Sensex drops nearly 115 points in early trade; Nifty tests 17,800

Mumbai, Feb 9 (PTI) Equity benchmark Sensex dropped nearly 115 points in early trade on Thursday tracking losses in index heavyweights Maruti, Tata Motors and Reliance industries amid mixed global cues.

Besides, a weak rupee against major rivals and persistent foreign capital outflows impacted domestic equity market sentiments, traders said.

In a volatile trade, the 30-share BSE index was trading 113.77 points or 0.19 per cent lower at 60,550.02 in early deals. Similarly, the broader NSE Nifty slipped 63.70 points or 0.36 per cent to 17,808.
