Stock's Talk: Indian Stock Market BSE NSE

BSE 12575.80 -100.39 -0.79%
NSE 3,816.70 -44.40 -1.16%

It was yet another gloomy day, as market key indices broke important levels. Poor global cues along with selling pressure at higher levels and lack of buying interest in the market back home, forced the indices to newer 2008-lows during trade. Sensex ended the day at 12,575, down 100 points from the previous close. Nifty shut shop at 3816, down 44 points. CNX Midcap and BSE Smallcap indices lost 1.1% and 1.7% respectively. The market was dragged down by realty stocks, though FMCG and healthcare stocks tried to give some support. Biggest losers on the Sensex include DLF, JP Associates, Mahindra & Mahindra and HDFC, while gainers were Ranbaxy (after the management's clarifications on the US FDA issue in the morning), ONGC and Bharti Airtel, among others.
