crore), Tata Consultancy Services (Rs 451.51 crore) and Infosys (Rs 406.16 crore) also appeared among the most active stocks in terms of

The two-day rally in the market came to a halt on Friday as key indices Nifty and Sensex finished almost flat since gains in Sun
Pharma, Reliance Industries and Infosys were offset by losses in HDFC, HDFC Bank and ITC.
A fresh fall in Indian rupee and a surge in oil
prices dented the sentiment.

on Friday.

flat at 10,768, with 24 stocks in the green and 26 in the red
