The Indian stock market closed deep in the green on Friday as a sharp surge in heavyweight IT stocks helped the market record gains after a two-day losing streak.
Sensex gained 331 points to close at 77,264 while Nifty 50 rose around 85 points to end the session at around 24,176 on Friday. The broader markets also closed in the green as India VIX, which measures market volatility, dropped more than 4%.
