Markets remain cautions ahead of US policy decision and April F&O expiry

Mumbai, Apr 27 (IBNS) At close of business on Wednesday, Sensex ended up 56.82 points at 26064.12 and Nifty up 17.25 points at 7979.90, ahead of the April Futures and Options expiry on Thursday.

Investors remained cautious on Wednesday awaiting the policy decisions to be adopted by the central banks of Japan and the US.

Axis Bank, India's third largest lender by assets, which reported its March quarter earnings on Tuesday, saw a one per cent decline in net profit compared to the same quarter a year ago, largely due to bad loans.

On Wednesday, some of the top gainers were Adani Ports, Bharti Airtel, ONGC, GAIL and Coal India while ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, SBI, HDFC, Hindalco, UltraTech Cement and Tata Power ended as losers.
