Moreover, trading sentiment got a boost after the current account deficit (CAD) narrowed sharply to just USD 300 million, or 0.1 per cent of GDP in the June quarter, driven by lower trade deficit on deeper import contraction.

Markets continued to trade higher in noon trades on Wednesday amid a rally in Asian stocks after the Bank of Japan at its meeting today decided to keep its deposit rate unchanged.

Mumbai: Indian equities climbed the most in 10 days, led by automakers, as Asian stocks ended a six-day run of losses after investor expectations for an US interest-rate increase eased and foreigners turned buyers of local shares for the first time in four days.

The gains helped the S&P BSE Sensex and the NSE Nifty 50 Index pare this week’s loss, the first in three weeks. Reports on Thursday showed US factory output fell more than forecast, while retail sales unexpectedly slid, sending the odds for a rate increase from the Federal Reserve next week to below 20%.

BSE opened down nearly 546 points on Monday morning, continuing the downward streak, taking a hit from the weak cues from the international markets.

Markets opened down 546 points at 28,251.31 from Friday's close.

Benchmark indices BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty extended their rally in the holiday-truncated week with gains of over 0.50 per cent as market sentiment remained bullish after slower than expected US jobs data in August dimmed hopes of interest rate hike by the US Federal Reserve this month. For the week ended September 9, the 30-share index advanced 265.14 points, or 0.93 per cent to 28,797.25 from 28,532.11 on September 2.
