MUMBAI, Sept 25 (Reuters): The BSE Sensex and Nifty fell for a third consecutive session on Thursday, as lenders and other coal-related firms remained under pressure a day after the Supreme Court scrapped all but four of 218 coal blocks allocated by the government since 1993.
The BSE Sensex closed 1.03 per cent lower at 26,468.36 points, while the Nifty ended down 1.13 per cent at 7,911.85.
Caution also prevailed due to the expiry of monthly derivatives contracts.
Banking stocks led the decliners with heavyweights such as State Bank of India (SBI) slumping 4.4 per cent and ICICI Bank ending 3.4 per cent lower as investors interpreted the court ruling as a negative for the sector.
