Benchmark equity indices Sensex and Nifty surged to all-time high levels in early trade on Friday, December 15, amid an optimistic trend in global markets after the US Federal Reserve kept its key interest rate unchanged and signalled rate cuts next year. Continuous foreign fund inflows into the equity markets also fuelled the rally in stocks.

Among the Sensex firms, JSW Steel, Infosys, Tata Steel, HCL Technologies, Tata Consultancy Services, Sun Pharma, Tata Motors and Reliance Industries were the major gainers.
Nestle, Axis Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank and UltraTech Cement were among the laggards.
