Market rallies on banking and consumer durable stocks

The buoyancy in heavyweights, banking and consumer durable stocks helped the Sensex gain 418 points for the day.

The Sensex had a roaring start and the index continued its record rally after Friday's recovery. Strong economic numbers including the July new home sales and durable

Ease in the domestic political worries also helped the Sensex to rally. The market gained momentum by mid-morning trades on gains in banking, realty and consumer durable stocks and rallied sharply to touch the day's high of 14,859. The index also received major support from ICICI Bank, SBI and Reliance Communication, which gained over 5-6% today. Finally, the Sensex closed the session at 14,842, up 418 points.
