Setback for China – Trend reversing in favour of India; SFI lands big blow! Know here WHY! Setback for China – Trend reversing in favour of India; SFI lands big blow! Know here WHY!

The benchmark BSE Sensex ended its

three-day losing run to close higher by nearly 117 points or

0.36 per cent after a volatile trade on the back of gains in

telecom, energy, oil & gas, banking and auto stocks.

The 30-share index settled higher by 116.76 points or

0.36 per cent, at 32,506.72, driven by gains in Reliance

Industries, Bharti Airtel, ICICI, HDFC Bank and Infosys.

The broader Nifty of National Stock Exchange scaled the

10,200 mark intra day before closing at 10,184.85, showing a

sizeable gain of 38.30 points, or 0.38 per cent. It shuttled

between a high 10,224.15 and low of 10,124.50 in day trade.

The Nifty managed to end on a positive note, courtesy to

smart buying in the latter half of the day, Sameet Chavan,

Chief Analyst-Technical and Derivatives, Angel Broking, said.

"Market regained after a weak start due to expectation of

earnings growth and positive global growth. Telecom sector

outperformed on value buying in expectation of normalisation

of tariffs, consolidation in the industry, and better outlook

on data usage," said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit

Financial Services Ltd.

Covering-up by speculators, who had been creating short

positions, gave equities a push, a broker said.

Sentiment also got a lift after Revenue Secretary Hasmukh

Adhia suggested some rejig in GST rate structure to reduce the

burden on small and medium businesses, brokers said.

Besides, positive cues from Asian markets with the

Japan's Nikkei posting the longest winning-streak of 15 days

in its nearly 70-year history as markets cheered the weekend

election victory of pro-business prime minister Shinzo Abe,

had a positive impact, they said.

After a long Diwali break, market commenced higher at

32,411.86 points, tracking a firm trend at Asian markets. But

stocks quickly slipped into negative terrain to hit a low of

32,312.74 as participants booked profits at improved levels.

However, revival of buying towards the middle of the

session helped the index wipe out losses and touch a high of

32,614.89 before settling 0.36 per cent higher.

Overall, in the last three straight sessions, the 30-

share barometer had lost 243.68, including 194.39 points on

the first day of Samvat 2074 in one-hour special 'Muhurat'

session on Thursday on sustained foreign fund outflows.

Buying activity was so strong that sectoral indices, led

by telecom, energy, realty and oil and gas, ended in the

green.

Optimistic buying in some bluechip companies ahead of

quarterly earnings to be released later this week too

supported the rally.

Tracking overall trends, the broader markets were also

in better shape with the mid-cap surging 0.45 per cent and

the small-cap index rising 0.09 per cent.

Among 30 Sensex scrips 16 ended higher while remaining 14

closed lower.

Bharti Airtel emerged as top performer with 4.99 per cent

rise, followed by Reliance Industries at 3.05 per cent.

Other gainers that supported the rebound were ICICI Bank

1.82 per cent, Wipro 1.63 per cent, Adani Ports 1.36 per cent,

Infosys 1.35 per cent, SBI 1.34 per cent, Hero MotoCorp 1.33

per cent, Coal India 1.31 per cent, Maruti Suzuki 1.07 per

cent, Power Grid 1 per cent and Tata Steel 0.99 per cent.

Among the laggards were Cipla, Axis Bank, Kotak Bank,

HDFC Ltd, Lupin, Tata Motors, ITC Ltd, Hindustan Unilever,

Bajaj Auto and L&T, falling up to 2.38 per cent.

Sector-wise, telecom rose the most 2.82 per cent followed

by energy 1.80 per cent, teck 1.26 per cent, realty 1.04 per

cent, IT 0.90 per cent, Power 0.85 per cent, oil & gas 0.81

per cent and PSU 0.54 per cent.

While, FMCG fell by 0.66 per cent, healthcare 0.64 per

cent and capital goods 0.23 per cent.

The market breadth turned negative as 1,429 stocks ended

in red, 1,288 closed in green while 135 ruled steady.

The total turnover on BSE amounted to Rs 3,901.97 crore.

Globally, Japan's Nikkei ended up by 1.11 per cent,

Shanghai Composite Index by 0.06 per cent, Singapore by 0.27

per cent, but Hong Kong's hang seng shed 0.64 per cent.

In the euro zone, Frankfurt's DAX rose 0.26 per cent and

Paris CAC 40 up 0.21 per cent in their late morning deals.

London's FTSE rose 0.03 per cent.
