Closing bell: Sensex, Nifty end in red

Due to ongoing outflows of foreign funds and fresh worries about tariffs, the Sensex and Nifty 50 closed Monday’s trading session down.

The top 12 listed banks in the nation are tracked by the Nifty Bank index, which closes flat with a negative bias. It ended at 49,981.00, down 0.35 percent, or below 177.85 points.
