Almost all sectoral indices on BSE drop

The S&P BSE IT, the S&P BSE Realty index and the S&P BSE TECK indices were the major losers among the sectoral indices.

Key benchmark indices were trading on a weak note as falling rupee and surging crude prices spooked investors. The barometer index, the S&P BSE Sensex was down 598.23 points or 1.66% at 35,377.40.
