The benchmark indices erased almost all their losses to end marginally in the red, amid a volatile session of trading, as the regulatory crackdowns in China continued to impact investor sentiment. The BSE Sensex oscillated in a broad range of more than 800 points between an intra-day low of 51,802.73 and a high of 52,673.69 before ending at 52,443.71, lower by 135.05 points or 0.26 per cent. The NSE Nifty swung between 15,513.45 and 15,767.50 before closing at 15,709.40, down 37.05 points or 0.24 per cent.
The broader markets also rebounded towards the end of trade, with the BSE Midcap index ending flat and the BSE Smallcap index shedding 0.4 per cent.
The benchmark indices had a gap-down opening and shaved off more than 1 per cent in the late-morning session as regulatory crackdowns in China roiled technology, property and education sectors across Asia. However, a stable opening in the European markets, including the CAC, DAX and FTSE, led to an intra-day recovery on Dalal Street.
