The Sensex and Nifty pulled back from their all-time highs to settle on a flat note on Friday, owing to sell-offs mainly in IT and banking counters amid a lack of directional cues from global markets.
After surging to its new all-time high of 53,290.81 in early trading, the Sensex ended 18.79 points, or 0.04 per cent, lower at 53,140.06.
The broader Nifty edged lower by 0.80 points or 0.01 per cent at 15,923.40 — its first drop in five sessions. Intra-day, the index soared to its lifetime high of 15,962.25 before moving down.
