Indian indices
The Indian stocks lost grounds after gaining for two-straight sessions and shut shop in the red terrain. The domestic markets opened marginally lower and remained under pressure throughout the day. The markets registered heavy losses on the back of profit booking across the board. The indices tried to enter the green terrain in the morning hours but the efforts failed. Fall in the rupee and weak global cues also weighed on the market sentiments. All-round selling pressure across the board did put immense pressure in trade today. Heavyweights like Hindalco, Maruti, Tata Motors, Jindal Steel, M&M and SBI too were on the sellers' radar.

Movement of the Indian indices for the day:
The Indian markets broke two-day's gaining trend and closed today's trading session in the red zone. The broader indices also ended in the red zone resulting to a weak market breadth. All-round selling across the board also led the equities to trade with losses. Out of the 13 sectors only one sector closed in the green. Negative opening of the European markets also weighed on the market sentiments.

Adding further, weakness was seen in rate sensitive sectors as investors booked profit after the RBI chief reported media saying that inflation was "still quite high", denting hopes of a 50 basis points rate cut this month.

The Sensex shed 169.19 points to close at 19817.63 while the Nifty slipped 54.75 points to end at 6001.85.

Following are the stocks/sectors which were in news today:

  • Essar Oil rose after the company reported net profit of Rs32 crore for Q3 December 2012, as against net loss of Rs362 crore in Q3 December 2011. At end of the day, the stock closed 0.48% higher.
  • Bajaj Auto slipped after reporting almost 100 bps drop in operating margin for the third quarter ended December 2012 as compared to the previous corresponding period. At end of the day, the stock closed 2% lower.
  • Yes Bank fell, with the stock sliding on profit taking after net profit jumped 34.7% to Rs342.30 crore in Q3 December 2012 over Q3 December 2011. At end of the day, the stock closed 1.87% higher.
  • Tata Motors dropped, as global sales declined 13.88% to 98,968 units in December 2012 over December 2011. At end of the day, the stock closed 3.24% lower. 
Market sentiment
The market breadth stood in favor of declines. Of the 3067 stocks traded on the BSE, 938 (30.58%) rose, 2001 (65.24%) fell and 128 (4.17%) stocks remained unchanged.

Global signals

Europe's top shares opened lower today as investors continue to consolidate gains with indexes around mutli-month highs and near technically "overbought" territory, while sovereign risks remain a cloud on the horizon.

US stock index futures pointed towards a lower opening at the Wall Street on Wednesday.
