Key benchmark indices extended their losses for the sixth straight trading session on October 7, dragged by selling pressure in IT and auto stocks.

"Negative global cues spoiled investors' sentiment. Investors also awaited cues from quarterly earnings and industrial output data due this week," said Standard Chartered in a note.

Sensex closed 141 points, or 0.38 percent lower, at 37,531.98, with 22 stocks in the red and eight in the green, while the Nifty index settled 48 points, or 0.43 percent, lower at 11,126.40. Among the 50 stocks in the index, 32 suffered losses.

"Nifty is once again trading near its previous breakout zone of 11,080-11,060 zone, making it good support for the near-term. If the index manages to hold the said levels, we may see a good bounce towards 11,250 in the near-term," said Rohit Singre, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities.
