Key Indian benchmark indices closed higher on Wednesday
Mumbai, Mar 21 (IBNS): Key Indian benchmark indices closed higher on Wednesday but could not retain their day's high owing to profit booking by investors towards the close of day, media reports said.

Tog gainers included Bharti Airtel, Bajaj Finance, Idea Cellular, NTPC, L&T, HDFC Bank, HDFC and UltraTech Cement while Tata Steel, Adani Ports, Bosch, Tata Motors, Sun Pharma and Hero Motocorp were some of the stocks that declined.
