The Indian equity benchmarks were witnessing heightened volatility in noon deals on Friday, May 2, as traders resorted to profit booking at intraday highs ahead of the weekend amid geopolitical tensions between India and Pakistan in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, analysts said. Reports of retaliation by Indian forces to avenge the Pahalgam terror attack led to selling pressure in the equity markets, analysts said. As of 1:12 pm, the SENSEX was up 422 points at 80,666 and NIFTY50 index advanced 71 points to 24,405.
