Indian equity markets were dragged by over half a percent lower today(9th ASept.2020) mainly due to weak global cues, concerns over India-China tensions, and unwelcome news on the COVID front. The S&P BSE Sensex slid 300 points to 38,060 levels and the Nifty50 index gave up the 11,250-mark. ONGC and Tata Steel (both down 3 percent) were the top Sensex laggards. On the other hand, Reliance Industries rose 1 percent after announcing that Silver Lake would invest Rs 7,500 crore in Reliance Retail. Meanwhile, AstraZeneca Pharma tumbled 12 percent after the company "voluntarily paused" a randomized clinical trial of its coronavirus vaccine in what it called a routine action after a volunteer developed an unexplained illness. IRCTC shares also slid 4 percent in early deals after the company said the government plans to sell about 15-20 percent stake via offer for sale (OFS) and would like to complete the transaction in a minimum number of tranches.

The trend among the Nifty sectoral indices was dominantly negative, led by Nifty Metal index, down 3 per cent.

Forty-five companies, including Indiabulls Ventures, and Eveready Industries are scheduled to announce their June quarter earnings today.
