MUMBAI (Reuters) - The BSE Sensex fell on Friday, snapping a three-week winning streak as blue chip shares such as Sun Pharmaceutical were hit by profit-taking after marking their highest level since November 2010 earlier in the week.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd fell 1.7 percent, while Hindustan Unilever Ltd lost 2.6 percent a day ahead of its July-September earnings results.
The benchmark BSE Sensex fell 0.2 percent, falling for a fourth consecutive session after hitting a string of near-three year highs this week.
The broader Nifty lost 0.32 percent.
