from peers, as concerns over no immediate relief from rising crude oil prices after Russia and Saudi Arabia’s crude output comments and
weakening rupee weighed on the domestic sentiment. The NSE Nifty50 index was trading 100 points down at 11,043 around 10:15 am
The 30-share BSE Sensex was down 267 points at 36,574 around the same time. In the Sensex index, 12 stocks were advancing and 19 were
declining
ONGC, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, Coal India, Vedanta and Hindustan Unilever were among the heavyweights that were trading with gains. However,
IndusInd Bank, Ultratech Cement, Maruti Suzuki India, Mahindra Mahindra and HDFC were among the top heavyweight losers.
