The benchmark BSE Sensex spurted over 207 points to 25,913.14 in early trade today on across-the-board buying, tracking rally in global markets.
The 30-share index, which had lost 150.77 points in the previous session, was up 207.21 points, or 0.80 per cent, to 25,913.14, with all sectoral indices led by realty, metal and IT trading in the positive zone gaining up to 1.22 per cent.
The NSE Nifty too soared 53.20 points, or 0.68 per cent, to 7,882.30.
