Mumbai: Equity benchmark Sensex tanked 372 points Thursday, tracking losses in index majors L&T, Infosys and TCS amid a negative trend in global markets.

On the other hand, SBI, PowerGrid, HDFC Bank, Reliance Industries and HUL were among the gainers.
The domestic sentiment was impacted by the negative cues from other Asian markets coupled with inflationary pressures partially driven by a surging trend in energy prices, said Likhita Chepa, Senior Research Analyst, Capitalvia Global Research.
Elsewhere in Asia, bourses in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Seoul ended with losses.
Stock exchanges in Europe were largely trading with gains in mid-session deals.
