Mumbai: The Sensex is up 265.15 points or 1.04% at 25709.96 and the Nifty is up 70.40 points or 0.93% at 7655.40.
About 1339 shares have advanced, 1275 shares declined, and 90 shares are unchanged. Divestment target for FY15 at a little over Rs 43,000 crore. Not too aggressive a target, but government will still have to reform PSUs and then hope that market sentiment remains upbeat.
