Closing Bell

Indian shares extended their record closing streak, led by miners amid better-than-expected quarterly earnings.

The S&P BSE Sensex rose 0.25 percent at 30,658 while the NSE Nifty advanced 0.14 percent to 9,525. Both the indexes hit all-time highs for the fourth time in six sessions.

Among the sectoral indices, S&P BSE Metal index gained 2.4 percent while the S&P BSE Auto rose 0.6 percent.

The market breadth was skewed in the favour of losers, with about 5 stocks declining to every 4 stocks that advanced.

Nifty Headed For 9,700?

"Nifty is heading towards 9,700 and we could see those levels coming-in over the course of next 45 days or so. With every fresh breakout, we are seeing Nifty consolidating and moving in a very narrow range rather than witnessing a huge breakout," said Dhaval P Vyas, founder & chief market analyst at www.dhavalpvyas.com.

"Traders are basically holding long positions and we are seeing new money flowing into the markets, so momentum remains positive," said Vyas.
