Sensex falls 159 points in early trade

MUMBAI: The benchmark BSE Sensex fell over 159 points in early trade on Monday on continued capital outflows by foreign funds and selling by retail investors after industrial production growth slowed to five-month low in August amid a weak trend overseas. 

The 30-share barometer declined by 159.35 points, or 0.61 per cent, to 26,138.03 with realty, metal, auto, capital goods and banking stocks, leading the fall. 

The index had plunged 339.90 points in the previous session on Friday.
