Sensex Rises 473 Points as Nifty Reclaims 22,500

Indian share markets went up on Monday after falling in recent days.

The Sensex gained about 473 points, and the Nifty finished above 22,500.

Consumer goods, banking and other shares helped lift the markets.

Investors were also encouraged by positive signals from other countries and easing concerns about oil supplies.

Softer US jobs data reduced worries that the US central bank would raise interest rates aggressively.

Still, overseas investors were selling shares, and the rupee was weak.

Analysts said the rise could be a short-term bounce, so they are watching what happens next.
