Among the laggards were Nifty’s IT, auto and public sector bank indexes, which declined 0.2% to 0.7%.
One 97 Communications slid 9% as a term sheet reviewed by Reuters showed SoftBank Group aims to sell an up to $215 million stake in the Paytm parent. Tata Motors fell 2.4% as it said its top boss at Jaguar Land Rover unit, Thierry Bollore, will resign due to personal reasons.
The MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was down 1.47% as stronger-than-expected retail sales data renewed expectations that the Fed will keep hiking rates and fuelled concerns about the economic outlook.
Softer-than-expected U.S. inflation data last week gave investors some solace that the Fed could curb its aggressive interest rate hikes, but the stronger October U.S. retail sales could dash those hopes.
Underscoring the Fed’s hawkish stance, San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly told CNBC on Wednesday pausing rate hikes is not yet part of the discussion.
“The U.S. Fed indicating that the rate hike situation may not stop soon could trigger bouts of volatility,” said Prashanth Tapse, vice president of research at Mehta Equities.
Crude oil declined further in Asia after settling more than a dollar lower overnight as Russian oil shipments via the Druzhba pipeline to Hungary restarted.
Separately, on Thursday, R Systems International jumped 20% as Blackstone said it would buy a 52% stake in the IT services provider for $359 million.
Foreign institutional investors on Wednesday continued to sell stock in a second straight session, according to provisional data available with the National Stock Exchange.

Sensex erases losses, trades flat
Directional moves have gone missing in the last few days. Amidst this, though bullish patterns are intact,it might require dips to be more substantial to invite larger upmoves. Towards this end, 18280 or even 18000 will be in the radar. Alternatively, direct rise above 18460/80 could revive hopes of 18800, though18530 and 18604 will remain initial challenges.

The fact that Sensex and Nifty are at record closing highs tells us that the Buy on Dips strategy has worked well in this market. Therefore, this strategy can be expected to work, going forward, too. High quality stocks in banking, IT, telecom and capital goods form the backbone of this large-cap driven rally. Dips in this segment are likely to get bought. India is the only large market that crossed previous record highs. This will stand the market in good stead. Even though the mother market US has turned a bit weak, the sustained fall in US bond yields is a positive for emerging markets like India. The mid- and small-cap indices are likely to remain weak.
