Sensex hits historic 10,000 mark
Afp, New Delhi
Indian share prices touched a historic high Monday afternoon with the benchmark 30-share Sensex tipping the 10,000 points level for the first time ever. In a volatile trading session, the Sensex briefly topped the 10,000 mark before dropping swiftly on heavy selling pressure. Brokers at large securities firms were seen giving "high-fives" and clenching fists in celebration when the level was breached. At a leading brokerage firm Motilal Oswal in south Mumbai, brokers cut a large cake with a "10,000" in icing to mark the moment.
