The market resumed on a positive note and rose over 118 points to touch the day's high at 15,661 in mid-morning trades. Reliance Industries and Larsen & Toubro led the rally, but caution and lack of news capped the gains as the market neared record highs. However, the Sensex fell into negative territory soon after the release of weaker-than-expected industrial production data. The industrial output in July rose to 7.1% from a year earlier, well below the forecast of 9.6%. The market remained subdued thereafter with alternate bouts of buying and selling in index pivotal stocks. Selling intensified towards the close and the market touched the day's low at 15,487. The Sensex finally closed the session at 15,505, down 37 points. The Nifty ended the session at 4,497 with a little change.
