"Nifty witnessed a slightly volatile session hovering between 17650 and 17500 zone with no clear directional move and once again closed near the 17,600 zone for 5th consecutive session. Bank Nifty also witnessed some fluctuations and the last hour pullback helped the index to close in the green near 40,650 zone," Parekh said.
