Sensex, Nifty close after range-bound trade; Vodafone Idea, Indiabulls Housing Finance stocks gain
The stock market of India remained range-bound throughout the day as the major Indian indices like Sensex, Nifty and Bank Nifty are near its all-time high and traders have gone cautious after the weak GDP numbers announced on Friday evening. The BSE Sensex ticked 8 points higher and closed at 40,802 levels while the 50-stocks Nifty slipped 7 points and closed at 12,048 levels after the Closing Bell trade session.
Speaking on the current stock market condition Prakash Pandey, MD & CEO at Plutus Advisors said, "The 50-stock index Nifty is clearly lacking momentum at the highest levels. It's expected to remain in 11,860 to 12,150 range throughout the week. Some correction from current levels is expected and I would advise share market investors to adopt buy on dips strategy throughout the week."
