Guwahati: The final day of trading saw a significant rise of 712 points, as Indian equities markets continued to increase their gains.

The indices, which reached their best levels since April 29, are up more than 8% this month thanks to increases in equities of car, bank, and metal companies.

Investor morale improved as well as news that the U.S. economy contracted for a second consecutive quarter fueled optimism that the U.S. Federal Reserve could decide against making swift interest rate increases.

Sentiment has also benefited from a lack of selling and some modest purchases by overseas institutional investors.

SBI Life Insurance, which reported a greater quarterly profit, increased 9.1% and was the top gainer in the Nifty.

After announcing a 17-fold increase in quarterly earnings, GMM Pfaudler, a manufacturer of industrial equipment, saw a spike in its shares of up to 18 percent.

In relation to the dollar, the rupee rose to its highest level in over three weeks.
