MUMBAI (Reuters) - The BSE Sensex fell on Tuesday, snapping a three-day winning streak as profit-taking hit recent outperformers such as Reliance Industries, while sentiment weakened due to falling trading volumes and as foreign investors resumed their net sales.

Infosys provisionally declined 1.8 percent, extending falls due to worries about its fiscal 2014 revenue. Reliance Industries ended 1.2 percent lower.

The BSE Sensex provisionally fell 0.61 percent, while the Nifty ended down 0.7 percent, with both indexes retreating from nearly one-month highs hit on Monday.
