The market continued to reel under pressure with the Nifty50 falling decisively below the crucial 18,300 mark which had been holding smartly in the recent past, tracking nervousness in the global counterparts on November 21.
The BSE Sensex corrected more than 500 points to 61,145, and the Nifty50 fell nearly 150 points to 18,160, while the broader markets ended flat amid negative breadth. About five shares declined against three rising shares on the NSE.
The volatility index India VIX has risen by 2.83 percent to 14.80 levels, but still remained below 15 mark which can still be supportive for the market.
