Sensex closed 106 points, or 0.16 percent, lower at 65,846.50, while the Nifty concluded 26 points, or 0.13 percent, lower at 19,570.85, halting a two-day winning streak for both.
Mid and small-caps stocks outperformed the Sensex. The BSE Midcap index finished 0.15 percent higher, while the Smallcap index rose 0.25 percent.
In the Asian market, Seoul, Shanghai, and Hong Kong finished lower, while Tokyo concluded higher.
The European markets were trading in the red.
