Strong participation from Reliance group companies also cheered investor sentiment. The Sensex breached the 20,700 level in the afternoon trades and held on its gains. Relentless buying thereafter in front-line stocks helped the index to touch the record high of 20,763 towards the close. However, the Sensex shed some gains at close to end the session at 20,687, up 342 points. The Nifty, too, touched its all-time high of 6,300 to close at 6,274, up 96 points. Market breadth was neutral. Of the 2,922 stocks traded on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) 1,485 stocks advanced, 1,415 stocks declined and 22 stocks ended unchanged. Except the BSE HC index, BSE IT index and the BSE Auto index, all sectoral indices ended in a positive territory. The BSE CG ended firm with gains of 2.56% at 20,029 while the BSE Oil & Gas index rose 2.31% at 13,917 and the BSE Bankex index added 2.01% at 11,905.
