Eighteen shares advanced in the Nifty pack, while thirty-one declined and one stock closed unchanged.

BPCL led losses to close 3.2 percent lower while Coal India, Infosys, ONGC and SBI all fell over 1 percent.

Among the prominent gainers, Tata Consumer Products jumped 4.6 percent on merger news and Tata Motors rallied 3.4 percent while Adani Enterprises, Nestle India and Bajaj Auto rose 1-2 percent.
