After an optimistic start, markets traded with traction but in particular range to end near all time high levels. Sentiments remained up-beat since beginning with traders taking encouragement with the private report that the government’s recapitalization plan for public sector banks is likely to propel credit growth by up to 700 basis points to 15% and as consequence push up GDP numbers to 7% in the next fiscal.
