The Indian stocks market rose on Friday with S&P BSE Sensex reclaiming the 35,000 mark.
The rise in global equity markets supported the investors' sentiment in India.
Besides, healthy buying in IT and oil and gas stocks pulled the indices higher. The S&P BSE IT index rose by 5.06 per cent and the BSE Oil and gas index rose by 2.75 per cent.
Rahul Sharma, Research Head, Equity99 Advisors, said: "After Thursday's expiry and strong roll-over in the derivate segment, the market today traded on a strong note led by strong gains in technology stocks. Strong buying support was seen by high-net worth-investors and institutions."
