The Indian stock market indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, ended lower on Tuesday, snapping their five day winning streak amid negative global cues. “Key indices scaled record highs, but failed to capitalise as lack of cues due to closure of US markets on Monday saw investors book profit in IT, telecom, realty and power stocks, which halted the recent upsurge.

Weak Asian and European market cues coupled with a sharp fall in rupee against the dollar also dented the sentiment, which prompted investors to trim their equity exposure," Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities Ltd, said. Additionally, India’s largest private sector lender HDFC Bank, registered a 2.5 per cent sequential growth in net profit at 16,372.54 crore for the December quarter, partly affected by higher bad loan provisions.

Net interest income grew by 4 per cent sequentially to 28,471 crore during the quarter. Livemint tops charts as the fastest growing news website in the world to know more. Unlock a world of Benefits!
