The Indian markets on Friday were able to recoup from yesterday’s losses and snapped the seven days losing streak by gaining over 2 per cent. This was mainly driven by a recovery in global markets and buying across the sectors including PSU Bank, power, metal and realty. However, the number of stocks hitting the lower circuit remained higher than those hitting the upper circuit.
The Sensex was up 1,328.61 points or 2.44% and closed at 55,858.52 levels. The NIfty 50 index was up 410.40 points or 2.53% closing at 16,658.40.
