Mumbai, May 23 (IBNS) Indian markets, which opened on a buoyant note on Monday erased its early gains soon after to finally end the day lower, with Sensex down 71.54 points to 25230.36 and Nifty down 18.65 points to 7731.05.

According to experts, the market is cautiously awaiting the arrival of the monsoon in India and the outcome of the US Fed policy in June.

The market is worried that if the US Fed raises borrowing costs, emerging market pay see a decline in investments.

On Monday, weak global cues and selling in pharma, oil, technology and select banking stocks mainly led to the market decline.

Adani Ports, HUL, Bharti Airtel and ICICI Bank were some of the gainers on Monday while HDFC, TCS, Lupin, ONGC, L&T, Bajaj Auto and Tata Steel saw a decline.
