Indian markets perk up on Wednesday

Mumbai, Jun 1 (IBNS) Indian markets perked up on Wednesday, largely due to buying in IT and FMCG stocks, with the Sensex moving up 45.97 points to 26713.93 and Nifty up 19.85 points to 8179.95.

Some of major gainers on Wednesday were Adani Ports, Asian Paints, Bharti Airtel, ITC, TCS and Coal India while SBI, Tata Motors, ICICI Bank, Cipla and BHEL figured among the major losers.

The macroeconomic data, published on Tuesday, revealed that India's economic growth accelerated to 7.9 per cent in the first quarter to surpass China's 6.7 per cent growth in the same period.

However, most experts agree that a good monsoon and increased private investments are critical for maintaining the current growth momentum.
