Press Trust Of India

Mumbai: The bourses continued their upward march and key indices - the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) benchmark 30-share index (Sensex) and the National Stock Exchange's (NSE) S&P CNX Nifty - on Friday soared to all-time peaks immediately after the market resumed trading.

The Sensex scaled a new intra-trade record high of 10,951.38 points while the Nifty was quoted at 3,248.40 points in early trade over previous close of 10,878.74 points and 3,226.60 points.

Driven by consistent liquidity, the market headed towards the crucial 11,000 level as Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and domestic mutual funds made heavy purchases in key counters in the current month.
