Taking cues from positive Asian indices in early trades, the Sensex opened higher at 15,535 and touched the day's high of 15,581 quickly, but sustained selling in index heavyweights dragged the Sensex into the negative territory by afternoon. After zigzagging between the positive and negative territory thereafter, the market gained momentum in the late trades on buying in heavyweights, consumer durables and FMCG stocks. However, profit bookings towards the close saw the Sensex shed the early gains and end the session at 15,446, down 19 points. The Nifty also finally closed the session in the negative territory at 4,476, down three points. | | | Movers & Shakers | - Satyam Computer closed in the red despite introducing the Integrated Digital Media Framework (IDMF), a solution accelerator in IFRA Expo 2007 in Chennai.
