Frasers Group was the top gainer after Boohoo shareholders voted overwhelmingly against the appointment to the board of Mike Ashley and restructuring expert Mike Lennon.
Just under 64% of shareholders voted against each of the proposed appointments.
In a number of open letters, Frasers had urged Boohoo to make both appointments, having criticised the company’s "dismal" interim results and "long-term mismanagement".
Water companies were under the cosh, having gained on Thursday after regulator Ofwat announced its final determination for the five-year period to 2030, saying that average bills would increase by 36% in England and Wales, the equivalent of around £31 per year.
Severn Trent and United Utilities were the worst performers on the index.
