Shares of Maruti Suzuki India (MSIL), India’s largest passenger vehicle maker, rallied Rs 8,319.80 in intraday trade before closing 6.33 per cent higher at Rs 8,274.6 on the BSE in the previous session. This is the highest level seen since February 28 this year. The stock has surged 25 per cent from its 52-week low of Rs 6,540 touched in March this year.
