(Reuters) - Indian shares ended higher on Friday helped by gains in energy and automobile stocks as the rupee regained some lost ground, but the benchmark indexes logged their worst week since end June.

Reliance Industries Ltd, up 1.4 percent, was the top boost to the index. The Nifty Auto index climbed 2.2 percent, with Hero MotoCorp Ltd, up 5.2 percent, topping the gains.
