Thu, 28 Oct 01:30 pm

Share markets in India have extended early losses and are presently trading deep in the red.

Asian shares plunged with the Shanghai Composite and Nikkei both falling over 1%.

Meanwhile, market experts also suggested that the upcoming IPOs of Nykaa and Paytm totalling around Rs 240 bn are likely to witness enthusiastic investor response and this will drain away some liquidity from the secondary market.

The BSE Sensex fell almost 800 points, or 1.3% to 60,345 levels. Meanwhile, the NSE Nifty fell to 17,960-mark.

Presently, the is trading down by 710 points, down 1.2%. Meanwhile, the is trading down by 244 points.

The sell-off is seen particularly in the realty, metal and energy stocks.

Shares of ITC and Titan fell over 4%, while ICICI Bank and Axis Bank fell over 2%.

Broader markets also cooled down after the recent runup. Both, the BSE Midcap index and the BSE Smallcap index fell 1%.
