Dalal Street made a smart recovery today and how! After losing as much as 533 points during the session to hit an intraday low of 34,426, the Sensex recovered 723 points from that level to close at 35,150. The broader Nifty index of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) closed at 10,549, gaining 215 points from the day's lowest level, and 60 points higher from the previous close. During the session, which marked a 781-point swing for the Sensex, the markets first slumped on initial jitters on the shock exit of central bank governor Urjit Patel, but then reversed those losses by the end of the session as more clarity emerged on assembly election results.
