Sensex Rebounds, Nifty Gains Modestly Amid Mixed Global Cues
Indian share prices mostly went up on Friday.
The Sensex, a major group of Indian stocks, gained 362 points.
This ended its four-day run of falling prices.
The Nifty also rose, but only a little.
Metal, banking, and oil and gas companies helped lift the market.
Investors felt less worried about an immediate US Federal Reserve rate hike.
However, some investors sold shares after prices rose, limiting the gains.
Tensions in the Middle East also made investors cautious.
Foreign investors sold shares, while domestic institutions bought more shares.
The BSE Sensex rose 362.57 points, or 0.48%, to close at 76,515.43, ending a four-day losing streak.
The NSE Nifty gained 24.25 points, or 0.10%, to settle at 23,897.70 after briefly crossing 24,000.
Tata Steel, Reliance Industries, Bajaj Finance, and HDFC Bank were among the major gainers.
Bharti Airtel and HCL Technologies were among the notable laggards.
Foreign Institutional Investors sold equities worth Rs 2,345.87 crore, while Domestic Institutional Investors bought Rs 4,977.46 crore.
