As reported, 5.82 billion shares at the value of 95.425 trillion rials ($489.3 million) were exchanged on Saturday.
IFX, the main index of Iran’s over-the-counter (OTC) market, known as Iran Fara Bourse (IFB), improved 829 units on the same day and reached 16,031 points.
Some 2.647 billion shares at the value of 48.849 trillion rials ($250.50 million) were traded at IFB.
Some describe the surge in stock market indices as a consequence of the Saturday's drop in foreign currency rates and gold prices at Iran's domestic market.
