The Sensex opened with a negative gap of 112 points at 14,338 on the back of weak cues from the global markets. Buying in technology stocks, however, stemmed the downmove.
The index touched a low of 14,286 and thereafter exhibited steady movement for most part of the trading day. Fresh buying in select auto and banking stocks in late noon trades helped the index recoup its losses and rebound into the positive zone.
The Sensex touched a high of 14,495, and finally ended (provisional) with a gain of 43 points at 14,493.
