Mumbai, Feb 5 A massive surge in Banking stocks lifted India's equity indices during the morning trade session on Friday with the NSENifty50 crossing the 15,000 points mark.

At 9.50 a.m., the S&P BSE Sensex traded at 50,895.58, higher by 281.29 points or 0.56 per cent from its previous close of 50,255.75.
