Marketmen said the market has mostly responded to the pro-reforms announcements made in this year's Budget.

Besides, a sharp sell-off in the run-up to the Budget as the Sensex has fallen by about 15 per cent over past two months and absence of any major expectations, have also helped the markets register smart gains on Tuesday and on the Budget day.
