Indian markets reversed their early gains and were trading negative with Sensex sliding more than 220 points. 

At 1034 hours, Sensex was trading at 32,260.91 below 139.60 points or 0.43%, while Nifty 50 tumbled over 53 points or 0.52% trading at 10,088.15. 

In first half an hour of Thursday's trading session, Sensex was at 32461.93 higher by 61 points or 0.18%, while the Nifty 50 was above 17 points or 0.17% at 10158.45.

In pre-market opening, the 31-scrip index was trading lower at 32,406-level and that of 51-scrip index was below 10,140-mark. 

Among gainers on BSE Dr Reddy's Laboratories took lead by trading at Rs 2378.55 per piece above Rs 78 or 3.37% as rating-agency Morgan Stanley raises the company's stock to overweight. 

Other gainers were Cipla at Rs 577 per piece (1.50%), Sun Pharma at Rs 512.75 per piece (1.24%), Lupin at Rs 1012.75 per piece (1.05%) and Tata Steel at Rs 691.40 per piece (0.55%).

Analysts at Motilal Oswal said, "Sectors like Pharma, software,oil and gas, banks and financials could continueto see investment interest."

However, Indian Rupee fell to 10-week low as hawkish comments from the Federal Reserve on Wednesday bolstered the dollar and spurred declines in emerging-market assets, reported in Bloomberg. 

The rupee was trading at 64.480 down 0.095 paisa or 0.15% against the US benchmark dollar index. 

US Federal Reserave meet on Wednesday were on expected lines - interest rates were kept unchanged but possibility of one rate hike by December end remains.  Also, Fed has given timeline for balance sheet shrinkage beginning with $10 billion from October. 

Motilal said, "Given that the balance sheet shrinkage will happen gradually, markets should view it positively."
