The markets exhibited volatility in today’s trade oscillating between
the red and green before finally managing to close in the green.
Positive cues from the European indices supported the sentiments
towards the later half of the trading session. The benchmark indices
opened on a firm note tracking positive Asian stocks and on the
reports of the collections of direct tax during April to February 2010
of the current financial year which surged by 7.52 %. From the
