Retail stocks remain bear as Sensex goes red

Must Read

The benchmark index of the Bombay Stock Exchange, the Sensex, after rising by over 379 points in the early session of trade Tuesday morning, once again failed to retain the momentum.

The early rise was credited to RBI’s decision to allow Indian banks to lend more and inject more money into the beleaguered financial markets. The central bank, on Monday, allowed banks to reduce their cash reserve ratios by half a percentage point.

Indiabulls Retail performed in the red too as it dipped 4.89 per cent to close at Rs 38.90.

Koutons Retail, after touching a day’s high of Rs 669, ended up losing 3.66 per cent from its previous close, to shut at Rs 635.85. Provogue, however, managed to escape from incurring heavy losses. The stock closed at Rs 135.00, below 1.85 per cent.

While Liberty Shoes closed at Rs 52.10, Relaxo Footwears dipped Rs 1.35 (-4.03%) to close at Rs 32.15.
