NEW DELHI: Indian benchmark BSE Sensex fell over 75 points in early trade on Tuesday as stocks of oil and gas, PSU, metal, healthcare and banking companies succumbed to profit-booking after two sessions of gains.
The 30-share index declined by 75.33 points or 0.27% to 27,611.97. In the previous two sessions, the gauge gained 481.24 points.
In a similar fashion, the NSE Nifty edged down by 30.85 points or 0.36% to 8,342.80.
Brokers said emergence of profit-booking after recent gains and reports that foreign funds have been net sellers on the bourses mainly dampened the sentiments.
However, among other Asian bourses, Hong Kong Hang Seng was up by 0.48%, while Japan’s Nikkei gained 0.68% in early trade today tracking overnight gains in the US.
