Sensex Edges Higher, Posts Best Weekly Gain In 3 Months

Indian shares ended higher on Friday, recording their biggest weekly gain in more than three months, as additional stimulus from the European Central Bank helped offset disappointment about the Reserve Bank of India's decision to hold rates.

The Nifty ended 0.18 per cent higher at 8,261.75, and rose 2.16 per cent for the week. 

The Sensex closed 0.20 per cent higher at 26,747.18, gaining 1.97 per cent for the week. 

Both indexes posted their best weekly gain since the week ended September 2.
