Mumbai, July 3 (IANS) Indian equity indices opened at record high on Wednesday following a rally in the banking stocks. Sensex and Nifty made a new all-time high of 80,039 and 24,292 respectively.

The Broader market remains positive. On the National Stock Exchange (NSE), out of the total, 1573 were in the green and 628 in the red.

HDFC Bank shares are in the spotlight on Wednesday, as the company’s weightage in the MSCI index is expected to rise as FIIs have greater room to buy stock.
