Indian stock markets rebounded in early trade, with Sensex and Nifty gaining after a sharp fall in the previous session. Bank stocks led the recovery, fueled by value buying and positive US markets.
Mumbai, Nov 22 (PTI) Benchmark equity indices Sensex and Nifty bounced back in early trade on Friday after falling sharply in the previous session driven by value buying at lower levels and a rally in blue-chip bank stocks.
Buying by domestic institutional investors and firm trends in US markets also added to the recovery in domestic equities.
The BSE benchmark Sensex jumped 506.58 points to 77,662.37 in early trade. The NSE Nifty climbed 162.9 points to 23,512.80.
From the 30-share Sensex pack, State Bank of India, ICICI Bank, IndusInd Bank, Tata Motors, Power Grid, Bajaj Finance, Bajaj Finserv and Tech Mahindra were the biggest gainers.
Adani Ports, Axis Bank, Mahindra & Mahindra, Titan and Sun Pharma were the major laggards.
Eight of the ten listed Adani group firms were trading lower during the morning trade, extending their previous day's fall, after billionaire industrialist Gautam Adani was charged in the US for alleged bribery and fraud.
Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth Rs 5,320.68 crore on Thursday, while Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) bought shares worth Rs 4,200.16 crore, according to exchange data.
