Indian benchmark indices slip on Thursday

| | Oct 06, 2016, at 11:21 pm
Mumbai, Oct 6 (IBNS): Indian benchmark indices ended lower on Thursday largely due to profit booking by investors and a decline in key bank stocks, according to media reports.


Sensex was down 114.77 points at 28106.21 and Nifty was down 34.40 points at 8709.55.

The global market, which is already keeping an eye on the US elections and the upcoming earnings season, is also awaiting the US non-farm payrolls report on Friday which is likely to provide some clue about the US Federal Reserve's policy stance, media reported.

Key stocks that gained on Thursday were GAIL, Reliance, HUL, ONGC, Maruti and HDFC while Cipla, NTPC, M&M, Power Grid, Infosys and ICICI Bank ended among the losers.
