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.

Investors appeared to be cautious prior to the outcome of the US Fed meet later in the day.

On Wednesday, BSE Sensex was up 139.42 points at 33,136.18 and NSE Nifty was up 30.90 points at 10,155.30.

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.
