Summary

Bank stocks rose, with Moneycontrol reporting that Bank Nifty gained 3% to nearly 61,400 as crude oil prices fell. Bank of Baroda, PNB and Yes Bank rose up to 6%, it said. Zee Business reported that Nifty Bank hit a nine-month high and came close to its 52-week high, naming HDFC, BoB, ICICI and PNB among the banks that rose. Neither outlet gave a figure for the crude price fall in the headline. Bank Nifty is the index of the country's main banking stocks, so a 3% move means the group rose together, not one bank alone. A 52-week high is the highest level the index has reached in the past year. The two outlets agree on the direction of the move; only Moneycontrol gave the 3% figure and the level of nearly 61,400.
