New Delhi: The Reserve Bank of India thinks that the benchmark Sensex has crossed 15,000-points level - at 15,543.85 to be precise.
The website of the country's central bank shows the Bombay Stock Exchange's 30-share barometer index at 15,543.85 - a level the index has never reached.
The Sensex settled at 12,340 points on Friday, with a loss of 113 points, and the maximum it has touched in its history is 14,723.88 on February 9.
PTI quoted an RBI spokesperson from Mumbai saying, "it is an error".
However, the central bank was little closer to reality when it comes to NSE's 50-share Nifty, which the site showed at 3,643.60 on Friday, though it was Thursday's closing.
On Friday, Nifty closed at 3,608.55, below the level shown on the RBI website, which also carries updates on policy rates, reserve ratios, exchange rates, lending-deposit rates, capital market, money market and government securities market.
All these data are available on the website under the column "current rates". The errors were, however, not corrected till late on Friday evening.
