Other insurance stocks such as BIDV Insurance (BIC) and Petrolimex Insurance (PGI) added 0.7 per cent and 0.5 per cent, respectively.

Other gaining sectors included banking, food and beverage, plastics and chemicals, retail, and materials.

The large-cap group also made good gains as its tracker VN30-Index was up 0.44 per cent to 825.58 points. But mid-cap and small-cap stocks varied.

On the Ha Noi Stock Exchange, the HNX-Index fell 0.18 per cent to 125.62 points in the morning session.
