While significant gains in information technology and telecommunications stocks tried to boost indices, power, utilities and oil & gas sector stocks continued to bear the brunt of the losses.

The Nifty 50 index advanced 0.25 per cent to a level of 17,648.  

Watch out for these Large-Cap stocks in Tuesday’s trading session -  

GAIL (India) Ltd - As the company reported a more than 90 per cent decline in net profit year-on-year, shares of the gas transmission company plunged heavily and closed the session over 4 per cent lower. Shares of Adani Total Gas, the worst performer on the BSE Oil & Gas index today, were locked at a 20 per cent lower circuit.  

Bajaj Finance - Due to its strong quarter performance, shares of non-banking financial company (NBFC) soared over 4 per cent in an otherwise dismal market, becoming the top Sensex gainer. Today's Sensex rally was mostly driven by shares of Bajaj Finance and Bajaj Finserv.  

Adani Green Energy - Due to the tensions caused by the Hindenburg report, shares of Adani Green Energy kept falling. Being the top loser in the BSE Power index today, shares were locked at a 20 per cent lower circuit and slumped more than 40 per cent in the past five trading sessions.
