| September 04, 2012 | 5:30 PM | Markets close with mild gains on support from heavyweights The Indian markets managed to end today's trading session in the green territory after staging a smart comeback in the afternoon session due to gains in heavyweights. The Sensex closed 59 points higher while the Nifty rose 23 points. | | | | | | Major headlines | | Indian indices The Indian indices opened today's session on a flat note tracking weak Asian cues and selling pressure across the market. The markets were trading with no major action in stocks in the first half, which left investors calmly watch the show. Further, in the afternoon session weak opening of the European indices also weighed on the market sentiments. There was a bounce back in the late afternoon session as majority of the sectors were under buyers radar led by intensified buying in the index heavyweights. The broader markets too ended the trade on a positive note. The NSE Nifty managed to close above 5250 level while BSE Sensex inched towards 17450. Movement of the Indian indices for the day The Indian markets started today's trade on a flat note for the second consecutive session due to lack of local and Asian cues. Black clouds were hovering on the Dalal Street for most part of the day as the equities witnessed gloomy trading sessions. The key indices hit their intraday low levels at 17308.27 and intraday high at 17452.70 in the afternoon session. | | INDEX PERFORMANCE |  | | | | | MARKET INDICATORS |  | | | | | | Indiabulls Real Estate | 45.25 | 7.61 | | Torrent Power | 157.45 | 6.89 | | Opto Circuits | 127.85 | 6.81 | | | Astrazeneca Pharma | 1,796.70 | -3.25 | | Castrol India | 284.50 | -3.20 | | Bajaj Holdings | 751.00 | -2.33 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Markets took a breather as frontline Indian equity benchmarks staged a spirited comeback in the mid-afternoon trade led by strong buying across the board. The Indian equity benchmarks witnessed a reversal trend in trade today, supported by Reliance Industries and State Bank of India. ICICI Bank, Larsen & Toubro, TCS and BHEL too recovered their entire losses. The recovery in the Indian equities came despite of a steep fall across the Asian markets and a weak opening in the European markets. Adding further, the halt in parliament over coal allocation scam continued for the 10th consecutive day today as the opposition party BJP was stuck to its demand for resignation of Prime Minister. This resulted in the lower participation of the traders. The broader markets too ended with gains. The BSE Midcap index added 0.53%, while the BSE Smallcap index rose 0.39% at the closing bell. The overall market breadth stood positive. The Sensex ended at 17443.15, up by 58.75 points while Nifty closed at 5276.85, up by 23 points.
