Sensex ends flat in choppy trade

MUMBAI: The stock market benchmark Sensex on Friday came tantalisingly close to the 18000 mark for the second time in a week on expectations of an interest rate cut but receded later on profit booking to close almost flat.

In high level of volatility, the Bombay Stock Exchange barometer fluctuated erratically before ending the day at 17773.36 against 17777.14.

The BSE barometer touched a low of 17708.80 during the day and a new intra-trade peak of 17979.18, less than 21 points away from the milestone, during late afternoon trading. — PTI
