The market rebounded during the early hours of trade on Thursday but trimmed its gains in the last hour before closing.

Investors in Indian pharma stocks are concerned about media reports that say that the US government is making it mandatory for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) to be manufactured locally; the decision is likely to impact drug exports.

Among the leading companies that made it to the gainers' list are Vedanta. Cairn India, Tata Motors, Hindalco and ONGC. Companies that saw a dip in their share prices were Lupin, NTPC, Cipla, Bajaj Auto and SBI.
