 "Provisional: Market end at 2014 record closing levels")
Markets carried early gains into closing deals with both the benchmarks ending at their highest closing levels in 2014.
The 30-share Sensex of the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) closed 68 points higher at 21,319 and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) Nifty index closed almost 20 points higher at 6,3333 levels today.
In the broader markets, the BSE mid and smallcap indices ended up between 0.08-0.25%.
The rupee was trading at Rs 61.82 compared with previous close of Rs 61.88 per dollar. The Indian rupee was trading lower due to month end dollar demand from importers. Bearish sentiments in equity markets also contributed to the weakness.
