| September 14, 2011 | 5:30 PM | Sensex discounts high inflation, rises 242 points on IT support Tremendous gains in the IT stocks helped the Indian markets to close the trade on a buoyant note, snapping three-day of losses. The Sensex rose 242 points and the Nifty gained 72 points | | | | | | Major headlines | | Indian indices The Indian markets registered smart gains today with major support coming in from technology, metal, banking and auto stocks. Buying interest in heavyweights like JP Associates, Infosys, Wipro, HDFC Bank, RIL, TCS and ICICI Bank lifted the markets. Gains in European stocks further provided support. Rise in inflation in the month of August was discounted by the market. The markets closed the session on a strong note, snapping three-day of losses. Sensex movements: The Sensex began 55 points higher at 16523 and suddenly turned negative. Weakness in the Asian stocks and some selling pressure dragged the index to day's low of 16387 in the mid-morning session. Later, the index started to move higher tracking positive European cues and strong buying interest in technology stocks to hit the day's high of 16754. The Sensex stood 242 points higher at 16710 and the Nifty rose 72 points to close at 5013. Market sentiment The market breadth was in favour of advances.
