Equity indices fell in early trade on Wednesday following weak global market trends ahead of the keenly awaited U.S. Fed policy meeting outcome on interest rates.
The 30-share BSE Sensex declined 227.93 points to 59,491.81 in initial trade. The NSE Nifty went lower by 55.05 points to 17,761.20.
However, later both the benchmark indices turned choppy.
Among the 30-share Sensex pack, IndusInd Bank, Infosys, HDFC, ICICI Bank, TCS and Kotak Mahindra Bank were the biggest laggards.
However, Nestle, Hindustan Unilever, Maruti and Mahindra & Mahindra were among the gainers.
Elsewhere in Asia, markets in Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai and Hong Kong were trading lower.
The U.S. markets had ended in the negative territory on Tuesday.
