The S&P BSE Sensex was down 73.48 points to close at 81,151.27, while the NSE Nifty50 lost 72.95 points to end at 24,781.10.

Bajaj Auto, HDFC Bank, Asian Paints, and Mahindra and Mahindra were among the top gainers on the Nifty index. Tata Consumers, Kotak Bank, BPCL, and Bajaj Finserv were among the top losers.
