Here are 10 key things to know about the January 6 session: 

1) Thirty nine stocks in the Nifty50 basket finished lower. JSW Steel, TCS, IndusInd Bank, Bajaj Finance, Bajaj Finserv, Tech Mahindra, Coal India, Kotak Mahindra Bank and Infosys -- finishing between 1.7 per cent and three per cent lower -- were the top laggards. On the other hand, Britannia, Reliance, M&M, BPCL, ONGC, Nestle, Bajaj Auto and ITC -- rising between 0.5 per cent and 1.2 per cent -- were the top gainers.

2) TCS, Infosys, ICICI Bank and HDFC together contributed more than 250 points to the loss in the 30-scrip index.

3) Barring the Nifty FMCG and the Nifty Consumer Durables, which saw minor gains, all of NSE's sectoral gauges succumbed to negative territory.

4) The Nifty IT -- whose 10 constituents include IT majors TCS, Infosys and Wipro -- closed with loss of two per cent.

5) The Nifty Bank and the Nifty Metal gauges fell one per cent each. 

6) Overall market breadth turned from largely neutral to negative in the second half of the day. At the close, the advance-decline ratio on BSE stood at 7:10, as 1,424 stocks rose and 2,084 fell. 

7) The rupee depreciated by 16 paise or 0.2 per cent to settle at 82.72 against the greenback. 

8) Crude oil rose on hopes of a boost in demand from China. Brent futures were last up 0.6 per cent at $79.2 a barrel.

9) European shares began the day on a mixed note, but were on track to log their best week in eight, as investors awaited euro zone inflation and US jobs figures for clarity on the future course of rate hikes. The UK's FTSE 100 was up 0.3 per cent at the last count. France's CAC was up 0.2 per cent and Germany's DAX down 0.1 per cent.
