Deccan Cements, Taj GVK, Camlin Fine Sciences and others hit 52-week high today; check details

As many as 16 stocks hit their highest levels in 52 weeks, even as the benchmark equity indices traded flat amid volatility. After ending the previous session in the green, NIFTY50 and SENSEX opened lower on Friday and mostly remained flat amid a cautious approach from the investors.

Amid the concerns over US President Donald Trump's tariffs, volatility prevailed in Indian stock markets, while global markets also remained tense. The Trump Administration’s decision to defer tariffs on select imports from Canada and Mexico, which fall under the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement, until April 2, could not boost the investor sentiment.

The investors also remained cautious ahead of the release of the US nonfarm payrolls data and trade deficit data as well as the decision of the European Central Bank on interest rates.

As of 1:16 pm, the benchmark NIFTY 50 was trading flat at 22,548.55, up 3.85 points, or 0.02%. The BSE SENSEX, meanwhile, gained 16.07 points, or 0.02%, to trade at 74,356.16.

The volatility index, or India VIX, slipped 0.23% to 13.5. NIFTY IT and NIFTY Realty indices were among the top losers, shedding 1.4% and 1.3%, respectively. On the other hand, NIFTY Media, NIFTY Oil & Gas, and NIFTY Auto were trading in the green.
