Broadly negative global cues, coupled with a weak rupee and heavy
selling pressure witnessed in banking, automobile and capital goods
stocks, subdued investors' sentiments and pulled the Indian equities
markets lower on Monday.
The wider 51-scrip Nifty of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) edged down by 42.80 points or 0.48 per cent to 8,896.70 points.
The
barometer 30-scrip sensitive index (Sensex) of the BSE, which opened at
28,910.50 points, provisionally closed at 28,812.88 points (at 3.30
p.m) -- down 80.09 points or 0.28 per cent, from the previous close at
28,892.97 points.
The Sensex touched a high of 28,961.83 points and a low of 28,791.19 points during the intra-day trade.
The BSE market breadth was tilted in favour of the bears -- with 1,520 declines and 1,267 advances.
On
February 23, the benchmark indices closed on a flat-to-positive note as
inflow of foreign funds and rupee appreciation buoyed investors'
sentiments.
The NSE Nifty rose by 12.60 points or 0.14 per cent
to close at 8,939.50 points, and the BSE Sensex was up 28.26 points or
0.10 per cent at 28,892.97 points.
