Domestic sentiment was also hit due to uncertainty sparked by the country's move to withdraw larger banknotes from circulation.  

At 1.20 p.m., the 30-share BSE index Sensex was down 554.12 points or 2,01 per cent at 27,037.02 and the 50-share NSE index Nifty was down 182.85 points or 2.14 per cent at 8,360.70.  

Among BSE sectoral indices, realty index plunged the most by 13.76 per cent, consumer durables 7.08 per cent, infrastructure 4.36 per cent and auto 4.28 per cent.  

Major Sensex losers were Adani Ports (-6.34%), Hero MotoCorp (-6.31%), ICICI Bank (-5.37%), TCS (-4.81%) and Maruti (-4.35%).  

Early trade  

The Sensex opened sharply lower at 26,251.38 points and moved further down within seconds to touch a low of 25,902.45 points — down 1,689 points from its previous close — with all 30 stocks from the benchmark index trading deep in the red.  

However, buying at lower levels helped the Sensex to recover some lost ground in the afternoon trade.  

The overall investors’ wealth, measured in terms of valuation of all listed stocks, was down by nearly Rs. 6 lakh crore in early morning trade from nearly Rs. 111.44 lakh crore at the end of yesterday’s trade.
