Indian shares end higher (2022-09-09)
Friday, 9 September 2022
BENGALURU, Sept 8 (Reuters): Indian shares closed 1 per cent higher on Thursday, snapping two straight sessions of losses, led by gains in banking and technology stocks and a slump in oil prices.
The NSE Nifty 50 index was 0.99 per cent higher at 17,798.75, at close, while the S&P BSE Sensex rose 1.12 per cent to 59,688.22.
Investor sentiment in domestic equities was buoyed by oil prices tumbling to over seven-month lows on concerns over demand, with both the benchmark indexes hitting a near three-week high in the trading session.
