Stock Market India: Equity benchmarks rose modestly on Friday to close at a record high for the second day in a row.
Indian equity benchmarks rose modestly on Friday to close at a record high for the second day in a row after see-sawing through the session, marking the fourth straight day of gains driven by expectations the Federal Reserve would ease the pace of its aggressive tightening as early as next month.
The BSE Sensex index rose 20.96 points to close at a new record high of 62,293.64, and the broader NSE Nifty index also ended at a new all-time high of 18,512.75, up 0.15 per cent, a day after both benchmarks had closed at a lifetime high.
The Sensex index also hit a record intra-day high of 62,447.73 on Friday, breaching its previous best of 62,245.43 in October last year.
Both benchmarks also marked gains for the fourth straight session on Friday.
