The domestic benchmark indices surged over 5% on Friday (Sep 19) as foreign
institutional investors (FIIS) turned net buyers after a week of huge selling pressure, tracking reaction in the worldwide markets that saw a complete turnaround from the previous day.
Brokers said that the majority of buying was seen in the index stocks.
The BSE Sensex, which opened positively at 13,763.83, up 448.23 points, on encouraging global cues, remained strong all through the day.
