Post Market Commentary

The market closed at all time high after struggling a lot at the initial stage. The cues from the global market are not in favor, which led the Indian markets to open on a weak note on the back of heavy selling across the counters. Though the market lost the ground at the initial stage but manages to recover all its losses as a result of heavy buying at lower levels. The metal, realty and Oil and Gas indices remained the centre of attraction as most buying is seen from these stocks. The BSE Sensex closed higher by 84.98 points at 20,375.87 and NSE Nifty closed up by 62.05 points at 6,159.30. Both the BSE Mid cap and Small cap outperformed the benchmark to close higher by 152.51 points and 217.15 points at 9,339.49 and 11,884.99 respectively.
