    Indian equity benchmarks traded mostly in green for most part of the day but ended in red with Nifty slipping below 10,250 mark. The brutal sell-off in last hour of trade dragged the markets lower with Sensex falling around 400 points and Nifty closing at fresh 2018 low.

    Banking shares were under pressure with Nifty PSU bank index hitting 52-week low of 2,917.

    On the global front, Asian shares regained some ground on Tuesday after US President Donald Trump faced growing pressure from political allies to pull back from proposed steel and aluminum tariffs, easing investor worries about an imminent trade war.
