Nifty jumps 114 points to scale new high of 20,110 in early trade

-


The equity benchmark indices continued their winning momentum in early trade on Tuesday, climbing for the eighth day running, with the Nifty scaling a fresh all-time high level.

A largely firm trend in global markets and fresh foreign fund inflows added to the positive trend in equities in initial deals.

The 30-share BSE Sensex jumped 412.02 points to 67,539.10 in early trade. The Nifty climbed 114 points to 20,110.35 — an all-time high.

Among the Sensex firms, Larsen & Toubro, ICICI Bank, Sun Pharma, JSW Steel, Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services, Axis Bank and Bharti Airtel were the major gainers.

NTPC, Maruti, Hindustan Unilever and Tata Motors were among the laggards.

In Asian markets, Tokyo, Shanghai and Hong Kong were trading in the green, while Seoul quoted lower.

The US markets ended in positive territory on Monday.

“Optimism regarding India’s growth prospects in a low-growth world and a fast decelerating China has triggered this rally, enabling the Nifty to cross the psychological 20,000-mark. FIIs, too, have joined the party, with a buy figure of Rs 1,473 crore,” said V. K. Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.

The participation of the fairly valued large banking stocks and RIL make this rally healthy, even when the overall market valuation is turning expensive, he added.

Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) turned buyers on Monday, as they bought equities worth Rs 1,473.09 crore, according to exchange data.

Global oil benchmark Brent crude climbed 0.39 per cent to $90.99 a barrel.

The 30-share BSE benchmark regained the 67,000 level on Monday. The benchmark jumped 528.17 points or 0.79 per cent to settle at 67,127.08. The Nifty ended at 19,996.35, reflecting a gain of 176.40 points or 0.89 per cent. The Nifty scaled the record 20,000 mark for the first time ever in intra-day trade.
