Markets settle higher after two days of fall
Mumbai: Benchmark indices ended in the green on Friday after falling for the past two days, helped by continuous buying from foreign institutional investors and a largely positive trend in Asian and European markets.
The 30-share BSE Sensex climbed 113.95 points or 0.19 per cent to settle at 60,950.36.
Similarly, the broader NSE Nifty ended 64.45 points or 0.36 per cent higher at 18,117.15.
From the Sensex pack, Bajaj Finserv, Tata Steel, UltraTech Cement, State Bank of India, Reliance Industries, Asian Paints, Bajaj Finance and Wipro were among the winners.
Dr Reddy’s, Hindustan Unilever Limited, Infosys, HDFC Bank and NTPC were among the losers.
