The Nifty extended its gains for a second consecutive session on Friday, advancing 116 points to settle at 23,053. After a choppy start, the benchmark index found its footing around mid-session and rallied more than 200 points from the day's low. However, profit-booking in the second half pared some of the gains, with the index eventually settling at a two-week high.
For the week, the Nifty gained 2%.
Among the Nifty constituents, Trent, InterGlobe Aviation (IndiGo) and Infosys emerged as the top gainers. Shriram Finance, Nestle India and Mahindra & Mahindra were among the biggest losers.
Sectoral performance remained largely subdued, with most indices ending in the red. Nifty IT, Pharma and Healthcare were the only sectoral indices to close higher, while Consumer Durables, Media and Cement witnessed the sharpest declines.
