Indian markets close lower

Xinhua,February 06, 2018 Adjust font size:

MUMBAI, Feb. 6 (Xinhua) -- Indian markets closed lower Tuesday.

Sensex cracked below the 34,000 mark by plunging about 1,275 points in opening trade this morning mainly due to sell-off in world markets.

However, during the late trading session, the index managed to recover some of the lost ground.

The benchmark S&P BSE Sensex closed at 34,195.94, 561.22 points or 1.61 percent down compared to its previous close at 34,757.16. Enditem
