Later, the Nifty touched a high of 6,006, breaching the 6,000 mark for the first time in two years and the Sensex saw a high of 19,757.

Adding further, the Nifty today breached the 6000-mark for the first time in nearly 23 months on broad based buying after the US House of Representatives approved a rare tax increase, averting the fiscal cliff. The BSE Sensex ended above 19,700; highest since January 07, 2011.

On currency front, the Indian rupee rose by 37 paise to trade at fresh two-week high of Rs54.31 against the US dollar in early trade at the Interbank Foreign Exchange. The rise was due to increased dollar selling by exporters and banks amid sustained foreign capital inflows.
