On Friday, the BSE Sensex surged 190.75 points or 0.26 per cent to 72,832. The NSE Nifty jumped 84.80 points or 0.39 per cent to 22,096.75. Except for IT, all sectors ended in green with Auto, Pharma, and Realty being top gainers.

“Markets opened weak but soon gained momentum including broader space amid positive cues. Next week being a truncated week and the derivatives' monthly expiry, we might see some volatility while Nifty is likely to consolidate at higher levels. Also, US GDP data and other key economic data would keep investors busy,” said Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.
