Sensex gains over 100 pts, Nifty50 above 10,400; Federal Bank up 3%, Sun Pharma 2%





NEW DELHI: Benchmark indices opened on a higher note on Friday amid easing fears over interest rate hikes in the US and positive cues from other Asian markets. 

At 9.23 am, the BSE Sensex was trading 121.74 points, or 0.36 per cent, higher at 33,941.24. Nifty50 rose 37.30 points, or 0.36 per cent, to 10,420. 

The rise was seen on Day 1 of the March F&O series. The index had in February witnessed its worst series in last fourteen months. 


“Considering overall derivative activity, we are expecting Nifty to correct towards 10,000 mark in the coming month and thus, any bounce towards 10,700 - 10,750 should be used to exit long positions. Aggressive traders can even initiate fresh shorts around the mentioned zone," said Jay Purohit, Technical & Derivatives Analyst at Centrum Broking.
