2) In the 50-stock Nifty50, 39 stocks declined. The top gainers were Adani Enterprises, TCS, Reliance Industries, Axis Bank and Indusind Bank while top losers were SBI Life, Eicher Motors, UPL, Tata Motors and Hindustan Unilever.

3) All 15 Nifty Sectoral indices ended today's session in the red. Nifty PSU Bank (-1.57 per cent), Nifty Auto (-1.52 per cent) and Nifty Realty (-1.44 per cent) were the worst performers in the pack.

4) India VIX, a measure of volatility in Nifty was up 5.44 per cent at 14.99.

5) Selling pressure was seen in in broader markets too. Nifty Mid Cap 100 and Nifty Small Cap 100 ended down 0.87 and 0.75 per cent respectively. In the 100-stock Mid Cap 100, 40 stocks advanced, 59 declined and 1 remained unchanged.

7) The rupee depreciated 13 paise to settle at 82.75 (provisional) against the US dollar on Tuesday as investors turned cautious in view of a negative trend in domestic equities and rising crude prices in the global markets. Besides, renewed forex outflows and a waning appetite for riskier assets also dragged down the local unit, forex dealers said. However, a sharp decline in the greenback against major rivals overseas restricted the rupee's loss, they added. At the interbank forex market, the local unit opened weak at 82.69 against the greenback and witnessed an intra-day high of 82.69 and a low of 82.88. It finally ended at 82.75 against the American currency, a decline of 13 paise over its previous close of 82.62. PTI
