Mumbai, Mar 11 (IBNS) Rally in crude oil prices, a recovery in Asian markets and positive data from Europe helped the Indian market to rebound with the Sensex turning around on Friday to gain 95 points and close at to 24717.99 and Nifty closing above its 7500-mark at 7510.20 (up 24 points).
For the week ending Friday, Sensex and Nifty gained 0.3 percent each largely due to lack of major domestic and global cues.
