In the Sensex pack, 20 stocks were trading in the green while 10 declined. Titan, Bharti Airtel and L&T were among the major gainers.
Most Asian markets were trading lower on Tuesday as investors continued to grapple with the fallout of bank failures in the US. Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank have collapsed, sparking concerns of a financial contagion amid central banks hiking rates to tame inflation.
In a pre-market note, Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research at HDFC securities, said Indian markets could open flat to marginally up, despite mostly negative Asian markets today and largely lower US markets on Monday.
Sensex and Nifty have declined for three straight sessions and on Monday, Sensex crashed 897.28 points or 1.52 per cent to settle at 58,237.85 points. Nifty tanked 258.60 points or 1.49 per cent to end at 17,154.30 points.
Both indices closed at their lowest levels in five months.
According to Jasani, investors reassessed the outlook for interest rates after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank in California and New York’s Signature Bank, which left regional bank shares under heavy pressure.
On Monday, European market and most US stocks closed in the red.
Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were net sellers on Monday, offloading domestic equities worth Rs 1,546.86 crore, according to exchange data.
