The Sensex eventually ended the day 100 points lower at 23,962.21 while NSE's Nifty50 index settled at 7,276.80, down 0.44 per cent or 32.50 points. The gains on the Sensex were led by Axis Bank 5.21 % (5.21%), Wipro (1.72%), Infosys (1.32%) SBI (1.24%) and Tata Steel (1.23%).
India's largest automaker Maruti Suzuki lost 4 per cent, which emerged the biggest loser in the Sensex pack along with Dr Reddy's Lab and Tata Motors (down 4 per cent), Coal India and ONGC (down 3 per cent each) and HUL 2.47 % (down 2.5 per cent).
