Indian stock market ended in the negative territory for the third consecutive session on Monday, July 28. Heavy FPI selling, weak earnings, and persisting concerns over India-US trade talks kept market sentiment low.

The BSE Midcap index also fell by 0.73 per cent, while the Smallcap index plunged by 1.31 per cent.
Investors lost nearly ₹4 lakh crore in a single session as the overall market capitalisation of firms listed on the BSE dropped to about ₹448 lakh crore from ₹451.7 lakh crore in the previous session.
