Stock market started flat, Sensex and Nifty also remained sluggish

Mumbai : Even before Diwali arrives, the trend of the stock market seems to be changing. There has been a lull in the market for the last few days. Even after the quarterly results of some big companies have come out, the market trend appears to be soft. Today, business was full of ups and downs in the pre-opening session. Investor sentiment was affected due to continuous outflow of foreign capital due to which the indices soon lost their initial gains.

In today's pre-opening session, both the indices of the domestic market have shown a slight rise. Sensex has risen 177.84 points in early trade to reach the level of 80,259.82 points. Besides, an increase of 45.15 points has also been seen in Nifty, after which it has reached the level of 24,480.65 points. However, the indices soon faced selling and started trading lower.

Among the 30 companies listed in the Sensex, Hindustan Unilever's shares have declined by more than 5 percent. Shares of Nestle, ICICI Bank, Bharti Airtel, Bajaj Finserv and Maruti also remained in the red. Shares of Mahindra & Mahindra, HDFC Bank, UltraTech Cement, Sun Pharma, Power Grid and HCL Tech have seen a rise.
