Mumbai, Mar 8 (IBNS) Weak global cues and choppy trading on Tuesday forced the Indian benchmark indices to remain subdued, with the Sensex up a marginal 12.75 points to close at 24659.23 and the Nifty down 0.05 points to 7485.30.

The market was closed on Monday owing to public holiday.

On Tuesday, banking stocks saw selling pressure.

Bank of Baroda, State Bank of India, HUL, Maruti Suzuki and HCL Technologies were some of the top losers

Top gainers included Cairn India, Hindalco, GAIL, Vedanta and Lupin.

March 8 being International Women's Day, the country's largest public sector lender, the State Bank of India (SBI)), in a bid to encourage women entrepreneurs and promote greater usage of banking services by women, said that it has decided to set up one all-woman branch in every district. The bank has already opened 14 such branches – one in each regional hub.
