BSE: Top gainers and losers

Benchmark indices closed in the green zone with Sensex and Nifty clocking 0.2-0.6% gains led by financials and information technology shares.

IT stocks were in demand today with hopes of a sturdier economic recovery in US, after jobless claims data showed a decline last week.

The 30-share BSE Sensex ended 118.99 points higher at 21,193.58 and the broader 50-share Nifty gained 34.90 points to close at 6,313.80.
