollar, buoyed by positive domestic markets and falling crude oil prices.",
