Indian benchmark indices end as gainers for third successive day
While Sensex ended the day at a fresh 52-week closing high, Nifty failed to retain its psychological 8800-mark reached during intraday trade and for the first time since April 15, 2015.
Key stocks that gained on Wednesday were ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, ITC, Sun Pharma, HDFC, Hero Motocorp and Asian Paints while TCS, Lupin, ONGC, HUL, NTPC and Tata Steel ended among the losers.
RBL Bank, the first Indian bank to be listed in six years, made a stellar debut on Wednesday, with the stock surging nearly 36 per cent to Rs 305.50 against its issue price of Rs 225, according to media reports.
