Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty ended lower on Wednesday after three days of rally due to selling pressure in HDFC Bank and unabated foreign fund outflows.
The 30-share BSE Sensex declined 117.58 points or 0.16% to settle at 72,987.03. During the day, it lost 281.95 points or 0.38% to 72,822.66.
Bharti Airtel, Power Grid, NTPC, Mahindra & Mahindra, Larsen & Toubro and HCL Technologies were among the major gainers.
