Markets closed in the negative territory for the fifth consecutive day as FIIs have turned net sellers in cash segment and index futures.
This comes in the wake of concerns of economic recovery amid weak economic data and emerging political uncertainties.
Also, weak Asian cues compounded the negative sentiment.
For the day, the Sensex was down 94 points or 0.5% at 20,693 and the Nifty gave off 29 points to end the day at 6,162.
