The market went into a correction mode and remained in the negative territory all through the session. Weak global markets and rising crude prices weighed on the sentiment. Despite resuming 33 points above its previous close, the Sensex went into a major correction mode on account of selling in heavyweights, banks, information technology, and oil stocks. The index slipped below 19,600 mark by afternoon and a strong bout of selling towards the close saw the Sensex touch the day's low of 19,502. However, select buying towards the close saw the Sensex pare some losses and end the session at 19,591, down 1.93% or 385 points, while the Nifty shed 85 points or 1.43% and closed at 5,847.
