But Nifty realty gained by 1.6 per cent and auto by 0.9 per cent.

Among stocks, HDFC Bank dropped by 1.2 per cent to close at Rs 1,591.90 per share.

Axis Bank closed 0.7 per cent lower and IndusInd Bank by 0.4 per cent.

Tata Steel lost by 1.1 per cent a day after the company reported a consolidated profit of Rs 3,989 crore for the quarter ended December 2020 driven by improved realisation-backed strong operating income.
