Similarly, the wider 50 - scrip Nifty of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) ended the day's trade in the positive territory. It was higher by 72. 05 points or 1. 02 percent at 7, 120. 30 points.
The Sensex, which opened at 23, 237. 23 points, provisionally closed at 23, 381. 87 points (at 3. 30 p. m. ) - - up 189. 90 points or 0. 82 percent from the previous day's close at 23, 191. 97 points.
