MUMBAI: The benchmark BSE Sensex regained the 27,000 mark by climbing over 200 points in early trade on Thursday, extending its winning streak to the fifth straight day.
This came on the back of continued buying by participants amid a mixed trend in global markets after the US Fed kept its near-zero benchmark interest rate unchanged.
Besides, strengthening of the rupee by 25 paise at 63.87 against the dollar in early trade supported the rally.
The 30-share index surged 200.65 points, or 0.75 per cent, to trade above the 27,000 level at 27,033.31, with all sectoral indices led by healthcare, oil & gas, capital goods and consumer durables trading in the positive zone with gains of up to 1.04 per cent.
The gauge had gained 461.68 points in the past four straight sessions.
Also, the NSE index Nifty gained back the 8,100 mark by surging 45.75 points, or 0.57 per cent, at 8,137.30.
