Sharp selling in frontline stocks saw Indian stock market benchmarks end near psychological support levels Tuesday. The decline was led by IT and realty stocks while pharma sector showed strength on the back of Biocon- Pfizer deal.

Indices opened on firm note but failed to build on to it due to lack of support from global peers. While the benchmarks remained choppy, traders continued to buy stocks from midcap and small cap space. However, the bulls were caught off-guard as foreign investors pressed sales in last one hour of trade.

National Stock Exchange’s Nifty ended at 6,027.30, down 48.65 points.The index touched a low of 6,008.15 and high of 6,127.05.

Bombay Stock Exchange’s Sensex closed at 19,983.13, down 185.76 points. The index touched a low of 19,923.
96 and high of 20,332.02.
Market has been moving up due excess of liquidity from foreign investors. At these levels the valuations look stretched. We are expecting a sharp correction post Coal India IPO as even the good results by companies are finding it difficult to take the stock prices higher.
BSE Midcap Index and BSE Small cap Index closed up 0.24 per cent each.

Sectorally, BSE IT Index fell 2.22 per cent, BSE Realty Index slipped 1.75 per cent and BSE Metal Index declined 1.25 per cent. BSE Healthcare Index shot up 1.06 per cent.

Sensex losers included Infosys Technologies (-3.09%), Hindalco (2.79%), DLF (-2.74%), Tata Steel (-2.15%) NTPC (-1.69%) were the top Nifty losers.
