Ishant Sharma (15 not out) and Munaf Patel (14no) to resume on Saturday.
"Probably 320-330 would be a fairer reflection on the day for us," admitted all-rounder James Franklin, who took his first wicket of the series when he had Gautam Gambhir (23) trapped lbw shortly after morning drinks.
"But Harbhajan played his luck and got away with it and so did Zaheer. They've shown in the last couple of games that the tail can wag and it did that today.At 204 for six early in the final session the Indians added another 171 runs for the loss of three wickets as the flagging New Zealand bowlers struggled to close out the visitors' innings.

India vs New Zealand 3rd Test Day 2 live streaming
"I am improving as a batsman. I am working hard at the nets so that I can score a hundred some day. Maybe at this point in time I am not good enough yet to make it happen," added Harbhajan who had taken 323 wickets and scored six half centuries in Test cricket so far.
His disappointment though was something he could live with considering the contribution he has made in difficult conditions for the team.
"But I am happy with my contributions with the bat. When the team needed runs badly at Nagpur, Sydney, Bangalore and here, I have put up my hands. I think it is important for me, Zaheer (Khan) and Ishant (Sharma) to stay at the wicket with the batsmen and score those crucial runs," said Harbhajan.However, the feisty off-spinner has bailed out India from trouble with his willow more than once including in the third Test against New Zealand on Friday."I am very upset. I should have got century. It was my best chance to score one," he said after hitting 60 to help India reach 375 for nine on the opening day.
