Indian markets made merry on Friday basking in the performance of HDFC twins which led the charge from the onset. HDFC Bank and HDFC Ltd gained nearly 6 per cent intraday and were the top two stocks in terms of contribution to the frontline indices. The stocks also helped Bank Nifty to hit its life time highs of 42,345.50. BSE Sensex today ended at 61,795.04, up 1181 points or 1.95 per cent while the broader market Nifty50 settled at 18,349.70, up 321.50 points or 1.78 per cent.

The markets took cues from their US peers which witnessed a rally not seen in the last 2.5 years. The biggest trigger was softening in CPI inflation in the world's largest economy. In the 50-stock Nifty50, 37 stocks gained and 12 declined while 1 stock was unchanged.

Apart from the HDFC twins, Infosys, Tech Mahindra and HCL Tech were the other top gainers. The top losers were Eicher Motors, Hero MotoCorp, SBI, Britannia Industries and Mahindra & Mahindra.
