The BSE Sensex defied gravity for the eighth straight session to close at another record high on Wednesday as positive global cues and robust foreign fund inflows fueled risk-on sentiment.
The center approving a ₹ 2 lakh crore production-linked incentive package for various sectors also buoyed investors, traders said. The 30-share index settled 316.02 points, or 0.73%, higher at 43,593.67.
The NSE Nifty vaulted 118.05 points or 0.93% to close at a record 12,749.15. Both the indices scaled record highs for the third session on the trot.
Tata Steel was the top gainer in the Sensex pack, surging 7.39%.
