Indian benchmark indices recover to post gains on Wednesday
Mumbai, Mar 16 (IBNS) The Indian benchmark indices, which faced intense selling pressure for the greater part on Wednesday, finally closed in the positive with the Sensex up 131.31 points at 24682.48, and Nifty up 38.15 points at 7498.75.
The indices managed to overcome the losses largely due to gains in healthcare stocks, and positive global sentiments that improved with a rise in crude oil prices.
ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, HDFC, Infosys, Cipla and Lupin, were among the top gainers while Hindalco, Bajaj Auto, Sun Pharma, GAIL, Tata Steel, NTPC and ONGC were among the top losers.
