Benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty gained up to 0.42 per cent on value buying by investors after recent losses on easing inflation worries and positive global cues.

WPI inflation easing to six-month low of 2.84 per cent in January and encouraging earnings by some blue chips boosted the sentiments, brokers said.

Overseas, Asian stocks gained taking cues from the rally on Wall Street overnight following the release of stronger-than-expected US inflation data, traders.
