Markets ended lower for the second straight day, amid weak global cues, weighed down by selling pressure in bank shares after the RBI mooted extra provisioning and capital requirement for banks' exposure to companies with unhedged forex exchange positions. Further, the weakness in the rupee and rising crude oil prices also weighed on market sentiment.

The 30-share Sensex ended down 269 points or 1.4% at 19,195 and the 50-share Nifty ended down 80 points or 1.4% at 5,777.
