India’s benchmark stock index rose for a sixth day, extending a 2 1/2-year high, as investors bought shares in companies most likely to benefit from a global economic recovery.

Suzlon Energy Ltd., the nation’s biggest maker of wind-turbine generators, rose after saying it plans to expand output in China as it returns to profit this year. Infosys Techologies Ltd., a software services exporter that gets more than a fifth of sales in Europe, climbed for a seventh day to its highest level in at least 17 years as a forecast for faster European economic growth boosted confidence.
