What do experts say?

Last week, BSE benchmark Sensex rose 249.29 points or 0.32 per cent. Ajit Mishra, SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd, said the market ended the week with modest gains, reflecting a volatile and range-bound trading environment amid mixed global and domestic cues. He said the week started on a positive note, supported by a reduction in geopolitical tensions and continued progress in fourth quarter earnings, which boosted initial sentiment.

However, Mishra further said that the gains were gradually limited due to rising crude oil prices, weak cues from Asian markets and continuous exit of foreign institutional investors. Reliance Industries remained the most valued domestic company, followed by HDFC Bank, Bharti Airtel, State Bank of India, ICICI Bank, TCS, Bajaj Finance, Larsen & Toubro, Hindustan Unilever and LIC.
