Benchmark stock market indices ended the day on a strong note as the NSE Nifty 50 managed to cross 20,000 mark briefly before the closing bell, while the S&P Sensex ended above 67,000.
The mood was euphoric as the 50-share index crossed the crucial milestone, which analysts believe could be the start of another bull run as fundamentals remain strong.
A steady flow of global and domestic funds, the success of the recent G20 and robust macroeconomic indicators are key reasons behind the rally in domestic markets, even as global cues remain unfavorable.
All sectoral indices ended in positive territory today, with heavyweights like Nifty Bank, Nifty Financial Services, Nifty IT and Nifty Auto gaining sharply.
Here are the top gainers and losers on the Sensex and Nifty indices.
