BSE: Top losers and gainers

Key benchmark scrapped most of the gains in closing deals, amid rangebound trade on Monday, supported by buying in rate sensitive realty, capital goods and banking stocks.

Last week, the Reserve Bank of India kept key policy rates citing the need to push sagging growth while being equally wary of the inflation, sparking off a relief rally on the bourses.

Broader markets outperformed the bechmarks today after market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India announced rationalisation of the rules on trading of thinly-traded stocks.

BSE Small-Cap and Mid-Cap indices were up more than 1% each, with both these indices outperforming the Sensex today.

The 30-share Sensex ended at 21,101.03, up 21 points higher from its previous close and the borader 50-unit Nifty gained 10 points at 6,284.50.
