Nifty breaches 10,000 points for first time

The NSE Nifty topped 10,000 points for the first time, as hopes for improving earnings, accelerating economic growth and more government reforms continued to support a strong rally this year.

The Nifty rose 0.45 percent to a record high 10,011.30, then pared some of the gains and was up 0.2 percent.

Meanwhile, the benchmark Sensex rose as much 0.33 percent to a record high of 32,350.71 points.
