MUMBAI: The Indian stock market settled in negative territory on Thursday following selling in IT and banking stocks amid Q1 earnings, and FII outflows due to trade deal concerns.
Sensex ended the session at 82, 259.24, down 375.24 points or 0.45 per cent against last day's closing of 82, 634.48. The 30-share index opened slightly up at 82, 753.53, but dragged in negative territory amid selling in IT, and banking heavyweights like TCS, Infosys, and HDFC Bank.

Nifty settled at 25, 111.45, down 100.60 points or 0.40 per cent.
