The Sensex rose 1.69% for the week and the Nifty gained 1.65%, despite both benchmarks slipping nearly 1% on Friday after a four-session rally. The Sensex ended at 76,802.88, while the Nifty closed at 24,013.10. Profit-booking and a sharp fall in information technology (IT) stocks capped gains, but strength in domestic-facing sectors helped the market close the week in positive territory.
