The Indian benchmark indices started the session on a muted note today (28 March 2022) amid feeble global cues.

The top Sensex performers included Ultratech Cement, Bharti Airtel, Sun Pharma, Titan, Maruti, Wipro, HUL, and PowerGrid, which gained up to 1.1 percent. Cipla, Tata Consumer, Bajaj Auto, Indian Oil, and Grasim were the top Nifty winners. On the other hand, HDFC twins, Kotak Bank, TCS, Dr. Reddy's, UPL, M&M, Nestle, Bajaj Finance, and HCL Tech were the biggest laggards, down between 0.4-1 percent.

The broader markets were, however, outperforming the frontline indices. The BSE MidCap and SmallCap indices were up to 0.15 per cent higher.

Sectorally, Nifty Bank, Financials, each down 0.8 per cent, were the top losers. Realty and Comsumer Durable indices were also in red. While, Nifty Oil & Gas, Pharma, Metals, Media and Auto were all in the positive zone, up between 0.3-2 per cent.

Among stocks, PVR and Inox Leisure soared 6 per cent and 13 per cent, respectively. The two have inked a deal to merge and will become India’s largest film exhibition company.
