Most of the Asian markets were subdued fearing terrorists attacks in Pakistan might see withdrawal of foreign money from the region. However, the benchmark Sensex index moved up by 42 points to touch the day's high of 20,259 quickly, only to lose further ground in the absence of buying interest in frontline shares on rising geo-political concerns. The Sensex shed all its gains thereafter and touched the day's low of 20,023. But, recovered on some buying interest towards the close. After recovering around 190 points from the day's low the Sensex ended the session by shedding 10 points at 20,207. The Nifty closed the session by slipping two points at 6,080.
