Equity benchmark indices swung between gains and losses to close 0.4 per cent lower on April 23 as traders seemed reluctant to carry gains into the weekend amid rising COVID-19 cases.
Investors said the surging infections triggered fears about stricter restrictions which may dent business activity in near-term.
The BSE SandP Sensex closed 202 points or 0.42 per cent lower at 47,878 while the Nifty 50 slipped by 65 points or 0.45 per cent to 14,341.
Except for Nifty PSU bank, all sectoral indices at the National Stock Exchange were in the negative terrain with Nifty realty dipping by 1.1 per cent, FMCG by 0.9 per cent IT by 0.8 per cent and auto by 0.5 per cent.
Among stocks, FMCG major Britannia dropped by 2.6 per cent to Rs 3,651.80 per share while Hindustan Unilever fell by 1.7 per cent to Rs 2,309.
As the trading session commenced on April 19th, both the Sensex and the Nifty continued their downward trend for the fifth consecutive day, fueled by reports of Israel's recent missile launch on Iran. This event triggered a surge in oil and gold prices, heightening concerns about the global economy. Concurrently, the commencement of Lok Sabha elections added to the domestic landscape. The Indian rupee also opened at a historic low of 83.55 per Dollar.

Market pressure persisted for the third consecutive session as key indices, including Sensex, Nifty, and Nifty Bank, witnessed notable declines. The midcap index closed in the red despite performing relatively better. Geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel contributed to the market downturn. US stock futures dipped after major benchmarks suffered losses, while European and Asia-Pacific markets also experienced significant drops.
