After tumbling 13 per cent and 14 per cent respectively when the frontline index, the S&P BSE Sensex, was at its peak level of 36,283 on January 29, 2018, the mid-and small-cap indices on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) have staged a partial recovery.
 
Both indices moved up for the fourth straight session this week with a gain of 2.7% and 2.5% respectively, as compared to 1.4% rise in the S&P BSE Sensex. On a year-to-date basis, however, they still remain underperformers with a fall of eight per cent, as compared to less than one per cent fall in
