New Delhi: Total market valuation of all listed companies on BSE rose to a lifetime high of over Rs 130 lakh crore today as the Sensex went past the 32,000-mark for the first time ever by gaining 232 points.
At close of trade today, market capitalisation (m-cap) of BSE listed firms surged to Rs 1,30,91,755 crore (over USD 2 trillion).
There are over 5,200 companies listed on BSE, of which 2,885 are actively traded.
"The Sensex touched the psychological 32000 mark on July 13 aided by expectations of a rate cut, good monsoons and overcoming the fears of disruption due to introduction of GST, said Deepak Jasani, Head Retail Research at HDFC Securities.

From the 30-share index, 25 ended with gains. ITC emerged as the top gainer by rising 3.03 per cent.
"June was a month where the markets did not see any fireworks. But the rain god's blessings, record low inflation, and so far a smooth GST transition seem to have brought the bulls back in July," said Kunj Bansal, Executive Director & CIO Equity, Centrum Wealth Management Ltd.
"The markets don't like uncertainty and now that GST is live and the de-stocking which made everyone sanguine on the quarter?s results could be also be largely behind us," Bansal said further.
