The Nifty is witnessing a lackluster session due to subdued global peers and the lack of positive triggers. Gains in realty, oil & gas and healthcare stocks were offset by losses in FMCG, metals and technology. The market may be choppy in the next few sessions ahead of the June series expiry, according to dealers.
At 10:15 a.m., the Nifty was at 5,115.85, up 1.20 points, or 0.02 percent. It has touched a high of 5,124.85 and a low of 5,107.45 today.
The Sensex was at 16,880.59, down 1.57 points, or 0.01 percent. It has touched a high of 16,908.54 and a low of 16,857 today.
