It was a good week for the Indian market that showed resilience and held its own amidst its global peers. On the domestic front, good IIP numbers and lower inflation figures kept the market in a positive frame. While the market goes into next week with a positive bias, experts are not convinced there is more steam left for the market to go up. This week's good figures are: Sensex up 3.5% and Nifty up 3.7%. BSE Midcap index up 4.5%, BSE Smallcap index up 3.5% over the week. BSE Realty index up 13%, BSE Consumer Goods index up 7.7%, BSE Auto index up 6.5%, BSE Bankex index up 5.5%, BSE Metal index up 3.5% and BSE Oil & Gas index up 3%.
Positive global cues saw the Indian market close higher today. There was some profit booking in last hour of trade. Experts felt the market did not have any major expectations from the interim rail budget and thus almost ignored the event today. They added that the market could see a sell off on Monday due to the vote on account and interim budget. Sensex shut shop at 9634, up 168 points and Nifty at 2948, up 55 points from the previous close. CNX Midcap index was up 1.65% and BSE Smallcap index was up 0.62%. The market breadth was positive with advances at 771 against declines of 417 on the NSE. Top Nifty gainers included Mahindra & Mahindra, Idea and Reliance Communications while losers included Sun Pharma, GAIL and ABB.
