Besides, reports of IT notices to some global fund houses have also subdued investors’ sentiment.

Notably, on last Friday, the FIIs sold stocks worth Rs 3,356.17 crore on the BSE, the NSE and the MSEI in the capital market segment.

Globally, shares were mixed in Asia on Monday after troubled Chinese property developer Evergrande warned late Friday it may run out of money.

However, European stock markets climbed higher on Monday, struggling off concerns about the Omicron Covid-19 variant.

On the domestic front, IT, Telecom, Auto, Realty, Healthcare, Oil & Gas and FMCG indices fell the most.

“The downtrend may be close to its end going by the number of days it has lasted so far (33).The upward recovery could be slow, however.”

According to Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services: “Overall, we expect market volatility to remain high until there is clarity on the impact of the new virus.”
