Domestic equity benchmarks registered minor losses on Tuesday, retreating from record closing highs registered in the previous session, amid selling pressure in financial stocks such as State Bank of India (SBI), ICICI Bank (ICICIBANK) and Bharti Airtel (BHARTIARTL). However, buying interest in several other index heavyweights including Larsen & Toubro (LT), Infosys (INFY) and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) lent some support to both main gauges.
As many as 28 stocks in the 50-scrip Nifty universe finished the day below the flatline, with Shriram Finance (SHRIRAMFIN) being the worst hit with a loss of 3.0 per cent.
