Stock indices Sensex and Nifty fell nearly 1 percent on Monday as investors pulled out of financial, power and energy stocks overseas amid tensions in the Middle East and rising crude oil prices.
Investors stayed on the sidelines because of the huge uncertainty caused by the conflict between Israel and Hamas and refrained from taking big risks, analysts said.

Only three Sensex stocks traded in the green, while 43 Nifty-50 stocks ended in the red. Mahindra and Mahindra led the Sensex pack with 2.05 percent, followed by Bajaj Finance, Tata Steel, SBI, Asian Paints, Kotak Mahindra Bank and Titan.
