Closing Bell: Sensex down 774 points, Nifty at 17891.95

At Close, the Sensex was down 773.69 points or 1.27% at 60,205.06, and the Nifty was down 226.30 points or 1.25% at 17,892, as equity markets succumbed to severe selling pressure on Wednesday led by losses in financial stocks and the monthly F&O expiry that weakened investor sentiment. Adani Ports, SBI, IndusInd Bank, HDFC Bank, and Cipla were among the biggest losers on the Nifty, while gainers were Hindalco Industries, Maruti Suzuki, Bajaj Auto, HUL, and Tata Steel. About 1106 shares have advanced, 2310 shares declined, and 129 shares are unchanged. Within sectors, the Nifty PSB index tanked 3.6 percent followed by bank and financial indices. Auto, metals, and FMCG pockets closed nearly flat with fractional cuts. In the broader market, the BSE midcap index cracked 1.5 percent while smallcap index lost around 1 percent.
