MUMBAI (Reuters) - The BSE Sensex and Nifty fell on Friday, posting their first weekly loss in seven, as investors booked profits in recent outperformers after indexes hit record highs, while caution prevailed ahead of U.S. jobs data later in the day.

The benchmark BSE Sensex provisionally closed 0.37 percent lower at 28,458.10 points, falling 0.8 percent in the week.

The broader Nifty ended down 0.3 percent at 8,538.30 points, falling 0.6 percent in the week.
