New Delhi:
India’s blue-chip indexes, Nifty and Sensex hit fresh all-time highs today, led by gains in IT services firms after their results and commentary exceeded expectations, alleviating concerns about weak demand.
The NSE Nifty 50 added 1.22 per cent to 21,911 points, while the S&P BSE Sensex climbed 1.31 per cent to 72,661, as of 12.36 pm.
Shares of Tata Consultancy Services climbed 4.3 per cent and Infosys surged 7 per cent, after reporting bigger-than-expected revenue in the third quarter. The rise powered the IT index about 5 per cent higher.
