    India's Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE) will be closed today for any trading activity including currency, debt and equity, on account of Ram Navami holiday.

    Financial markets will resume trading on Friday, 3 April.

    The first day of the financial year started on a weak note for the markets, with NSE Nifty 50 index closed down 4% at 8,253.8 and the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex ended 4.08% lower at 28,265.31.

    Banks and IT stocks led the blue chip losers with Tech Mahindra plunged 9.21% to 512, followed by Kotak Mahindra Bank, which fell 8.81% to 1,182. TCS, Infosys and Axis Bank were among the other major losers. Meanwhile gainers were Hero MotoCorp, Grasim, Bajaj Auto, Bajaj Finance, Yes Bank and Titan Company.
