BSE Power records highest closing in 14 months

- ANJANA THERESE ANTONY & RAGHAVENDRA KAMATH Mumbai, March 12

WHILE THE US-IRAN war has been causing tremors across the Indian equities market, there are a few players reaping the benefits. For instance, share prices of several utility and power companies went through the roof and were the top performers on Thursday in an otherwise weak market.

The BSE Power closed at its highest level in 14 months at 7,057.01 points. The index as well as the BSE Utilities were the top sectoral gainers, up around 3% each. Stock-specific toppers in the pack were Adani Power, followed by JSW Energy, power plant equipment maker Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) and Torrent Power which ended 5-7% higher on the BSE.
