It was a remarkable day of trading on Dalal Street, not merely due to the Nifty surging by 1.80 percent on Monday, but also owing to the extraordinary performance of the index heavyweight, Reliance Industries, which soared by over 7 per cent, marking its highest single-day gain in the past couple of years.

This robust upswing propelled the stock's market capitalization to an impressive Rs 19,59,471 crore.
