DEAL DONE, NOW FOR THE DEALS

From steam turbines to high-technology reactors, India’s power sector companies are set to reap a bonanza after the government, last weekend, won backing of the 45-nation Nuclear Suppliers Group to trade in atomic fuel and technology in the global market.

Companies like BHEL, NTPC, Tata Power and Larsen and Toubro are eyeing a raft of high-value contracts and joint ventures, the promise of which fuelled a stock rally on Monday. The Bombay Stock Exchange’s 30-share Sensex rose 461 points, or 3.2 per cent, on the back of a surge in stocks of power and equipment manufacturing companies.
