The market crossed the psychological 10000 level in yesterday's trades and is likely to take further lead as buying interest continues in large-caps and several other sectoral counters. A strong overnight US markets and around 1-2% gains in the Asian indices in current trades may augur well for the markets.

Indian floats, too, were upbeat on strong domestic and US markets. Barring Dr Reddy's other Indian ADRs ended at higher levels. Tata Motors led the upmove and surged 5.32% while Satyam, HDFC Bank, MTNL, VSNL, Infosys and Rediff gained over 2-4% each.
