Indian indices
Today, the Indian equities witnessed an extremely strong trading session. The Nifty breached its crucial 6,000 mark once again, while the Sensex rallied over 19900 led by a strong buying interest in rate sensitive stocks and other sectors. The market breadth was also encouraging for the investors. The annual wholesale price inflation (WPI) eased to 7.18% in December, government data showed on Monday. Markets hit two year high as the inflation numbers came below analysts' expectations of 7.40% and down from the annual rise of 7.24% in November. Rally in global markets and optimism in IT stocks ahead of Q3 results of India's IT major Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) scheduled later in the day further boosted investor sentiments.

Movement of the Indian indices for the day:
The Indian markets closed on a positive note in today's trade led by buying in software makers after better-than-expected results by Infosys on Friday. Today, the Indian indices stayed higher throughout the day owing to gains in index heavyweights which helped the markets to remain on an upbeat mode.
