Bull run continues; Sensex, Nifty scale fresh peaks

Mumbai, November 11

The BSE Sensex defied gravity for the eighth straight session to finish at yet another record high on Wednesday as positive global cues and robust foreign fund inflows fuelled risk-on sentiment.

The government approving a Rs 2 lakh-crore production-linked incentive package for various sectors also buoyed investors, traders said.

After touching its all-time peak of 43,708.47 during a see-saw session, the BSE index settled 316.02 points higher at 43,593.67.

Similarly, the Nifty vaulted 118.05 points to close at a record 12,749.15. Intra-day, it touched its all-time high of 12,769.75. Both the key indices scaled record highs for the third session on the trot. — PTI
