Indian indices
The markets were under pressure throughout the day on the account of weak global cues. This is the fifth straight day of lacklustre trade since the huge rally last Friday, when markets saw the biggest gains of 2012. After a three-day gaining trend, the key benchmark indices closed today's trading session in the negative zone backed by domestic and global cues. An attempt was made by the benchmark indices in the afternoon session to break into the green but failed to maintain it till the end of the day. The Sensex closed 17.55 points low while the Nifty dropped 10.35 points.

Movement of the Indian indices for the day:
The key benchmark indices kicked-off trade today on a negative note tracking weak global cues and depreciation in the rupee. Soon after the opening bell, markets hit their respective intraday low levels. Continuing the downward journey amid volatility, the markets traded lower for most part of the day.

A negative start by the European markets affected the market sentiments further. However, markets have pared losses in afternoon trades led by buying interest in banks and FMCG stocks. European markets too recouped losses after initial fall. Sensex moved up to 17,554.55 and Nifty rose to 5,327.20. Thereafter, as the rupee got depreciated by 53 paise to 55.47 per dollar, the bourses fell below the equator.

The market sentiments seemed cautious with a negative bias after China and the European Central Bank's initiatives did not receive the expected response from the global markets. Profit booking across sectors like technology, oil & gas, metals and infrastructure stocks also added to the downward pressure and indices registered their respective intraday lows. Sensex fell as low at 17,425.47 and Nifty declined to 5,287.75.

Indian markets seem to be very cautious just ahead of the earnings' season. The broader market ended trade on a negative note. At the end of trade, the BSE Midcap index declined by 0.56%, while the BSE Smallcap index was down by 0.21%. The overall market breadth at close was negative. The Sensex closed at 17521.12, down by 17.55 points and the Nifty fell 10.35 points to close at 5316.95.

Following are the stocks/sectors which were in news today:
  • Ballarpur Industries was trading higher, as the company said that it will transfer two paper units to its arm and list it overseas as per demands by FII shareholders. The stock closed with marginal gains of 0.23%
  • India Cements went up, after promoters increased stake in the company by 2.47% to 28.24%. The stock closed 0.87% higher.
  • Marico gained almost 3% and also its lifetime high, after the company said that the foreign investor - First State Investment Management - has acquired almost two million shares via an open market deal. The stock closed 0.66% higher.
  • Jain Irrigation gained over 5% to Rs92.35, after obtaining regulatory approval from RBI to launch a new non-banking finance company (NBFC), which will focus on farm sector and operate in rural and semi-urban areas. The stock closed 2.17% higher.

Currency movement for the day:
Talking about the currency, Indian rupee fell by 54 paise or 1% to 55.48 to the dollar and Euro declined 0.11% to 1.2369 against the US dollar. 


Market Outlook: Data to be released in the US on Friday: Employment Situation
