New Delhi, May 22 -- Market benchmarks the Sensex and the Nifty 50 rose by more than half a per cent each in intraday trade on Friday, 22 May, amid a rise in the Indian rupee due to possible intervention by the Reserve Bank of India. The domestic currency rose above the 96-per-dollar mark in intraday trade on Friday.

However, elevated crude oil prices, persistent uncertainty surrounding a potential US-Iran peace deal, and the possibility of interest rate hikes amid rising inflation concerns capped the gains.

The Nifty 50 was 0.48% up at 23,769, while the Sensex was 0.55% up at 75,595 around 12:35 pm.
